Yeah, all right. Yeah, it's good. Boom. I'm having a bit of that, yeah. Miles, I give your British accent four booms. Thank you. Boom. Boom. How does that rank with the Costco chicken bake?

My English accent, rack. How many? Do they always get five? What's their boom ranking? I don't know how many, dude. I'm just more like... Are they easy critics? Look at them.

Look at them. Look at that in Vincalckel and Ebert's thing. How many booms? And I give Forrest Gump one boom. They look like the kind of people who are like, they'll look at a special at Applebee's and be like, whoa. And they're not wrong.

Southwest egg rolls. This is a little, now this is a little adventurous for us. Russ. I was a little nervous going in. Southwest egg rolls, not my normal egg rolls. Have avocado in something that's deep red? I thought it would be weird to have a warm avocado. I'm used to having guacamole, usually at Chipotle. But this was really good. This was really yummy. And then the Southwest sauce that they put on top, there's also got Chipotle on it. Oh, buddy, I got to give me five booms. Shut the fuck up. I didn't know that you could have egg rolls that were not Philly cheese steak. I thought that was the only. type of egg roll that they existed. Yeah. That's really cheese steak egg roll.

Oh, I get a whiz wit. Egg roll. Did you imagine a cheap, like an actual deep? I mean, I'm sure they're. Oh,

yeah. Do the good ones use whiz? Or like, because I feel like that's a thing outside of Philly people are like, and, because it's just like beef and cheese egg roll. Like,

is there someone who's like, we use the same flour for the Omar Rosa roll that we use to make the friggin' wanton skin? I think it's pretty chili, like chain restaurant code. Yeah. I don't think. It's just like Philly cheese steak. It's not a

ginser thing. Yeah. Philly cheese steak pizza. Philly cheese steak burgers. Philly cheese. I think they had a Philly cheese steak burger that had the cheese steak steak on top of a hamburger. That's fucking dumb. That's too much.

That's a hat on a hat. Yeah. Yeah. Philly cheese steak. We, we top your Philly cheese steak with another Philly cheese steak. That's, I mean, Somebody who ate the Arby's Meat Mountain twice. I can't really say that's disgusting. Damn, you went back for another one. Yeah, the first time.

That's like I've been going back for the food challenge of multiple times. I just, I had to, I don't want to talk about. It was a rough time. It was 2014, man. Yeah. I hadn't, you know, I hadn't met Her Majesty yet. I was kind of on a weird path. You thought this was what your life was going to be?

Yeah. Just going around trying different meat mountains. Yeah, I thought I would suffocate under a pile of meat mountain wrappers in my room, just fucking hoarding them all as I drifted off into meat sanity. This is an I-Heart podcast.

Dude, disposable guns.

Oh, yeah. They still do. They still do. All right. My name is Jack O'Brien, A.K., oh, I would use 500 dogs, and I would use 500 more if it meant that Max could get a chance to run again in the front yard. Who's a good boy?

Who's a good boy? Who's a good boy? Who's a good boy? It took 10,000 other dogs to make you. That one, courtesy of Sam Antics on the Diff. chord in reference to the fact that Tom Brady just did a viral drop of his dead dog, just dropped a cloned version of his dead dog. And we found out that when they first started cloning dogs, this company was using the Russian

space program method of just like throwing dogs at the thing. They're just like 10,000 dogs. See what happens. We're just being used to get to one cloned dog, Sam Antix. thrilled to be joined, as always, by my co-host, Mr. Miles Gray. It's Miles Gray, aka, stop, drop, guess if Eli Lilly just flopped. Oh, no, RFK said he had to go. Okay, shout out to Peanuddy Brown on the Discord for that, because, yeah, the guy, a lot of you, in your AKA, you wrote the CEO of Novo Nord has passed out.

That's actually, that's not true, okay? Just want to clear something. That was not the guy from Novo Nordis. That was a guest of Eli Lilly and also a GLP1 patient. So that might not be the best thing to be like, yeah, my man's on GLP1. He's just like, falling down. But anyway, thank you for that. Also, I saw people being like, they said that RFK was running to call somebody on the phone.

Like, what is this, the 60s? There's just like a red phone somewhere across the room. Yeah. The fucking you're talking about. You can't be like to the thousands of people in the room with you, be like, somebody call someone he looked I mean I'll give it to him like there's a bad family history of men and his like people around him just dropping you know what I mean so that may have been like yeah you know like you know Miles were thrilled to be joined in our third and fourth seats by

two very talented writers who are two of the co-hosts of the Signal Award winning podcast no such thing it's Mani Fidel and Devin Joseph Baby and Devon! Peeombeam! What's up, guys? Can you drop like a funk Masterflex bomb as we entered the... Yeah, I'll have one ready next time. Yeah, and I will scream.

That's what we call motherfucking bars. But first you guys would have our motherfucking bars. Indeed. How are you guys doing? Doing all right. Yeah, we're happy to be here. Thanks for inviting us. Thanks for being here.

Congrats on the Signal Award for public service. You're doing a service out here. I always say that. You're welcome. You've gotten the recognition. You're welcome. Just before we start the podcast, this is a public service. Okay.

Now let's get into it. Yeah. It was like public service, social impact, and activism, I think. It was like three of these things combined into one title. But yeah, we're thrilled. Well, good work. Yeah, yeah. Thank you.

And you're welcome. in the show. I really enjoyed the shower episode. That was a blast. It may not be the one that they recognized you for, but that was. It should be. We're learning a lot about a lot of people. We've got some incredible feedback to that episode.

I bet. I was really upset that we said that they should shower once a day, at least once a day. Yeah. What you do in the shower is such like a private time. It's called what we do in the shadows. You're like doing it wrong. What are we doing in the showers? Yeah, I remember you guys talk about white people not using washcloths.

And I remember being roasted for not using a washcloth when I was like at a basketball camp in like, I was like 12 or something. And my friend was like, wait, wait, wait. So how do you wash your dick? And then like made a jack off hand motion. I was like, what? No. And used a washcloth from that. I'm sorry, did they bring their washcloths to the camp?

Yeah, yeah. They had washcloth. And I was walking to the showers and there's like, oh, you don't, you don't shower with a washcloth, huh? So you were just hands only at the time. I was hand only. Bar and soap with hands. What about these days?

Yeah, I use a sponge. There you go. Yeah, well, like a car? Just like a kitchen sponge. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah, he's a scrub daddy. Yeah, it was funny because the, our expert for the episode never said like, hey, if you don't shower once a day, you're going to die.

It's like, it's just her kind of like clinical recommendation. And we just had so many people calling in like, what the hell this is fucked up? Who was this crack? I shower once a week and I'm fine. And it's like, all right. She never said you'd be, you wouldn't be fine if you did that. She was just saying, for me, that's what I'd say. You motherfuckers.

Yeah, it's a lot of hit dogs hollering, I think. Yeah. It is a fun episode. That is the general thing you hear from people, you know, because people on the internet love a counterintuitive position. And the counterintuitive position is like, oh, you're showering every day? Like your brain and body tell you you should? Nope, that's incorrect, actually.

I don't get sunburns because I don't explain. foliate my dead skin. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's absorbing all the UVE light already. It's a natural horse sloths off my body like a lizard. You may have an advantage with melanated skin, but I have an advantage with all this dead skin on top. It's never clear, though. Yeah.

And I'm not implying that all white people are lizard people in case that's where careful. You aren't, but you know what, Jack? Some of us, we know. You will see my eyelids blink sideways. They already did. They already did. That's my favorite piece of evidence for or in favor of there being like lizard people is that there's like a glitch in a video and someone's like, whoa.

Whoa. Only a lizard would do that. Only lizard people skip frames. Yeah, exactly. Oh, my God. Dude, look at this lizard. It's in 24p. Oh, my gosh.

All right. We're going to get to know you guys a little bit better in a moment. first a couple of stories that we're talking about today uh the emperor's new clothes era is upon us uh with the extremely wealthy living like their make a wish kids in a lot of cases make a wish men jack make a way thank you let's not disparage the children yeah you just feel yeah they're just doing the wildest shit we're gonna talk about some old shit some bill actman who like bought himself onto the USDA like an ATP tour like professional tennis match, where he's like playing with a former top 10 player and got rinsed. But then, yeah, there's some new oblivious billionaires in the news that we want to talk about and the president. Then we're going to talk about the pardon fest. But a bunch of people got pardoned via Twitter. We'll ask if Gillesne is going to get pardoned.

We might even get to target forcing their employees to smile. all of that plenty more but first manny devon we do like to ask our guests what is something from your search history that's revealing about who you are Devin you want to kick us up yeah

I was looking up there's a new show out called Halen Harper I don't know if y'all are up on this no other but I have not seen it okay it's on movie it's by this dude it always makes you mad

because he's like I think like four or five years younger than us named Cooper Rife who he does these like like really sentimental like really earnest typically movies this is first TV show he produced it independently it's mark rufflow's in it leon ryanhart's in it um so my last google i was trying to see when the next episode was coming out it's out i haven't watched it yet it's a recommend it's a recommend it's definitely if you want to be in your feelings it's a hard recommend I like that you're just openly like it's a sentimental thing

and that is what I'm here for Oh yeah Yeah It's interesting I don't think I've had to Google when the next episode of a TV shows That is one of the oldest things

I've heard at the It's all You know they're doing a streaming thing But it's coming out weekly But I don't know what day At a week it comes out I just sometimes want to just pull it up So I was like

Before I go sit at My TV I want to Google 28. Yeah, it's 28. Jesus. It's wild. The young Coopers are coming for us all.

Cooper's leg. Cooper's leg is coming. Did you hear like, writes, directs, edits. It's, and he acts in it. All right.

You know what? Fuck you, dude. All right. He does the color grading. Yeah. He's the fucking EIT. He's doing fucking everything,

man. He's the gaffer. Yeah. Best boy. Speaking of up-and-coming Cooper's, yeah, did you see the news today that Cooper Flag was practicing to the sounds of Marvin's room by Drake down in the Dallas practice facility? It's that bad. He's on a bad, he's on whatever the opposite of a heater is right now. He's like everybody's like he's sucking and he's practicing the Marvin's room.

He's doing a sad boy shit possible. Because like he looks like he's practicing to Marvin's room. out there. Like he got ripped by C.J. McCollum in a game and like his whole fucking body just like slumped. Like he was just like, oh, no.

It's crazy. It's crazy just how much I guess hype and, you know, how much hype has been put on him where he feels like he has to perform. So like any little misstep is, you know, now you're listening to Drake during practice. It's tough. Everything would be fine if there weren't like

five other rookies who were like playing out of their fucking minds right now. It's like the greatest rookie class in a long time. It made me think too like, okay, Cooper Flag is how old? He's like, what, 19? Yeah. Yeah. Okay, Marvin's room came out

when I was in high school. So how old was he when Marvin's room came out? This might be like a real old classic song for him. It's like the way I was a rock station. My parents were listening to this. Yeah, that's crazy. What's this now? That's what I call music?

29. We dust this off. Mani, what's something from your search history? I've been recently searching a lot of strollers, so I'm having a kid in January. Yeah, yeah, crazy news, if you know me. Crazy of true. The last three were taken by the city. Here we go again.

The thing I was Googling was, you know, we just made our baby registrar. list and stuff and like you wouldn't believe the different combinations of strollers like just the unlimited amount of going with the travel systems yeah we're going to go with the new travel system i didn't know you were ahead it's it's kind of weird explaining myself when i'm at these baby stores i don't have any kids but i'm an enthusiast um it's really interesting in technology yeah and it depends on what you need what kind of terrain you're going over because i think the I mean, look, the wheels, I think, are the biggest factor when you're choosing some of these strollers, is what I would say. Yeah, they're all, it's like, you got to get some shocks on that bad boy, you know.

Yeah, right? Yeah, we're going to need some shock resistant. We need something that really absorbs the like potholes and the human feces on the sidewalks of New York. Yeah. Yeah. But yeah, that's, that's something I've been Google searching recently. Okay, okay. What is something that you think is underrated, Manny?

Underrated, I think this one, it's kind of cheating. because I think it's pretty adequately rated amongst the, you know, most average people. But I think the new Tame Impala album is a little underrated in my friend group, in my social circles. And so I'm using this as a platform to say, actually, you guys are overthinking this one. The album kind of rips. And I don't know, the first time I listened to it front to back, I was like, okay, it's, you know, a couple good tracks, but overall fine. But yeah, I've been finding myself returning to it. It's got like a couple club records on there.

But they like start off as pop records and then they turn into club records. So you have to kind of sit through some stuff first. But yeah, that's one thing I've been thinking about lately. Yeah, it's great. That's a great album. I have similar friends, but like a lot of us are really into Kevin Parker. So he's been talking about doing an album like this for a while. So when I finally came, I was like, great.

Let's hear it. Like everything you do is fucking solid. Yeah. Got a bad review on pitchfork. So a lot of people aren't going to find. follow it down there. There's a lot of entertainment Pola fans who are, but 4-8. Damn.

Yeah, that's crazy. They're like, this isn't lonerism. You're like, what the fuck do you think? This guy is such a wild. I don't know if you find yourself bopping your head through the album, it's minimum a five. Yeah, 4-8's really low. Then you can start to get into, yeah. 4-8's actively bad, not even like, eh, mid, you know?

Four-eight's like, yeah, you're not even trying. People just have such a problem when, like, their favorite artist does anything that's like for them creatively that like yeah deviates because so many people are like well where's the next tame impala album rather than like this is Kevin Parker doing a this is just him expressing him so this is why you're you consume art to let the artist express yeah you want something you know yeah you want some evolution then go yeah if you don't fuck let's just throw currents back in your system and bang that for the rest of the day don't worry about it oh they didn't take that one

away when they dropped this one? Oh shit. Inner speaker gone. Lonerism gone. Current's gone. Only this. How about you, Devin? What's something you think is underrated? Underrated. I'm going to stay with music.

Justice for Lord. You know, no Grammy nominations. I went and saw her live show at MSG insane. One of, I would say, the best shows I've ever been to. Oh, really? Wow. Yeah. And I bought tickets as the show was happening as the openings. It was really last minute. I was like, I don't want to spend all this money. Tickets came down a little bit. Yeah. Pretty incredible. Well, when the doors are

open, I'm sure those tickets are probably certain. You get the desperation unload of tickets. That's usually how I buy costs your tickets. And just to put a qualifier on Devin's statement, this is someone who goes to shows twice a month at least. Yeah, yeah. Right. So to say that this is the best one of ever seen is kind of nuts. It used to do one of the best. One of the best, but it's up there. It's up there. What is it?

I mean, like, I only know her from the Royals tennis court era of things. You weren't a melodrama head? No, I sadly, no, I missed that wave. I miss that way it's an underrated because there's people like Miles out there. Wow, Melodrama's an all-timer. I really like this album, too, but it translates really well live. It's like, you go to certain shows and you're like, oh, that was cool. They played the music in, like, we sort of bobbed their heads and, like, left.

But, like, the energy at MSC, I've been to MSC a lot of times. I've never seen the energy at MSC with everyone, like every song, like, let's go. Because that Trump rally was cracking, right? You were saying? Exactly. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Not since then. That's just Tony.

Not since Tony Cliff came in and told them what's what. It's electric, man. That's just that Puerto Rico joke have we seen Emmishie. bobbing like that it's so hard people didn't even know to laugh it's really sad in retrospect a lot so many of us thinking like yeah Trump campaign's finished now after that one no you remember we just were so delusional good luck it's about to get a lot worse yeah all right well what's something you think's overrated them you know game of thrones I'm gonna say it I'm just like so he came up again I know this is like, why am I talking about Game of Thrones right now?

It came up recently and I was talking to one of my friends and they're like, you haven't seen Game of Thrones. I saw the first season. It felt like homework. I didn't watch it while it was happening, which was funny because me and Manuel were working together and he was doing like recap videos and I was reviewing it, although I didn't watch the show. So I don't know what type of review I was doing on these videos.

I said that again. Mani was recapping. So you were reviewing his recaps without watching the show. I was his editor. Oh, you were reviewing. Oh, okay.

Oh, got it. Yeah. Some important context. We were working at business insider at the time. Okay. Yeah. We're big business insider heads particularly.

Oh, really? Whenever they do profiles on the most out of touch people, I'm like, yes, yes, yes, more of this. Oh, yeah. My name is Chad, and I'm, uh, my name is Chad and I'm, uh, and I've experienced discrimination. Yeah. That was one of my favorite. Yeah, Game of Thrones, I mean, I'm actually someone who, I loved the show, but I believe that it got bad before the average person thinks it got, like, started to get bad, if that makes sense. I think people are like, the last season sucked, but really when they caught up to the books, it was like an end of season four or something.

It's, you start to see, you start to see the kind of quality fall apart a little bit. Yeah. What was happening when the books caught up? Was it John Snow comeback? It's weird because some of the story. lines were caught up and some of them weren't based on how the TV show was telling this story. But yeah, it's like essentially, yeah,

John Snow coming back hasn't happened in the books yet. Wow. That is the part where it's just like, huh? It feels like TV now. Exactly. It started feeling like a TNT TV show where like the big thing happens at the end of every episode.

Yeah, the writers just kind of were like, fuck this. Yeah, I feel like Benioff and Weiss got exposed pretty quickly because now, because what, they did three body problem, didn't they? And that place? They did. Yeah. Yeah, that was a bit of a miss.

Bit of a miss. Yeah. I would watch more of it. I stuck with it through the end because they were like crunching everything down into, you know, a couple seasons. Sure. Yeah. It wasn't great. It's like a thing, you know, a trip that might take a character, a whole season, started taking them like, you know, two scenes to get to some place that's across the side of the run back.

It just got so lazy and, you know. So, Devin, Val, Val, you know. I wanted to hate on this take, but Yeah, I will say Like the highs were really high In those first few seasons, like the Reb Wedding I think is a great movie of TV Those first four seasons were actually gold

I think. Yeah, it's sort of like what Lost is like I didn't watch Lost when it came out And I was like, bro, this shit is stupid and then I got sick And one day and I had like, this is back In the air of DVDs and I had like all the DVDs And I watched it and I was like, yo, this shit is fucking crazy And then the show got worse And then I was like man, this shit fucking sucks

So it's like, I feel like I had the same experience with Game of Thrones, like, where I was, I was late to it. The first season, I was like, bro, how the fuck do you want me to keep all these names straight? Yes, it's crazy. And as like, I mean, the study guy. Yeah, exactly. As someone who kind of tries to, like, relate things in, like, an academic way, I was like, I cannot make sense of anything right now. Then it got like, to your point, there were some highs and then it turned into man, fuck this show. Yeah.

Lost, I was out on at the first episode of the second season. where it was, or the second episode of the second season, where they did the first episode again just from someone else's perspective. And I was like, oh, they don't actually know the answers to the questions. They're not going to tell me why the polar bear. They're just like killing time right now. Yeah. And I think I got out on that one too soon because I think there were like some good seasons,

but it goes right that they didn't know what the fuck was happening. Yeah, you want to at least see not Penny's boat. Yeah. Mani, what's something you think is overrated? Overrating, we're going to stay in this entertainment lane. And I feel bad about this one, but I think the movie Weapons was kind of overrated. Wow.

And I've been waiting for this take. I've been waiting for you. It's like it's about, this take is about weapons, but I think really it's about the kind of brand of horror film that is like really wants to tell you some kind of social commentary. And I think a lot of times that I just kind of roll my eyes during them. I don't know.

I feel like it. This one, this one was also a victim of social media. hype like everyone was pretending like everyone was online just being like wow best movie ever and so i went into it with that expectation so probably i wouldn't feel this feel this much feel this way if it weren't for all the hype surrounding it but yeah it's gonna be weapons for me i feel about weapons the way like uh we were just talking about the chair company oh yeah and how like there's a take that one of our listeners shared with me on reddit that like people like it's being presented

as a comedy and it's actually a psychological horror which like I think some of the episodes like some of the moments for sure that seems to be

the overwhelming experience of it I feel like weapons is the opposite where it was just like a comedy like it was like oh yeah

I thought it was really funny yeah I thought it was so like silly and there were some absurd yeah there were some absurd moments yeah

and to be clear like to the question of if it's overrated doesn't mean it was bad like I thought I liked the movie yeah

I just came out of it being like I don't everyone else seemed to have seen something else. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I thought it was a blast, but yeah, I see what you're saying. It was not what I thought it was based on the hype, for sure. The hype was, I was like, uh-oh, we got like a, we got a new level.

And it was like, no, it's like a really well-executed, good, fun movie. Yeah, at best, those movies are great, like, popcorn, flick, entertainment, where you, you know, obviously it does have a message and it's cool to think about but like people are just pretending like it was going to change gun laws in America I'm like we all need to calm down

right right right this is a it's still a movie and most standard Hollywood flare yeah was there gun messaging in there there was that part in the dream yeah the dream it's not it's not even like it's for a dumb person you wouldn't even know that it was about guns at all

yeah it was like it basically what I took to be the premise was like all right a classroom of kids disappears all of a sudden, right? So this is like a mass shooting, analogous to a mass shooting. And then, yeah, in the dream, the, I don't even know if it was an AR-15

that was flowing, floating above the house, but some kind of a assault rifle. Yeah. At that point, in the movie, I enjoyed the movie, but I started to roll my eyes a little. I was wondering if that's where you, like, sprained the courts behind your eyeballs. Because that part was a little bit,

I didn't quite know. But yeah. Yeah. All right. Let's take a quick break. We'll come back and talk about the news. Oh. Have you guys heard about the news?

Have you seen this stuff? No, what is that? Oh, you're about to find out. It's really fun, really fun. Similar to weapons. Super fun. Yeah. In the heat of battle, your squad relies on you.

It's not only about what we can do to improve our health, but also what our health says about us and the way we're living. Like our episode where we look at diabetes. In the United States, I mean, 50% of Americans are pre-diabetic. How preventable is type 2? Extremely. Or our in-depth analysis of how incredible mangoes are. Oh, it's hard to explain.

explain to the rest of the world that you, like, your mangoes are fine because mangoes are incredible, but like, you don't even know. You don't know. You don't know. It's going to be a fun ride.

What do you get when you mix 1950s Hollywood, a Cuban musician with a dream, and one of the most iconic sitcoms of all time? You get Desi Arness, a trailblazer, a businessman, a husband, and maybe most importantly, the first Latino to break prime time wide open. I'm Wilmer Valderrama, and yes, I grew up watching him, probably just like you and millions of others. But for me, I saw myself in his story. From plenty canary cages to this night here in New York, it's a long ways. On the podcast starring Desi Arnaz and Wilmer Valderrama,

I'll take you in a journey to Desi's life, the moments it has overlapped with mine, how he redefined American television, and what that meant for all of us watching from the sidelines, waiting for a face like hours on screen. This is the story of how one-man's spotlight lit the path for so many others and how we carry his legacy today. Listen to starring Desi Arnaz and Wilmer Valderrama

Ihard Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And we're back. We're back. And so, the Kennedy Center has been taken over by Donald Trump and that that was kind of the last I had heard in terms of the mainstream media and like what what has broken through is that he was taken over he fired everybody there was some speculation that it was just going to be cats every night for like seven years in a row but what's what's happening over there what's so like Rick Grinnell took over he's you know of course was him now great pick great he's one of these like magas just hangers on from the last administration who's like been so loyal to Donald Trump like has really not that much power like in the grand scheme of things he was angling for secretary of state and then they're like here take this and he's like yeah okay okay I guess I'll take this but yeah they're the Kennedy Center has been doing terribly since the takeover and people just you know rightfully they don't want to visit like that den of iniquity to take in some art anymore they just they're like this place is completely lost it they're going against all. all their values of, like, artistic expression, just general human rights.

So there have been a lot of, there's been a lot of talk. So last month, the Washington Post said only about 43% of tickets remain unsold for like a normal production. So that's not great for packing out a house. And then also they've speculated that they're probably giving away a ton of comp tickets just to get the optics to look like people have not completely turned their backs on the Kennedy Center because of Donald Trump and this administration. But again, this is not great, but this is also another reason for grifters, like the people

in the administration, to figure out how to get some kind of money flowing through the building. And in true maga fashion, they're just basically selling donors the opportunity to fucking conduct the National Symphony, just a fucking, just for fun. Like, you can do the National Anthem. So they posted this video. like promoting this new program and i'll just say this on like when this was unveiled the symphony was like we have a special guest coming a special conductor that like they were teasing this out for this performance and a lot of people were like oh my god is it going to be like someone like you know

it's going to be the guy with that crazy hair who's from l a what's that dudea what's that dudeama yeah yeah yeah yeah or before that we're the only one i know as of hecka solonin we used to have there was there's a Anyway, for the... It's going to be Victor Wembingyama? I don't know. It's got a great wings, man. Yeah, everyone can see him. At this, at this rate, you thought it could be.

Tar would be crazy. It is tar. But, like, this is how they dropped it on people. Again, they're like, we got a special person in the house. Which gets, ladies and gentlemen, tonight, we launched the first of many guest conductors of our national anthem to benefit the national... No, actually not. Please welcome, Ambassador Richard Grenell.

Okay. now he's just moving a baton just moving that shit that anyone who knows music that is not proper baton use wait what and okay i would have let them hold that for a little bit longer i would have brought them up to a fortissimo so then it just says kennedy center be a guest conductor guest conductor at kennedy center dot org so my god they are you can pay money now if you give the Kennedy Center money, you can wave a baton completely incoherently and

conduct the fucking national symphony. Yeah, unfortunately this is more evidence to dumb people who think like the conductors don't do anything. Like some people think the conductors go up there and just vibe out. Yeah. And, you know, I don't

it's obviously not true, but if Richard Grinnell's going up there and just like doing kind of these weird thumbs up motions. Yeah, it did look like he was repeatedly giving everyone a thumbs up. I wonder if they even told him they're like, because he was moving the baton like this was in one. You know, like that was

a time feature. Like this is one. You know, there's not, he's not hitting four. You know, like a proper. Anyway, as a band geek, someone used to play in an orchestra, this is like really pissed me off. Because to be a conductor isn't a fucking, that's a lifetime of work

to ascend to that kind of position inside of like symphonic music. And to just have some dickhead go up. there who's like a maga freak just wave it around a lot of people are like i'm surprised the symphony even like abided by this but also we're living in the era where i'm sure somebody protested they're like there goes your salary being in the symphony yeah well a question for you miles as a former band member then if you you know if if you were in the band and someone like rick ronnell came up to conduct what is the practical effect of that like for you and your bandmates to not have

a conductor you know how do you hit your you're gonna like you probably you've played it enough that you know the tempo. So at that point, you're not looking at that asshole to keep any sense of the time. You're just like closing your eyes tight. You're just playing it. You already know as a symphony. You know how to stay in time together. And you're just playing it. So this guy can pretend and he's like doing or the like just hitting the syllables. Yeah. He wasn't doing that. Like he wasn't doing. He wasn't even doing a good fake version of. No. Yeah. Like I feel like if you put like we're talking about this in the context of like make a wish kids like make a wish billionaires. I feel like a make-a-wish kid would have done a better job.

Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Because at least if that was their wish, yeah. They would have watched enough of it. They would be like an aficionado who had like watched it. He looked like he didn't. I mean, he honestly looked like he got up there and froze.

Yeah, yeah. He was real tight with him. Like he knew he was an asshole just for being up there. He's like, oh, this is an ass, I'm all that. He got up and was like, you know what? He was like, my haters are correct. This is a little bit of a ridiculous situation. My haters.

Oh, yeah, I'm fucking this up real bad. But it's funny because, again, he's also deeply insecure about the fact that he is running the Kennedy Center and is so out of his depth because he has nothing to do with music or performing arts that he just keeps telling this anecdote about how his husband kind of danced on Broadway before 9-11. Wow. Quote, he would bring up his, this is someone just talking about like a Kennedy Center dance director said, quote, he would bring up his husband as a way to be like, well, I know a lot about dance. because I fell in love with a dancer. Grinnell has also been quoted saying he wants the center's program to be more like Paula Abdul.

He wants the programming to be more like Paula Abdul. Can we get an animated cat to dance? That feels like a direct Trump quote. Like that's what Trump wrote in an email to him and he just repeated it back to it.

It should be more like Paula Abdul. Okay. Oh, yes, yes. It waited. Is she Muslim? Paula Abdul. Yeah, I feel like you would have an instinctual aversion to Paul Abdul's name at the very least. Well, I can't even fucking figure out what that means. It's a hard time with this.

Like, does he mean the early Paul Abdul videos? I mean, she's a great dancer, great choreographer, my first crush. I mean, also could just speak to him being like a Gen X dude who like thought the height of performance art culture was the straight up video. Paula Abdul. Or maybe the cold-hearted snake video. Could be. Yeah, exactly. Sorry.

Or, you know, virology, whatever you like. There's many to choose from. But I feel it also does feel like such a washed thing from a guy who has no idea about the performing arts scene. And he just goes, my favorite artist was that I,

well, there was that one girl who danced that like, Paula Abdul. Yeah. You've heard of Paul Abdul? How about that? They're like, we have this like experimental modern dancer from like Germany that could do it from.

I don't know. Yeah, it's so, I mean, there's a silver lining into some of these appointments where it's like, or these presidential appointments where it's like Rick Rennell clearly wanted to be secretary of state or like ambassador to Germany or whatever. And this is probably seen as like, he's like, oh, what the hell is this? This is not what I wanted. Hey, at least you get to be a, you know, MAGA celebrity for another few years, which is what most people want at the end of the day. So wave away. I just found out the cold-hearted snake video was 1988. so I was seven or eight when that came out that's I was I was so yeah this is like

what's going on what's going on well I'm just realizing like I was really horny at age like seven yeah and that's fucked up because my kids are seven and nine oh no I'm just like yo are they doing are they dealing with us right now you hear coldhearted snake playing in the other room yeah turn this abomination off who's the modern-day Paul Abdul for your kids. Who would be like Tate McCray or somebody? Probably. We are a big Tate McCray household now.

I mean, the thing is they don't like watch a lot of TV, so I don't know what it would be. But we live like a footloose house, by the way. No dancing, no any. Okay. No music. No, I, yeah, I don't know. I love that realization you just had as a father.

You're like, I know. I was like, sorry, I'm working through something over here. We're a boy. It's looking crazy. Should we pause? Yeah. I do want to talk about Bill Ackman, though, but put this in the broader context of just where we're at, because this is a famous billionaire asshole mega guy who paid his way onto a professional tennis tour. And, like, again, very insecure about it.

Like, was like, actually, like, we played well and we would have, like, done better. like he had like excuses for like why him and like a top 10 player got destroyed and erotic the forward tennis player who now has a tennis podcast called the match a quote total miss pathetic hard to watch and the biggest joke i've watched in professional tennis oh jesus but knowing uh how america works he uh followed that statement up by being like and it's not even acman i mean acman you know did great out there And you know, it's like, uh-huh. But he couldn't commit.

Just, just sort of a rolling emperors, new clothes, tour of billionaires who, like. Was he playing like a doubles match or he was playing? Yeah, he played a doubles match. And the guy he played was Jack Sock, who used to be like a top 10 player, the guy that was his partner. And then they just like, you know, just trying to see. Got their ass kicked. Where is he? Is that him in the front?

Oh, buddy. I can't tell the difference. Is that him in the front court? I think that's him. in the front. Yeah, with the white hat. Oh, now we see him on the other side of the net. Oh, this guy is such a fucking larper, dude.

He's just, like, bouncing on his toes, like he's going to do shit. You've gotten your partner's way. Okay, all right. Yeah, he just keeps running into his partner. The weird thing was, like, the days-long excuse-making on X, where it's like, you know, we don't need to know the excuses. You're old and out of shape, and you shouldn't be here. Like, actually, it makes a lot of sense that you got your ass kick.

Well, I started with a new trainer, is the thing. I should have done that so close to a match, obviously. He threw my mechanics off. He has not taken a breath of air outside of his ecosystem of, like, yes men and, like, people who he pays. And so, and everybody's, like, trying to get money from them. And, like, they're just, like, this new model of just billionaires. Like, as people are getting more and more disillusion with his administration and the, inability to pay for food like the fact that they're choosing this opportunity to be like

and now we're doing make-a-wish things for billionaires in front of in front of crowds that you all get to watch make a mockery of the thing that you love yeah isn't that what you want yeah they're always surprised to go to the cany center it's like you can't do this here man the tennis tournament like that was those those are paying people who like came to watch a tennis tournament. So that was, yeah, Bill Ackman was just doing what Joe Rogan did with the Austin comedy scene where he's like, well, I can escape the real comedy scene and create my fake bubble world where I'm good, and I'll live here instead and avoid reality. Yeah, they're going to give up on the, like, you know, no drug testing Olympics and just do like billionaire

Olympics where they like race each other. You know how many torn cabs are going to happen? They're all going to just do their calves in. I already know. I've seen it a hundred times. I mean, Trump kind of had a similar incident on Sunday. He went to the, like, it was the first sitting president to go to a regular season NFL game. Yeah. Yeah. And he, like, read for two minutes, first of all, it's, like, always hard to tell because an NFL crowd is never going to be like 100%. Fuck you, man.

But it was pretty heavily noticeable booze. It was hard to notice, hard not to notice. And like, they were, they went. on Fox News and it was like woo but the wild thing is like the on the out of touch thing he thought he was going to get a like call and response level like reaction from the crowd the the format was he reads and then they repeat like the oath of like being an American and loving the president and shit and I think he was assuming he'd get up there like I don't think reality is reaching these people I think he thought he was going to get up there like

Hendrick putting up the mic and everyone saying, A minor, like, and it was just like. That's, that's Bick. That is, yes. The thick blue. Please raise your right. They're flicking you off.

He doesn't swear them in. He thought they were going to repeat after him. He thought it was going to be like, I, but I, you know. State your name. Yeah, it's really, it's like, what makes it more noticeable is that it is an NFL game. So you have to think like there's probably a really good amount of conservatives there. That's where his people are.

Yeah. Yeah. That's like minus, you know, you're getting, you're in like enemy territory now. Yeah. I mean, we were talking last week. Like, we don't, you know, pay too much attention to polling. But, like, if you're using polling as a yardstick, his approval rating is lower than it was the day after January 6th. And that was the lowest it's ever been.

And the way he was able to bounce back from that was by not being the president. And being kicked off of all social media. Yeah, right. I still, like, it's hard for me to believe he's less than a year into his first year in offense. like yeah it's crazy it's coming along next seven years right i just like to be a friendly crowd if i was rooting for billionaires i'd be pretty nervous right now like i feel like i'm like we're not making good decisions guys like that that guy who owns cardier remember miles we talked about like oh yeah there's this guy who's like the owner of cardier and he's the only

billionaire seems to be like guys i can't sleep at night like they're going to fucking eat us Poor people are so mad. They are sick, bro. Like, yeah, it's, he must be sleeping like absolute shit right now. Well, he's, he's probably got his bunker set up like they all. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's a bunch of mouse traps. I mean, that's just be like a movement of trades people to know, like, every, every pleb should know how to sabotage a billionaire bloke, like a bunker.

To be like, where's the exhaust vent? Okay, this is what you're going to do. Okay. Like, this is how you're going to get them out. because that's the one thing. They still rely on working people to even create their doomsday bunkers. That I just hope that those electricians and ventilation people have built in some kind of like fail safe thing to be like. It's like the death star or the engineer built in the.

It's really as safe as I wanted it. I want it to be. You know what I mean? You don't know shit. They're not building that shit with their own hands. Yeah. And if you want to know how they feel about you and your role in their Apogloops bunker, there's an incredible interview with somebody. who like is a Silicon Valley

100 millionaires so he's like you know a bit of a class trader I think who he's like yeah when you have these conversations with people they talk about how or maybe it was a journalist I forgot no yeah it was Douglas Rushkoff who he had on the show

right the guy who wrote survival of the richest because I know he talked about them being like oh he was talking about how they all are trying to figure out how you kill how you kill your workers in the doomsday bunker yeah like who me tell about the doomsday bunker and like how do you like how do you protect your family from the

workers never considering the possibility that you would just like let them survive with their family come on in yeah and then there's another guy who was like in a bunch of these meetings with doomsday uh prepper billionaires in silicon valley who was like they're all like one of their favorite questions is do you shoot the pilot like the pie you need a pilot to fly you to your island do you shoot them before after yeah like after they land you got to kill them otherwise they're going to go get their family and they're going to want to come in and we can't have that for paradise season one i have not the hulu show it's this exact scenario yeah yeah i think they that is the question on the mind billionaires it's good it's good recommend all right to check

it out all right we're going to take a quick break to all watch the first season in a paradise. We'll be back to talk about some pardons. In the heat of battle, your squad relies on you.

We're back. And so the Department of Justice's Pardon Attorney Ed Martin just announced a list of pardons in the most appropriate and legally scrupulous way possible, just a posting list on Twitter. Yeah, yeah, with a great handle, too, at Eagle Ed Martin. Yeah. That's not just the thing, like, from before he was, he's still Eagle Ed Martin. That's both his Twitter, you know, at and his, like, official handle.

His play name. Yeah. One is to just go by Ed Martin. You're like, oh, shit, I should probably clean this up since I work for the Department of Justice, but everything's a joke.

Yeah. Is this a CB radio guy? Right. You got Eagle Ed Martin coming to you live. Just got 77 people, basically. We're like, all right, y'all are good.

Nothing to see here outside of your terribly violent and or illegal acts in the buildup to January 6th. But yeah, all good. Were there any big names? names on there any names we recognize i mean rudy juliani and sydney powell i think are the biggest ones you know because mark meadows yeah they they went hard they went real hard but people were like blatantly being like how do we cheat on this election yeah get donald trump to win yeah on how to skull fuck it when they certify question mark uh skull emoji uh one person that uh was on this list

too is a guy named Andrew Take who's he pleaded guilty to soliciting what he thought was a 15 year old girl for sex. It was an undercover cop. And the Daily Beast was reporting that basically he can dodge the prison

time for the sex offense because of the prison time credit he accrued after attacking a police officer on January 6. So he's skating on these like sex crime charges because of like the way this pardon is worded, and a lot

of people are like, this is very rare and also highly problematic because he pled guilty to this shit. But yeah. Yeah, a lot of people kind of joke saying that this administration is the administration of like sex offenders.

But it's like hard to argue against that when these kinds of like pardons are happening. So literally someone who's found guilty or pleaded guilty to doing this and is getting pardoned, Why? Like, because he was part of January 6. Is that right?

Yeah. But also the sex stuff doesn't matter. That's why. Yeah. What else do you want me to say, your honor? You already grounded me. Oh. I was in there for fucking three years.

God. For doing it different. I beat a cop with a fucking steel pole and I bear maced him. And I fucking solicited as what I thought was a child first. Oh, my God. Let me go. I can't do anything nowadays. You guys are being weird.

Weird. You guys are being weird, right? It's just so weird. Giuliani, too, like, pretty much ruin those poor women's lives. And was it Georgia? Yeah, he just, like, kind of, like, harassed them for a couple of years. I mean, yeah, he's lost his license to practice law. I mean, not that he was ever good on it. But, I mean, now he just had to figure out, I'm sure they're, they got to now figure out how they're going to get him the money to be able to pay off his, you know, legal fees and shit.

Yeah. He keeps his mouth shut, you know? That's one of my most. one of my saddest blocks on Twitter I've been blocked by Rudy Giuliani for a long time

I'm sorry he like as terrible a person he is like those tweets were so funny I'm just sad to not see them

anymore yeah well Elon's new block system you should be able to see him now oh you can see people

remember this is my Kid Cuddy thing Kid Cuddy has been blocked on Twitter oh kid Cuddy wow but now you can

suddenly see his tweets I can see his tweets I just can't interact with him at all what did he block you for I talked shit about one of those very bad run of albums and he saw it

Yeah Yeah yeah yeah It was you know It was like it was mean It was like He was like he was tweeting He was tweeting about like his list His kind of list of accomplishments or something

And then Devin Devin responded with like that meme of Ken Jung With the tiny piece of paper And he's like Oh yeah list of it was about the influence of that particular album all right

you know I defend Kit Cuddy on a lot of things which album specifically I forget which one it was now I think it was like 2018 it was the one before pain what's the one where he's like a demon slayer or something like that yeah oh god it was the one before that it was like kind of a rock album yeah or like

alternative yikes yeah I mean Indicud I remember was starting to wobble for me I was like yeah passion pain and demon slain. Yeah. Whatever the album was from, yeah. Oh, seminal album. Seminole album.

I mean, Jack and I decided, yeah, we decided to do this podcast off the strength of that album. I remember so influential. Realized I too have a lot to say. But that's kind of weird that you can now see. Like, so when you block someone, it just makes them invisible to you. It's like, here, let me give you the ring of power essentially. Yeah.

I mean, just what I want the perverts I block to be able to do is like to just peer at me without me knowing they're there. They're interacting. Right. Yeah. Great. Oh, awesome. Perfect. Oh, well, speaking of perverts, Galane Maxwell.

I don't know. Helene. There's a whistleblower. I think that works within the Bureau of Prisons that reached out to Democrats in the Judiciary Committee that they're like, just so you know, everything I'm hearing from here is that Galane Maxwell is about. to ask for her sentence to be commuted. So she can get the fuck out of here, honey. And so the Democrats wrote a letter to the White House being like, uh, what the fuck is going on?

What are we hearing? It says in a letter to Trump, Democrat members of the House Judiciary Committee assert Maxwell is preparing an application that will be, quote, undoubtedly coming to you for your direct consideration. And that quote, the warden herself is directly helping Ms. Maxwell copy, print,

and send documents related to this act. The warden is hands. That's not what the warden does. I've seen a Shawshank. Yeah. Worden's not there to help. The warden's there to take away music and shit. I get it.

I get it, man. So, again, she's serving a 20-year sentence at a minimum security facility in Texas because she did a quid pro quo with the Department of Justice where she's like, I never saw Donald Trump do all those things I saw him do and was a party too. Absolutely. Okay. For the record, I never saw him do anything of the. stuff that I saw him do. That's just full stop. Can I go to Martha Stewart prison now? And

they did. The letter alleges that she is either directly asking Trump to, quote, release her from her 20-year prison sentence or that she, quote, holds such tremendous sway in the second Trump administration that you and your DOJ will follow her clemency recommendations. I think it's that one. Yeah. I think it's that one. And again, this letter, she's also getting all kinds of special treatment because we said she's already in this cushy prison she somehow has like she described herself in emails to family members that her new setup has her feeling like quote Alice in Wonderland wow and you're like you're email hold on bro I don't know I don't last I check you're not getting emails from people that are locked down especially one's bragging about how

sick it is yeah and is she being like we're through the rabbit hole like through the looking glass type shit or she's just like I feel like I'm at the tea party it's so fun I think so they go to sick and I'm on a lot of drugs too the letter also goes on to say quote that federal law enforcement staff working at the camp have been waiting on miss Maxwell hand and foot her visitors were allowed to bring computers which is an unprecedented action by the warden given the security risk and potential for miss Maxwell to use a computer to conduct conduct unmonitored communications with the outside world that's kind of like a thing that happens. There's even more

put in the whistleblower, an inmate who trains puppies to become service dogs was instructed to give one of the puppies to Gilane Maxwell to play with. They're like she's not being given a prison job. She's being given the fruit of labor.

A literal puppy. Okay. Then the whistleblower told House Democrats that quote, the sex offenders meals have been customized and prepared by federal prison camp employees and then personally delivered to her and herself. Damn. She also. That sounds like room service. Also, reportedly given a special cordoned off area for visitors, as well as snacks and refreshments

for her guests. Permission to go to the exercise. Yeah, right, exactly. Permission to go to the exercise area after hours and special provisions to contact people outside the jail with the help of the prison warden. All right. This feels, I mean, it is kind of what you would expect from the Shawshank Prison Warden. It's also like, I don't know, Every prison show movie that you see, this is the sort of thing that people are watching from their cells, like, you know, not happy. Oh, wow, she really, this sex offender thinks that she's better than us. Who, first of all, can't even be in this low security prison due to the nature of her crimes. And also, even if she were due to the nature of her crimes, would not be able to even work with the puppies.

that's a privilege that they give for good behavior. But meanwhile, you're just being like, hey, man, go run one of your puppies over to fucking Galane Maxwell over there. Like, what does it mean to be punished for a crime anymore? Like, this is one of the gravest

violations you can imagine if you could sit. And first of all, you're at a minimum security prison. You should be like under the jail, as the kids are saying. You should be, we should not be getting eye messages from you. We should not be hitting us up on

Slack.com. They're like, yo, I texted her and my shit went blue. She got a hypo. What the fuck? How? Hold on. She's editing the text. She must have the new IOS and everything. Yeah, you should be in the three dots. Right. She should be frozen in fucking carbonite.

Okay? That's where she should be at. But meanwhile, they're just giving this crazy treatment. And I think, considering that if this shutdown does end, that means the house will have to go back into session. They're going to have to swear in Adelaide Grahalva.

If they don't get this other Republican in in time to try and negate her vote, because that's also a possibility. Yeah. Wait till December. Yeah, that maybe they're like, well, fuck, man, if this shit comes out, like, we just, better to get Galane out now so then we could put her on carbonite, you know. I mean, when you see how she was being treated at that other prison where they were like, you give us all your wrong.

You give us all your budget. She was in prison. Yes. And then she's like gone to this. Like a true modern American success story in the sense that she just used corruption to like pull herself up by the bootstraps of people in power. Just like Lewis Carroll had dreamed of with his book Alice in Wonderland. It's me. It's me.

Well, Mani, Devin, such a pleasure having you on The Daily Zykeyes. Yeah, where can people find you, follow you, hear you, all that good stuff.

Search, no such thing, where we listen to podcasts. It's a very good show. People should check it out. Is there a work of media you guys have been enjoying? Ooh, the new Rosalia album. is really good. Oh, it is? Have not listened to it.

It's like a movie. It's crazy. It's crazy. Oh, didn't she perform to have some wild performance last week? Yeah, I don't even know where it was. It's insane. She speaks 13 languages on the album. Not that I listen to the lyrics anyway.

But she put a lot of work into it. And it shows. It's really good. I would recommend it. Nice. And I am reading a book called Tomorrow, Tomorrow, Tomorrow, Tomorrow. I'm not sure if you have heard of it. It's kind of popular now.

It feels rife for, you know, Hollywood material at some point. Yeah, it's a book about these two video game creators in the 90s who have like a complicated relationship. It's, uh, it's really fun. Oh, nice. Sounds great. Miles where can people find you as their working media you've been enjoying. Yeah, find me everywhere at Miles of Gray. Find me on the streets of New York wearing a jacket, which I'm so excited for.

I keep talking about going to New York because it's going to be 50 degrees and that's all I want. It's 86 in L.A. Fuck all of that shit. No, we're a flawless weather right now. Yeah. I'm in my hoodie. I tried wearing a hoodie over the weekend and I humiliated myself. I'll fetishize those cold weather.

I do. It's crazy, bro. And it's, I'm still waiting. I need somebody like in the northern territories of Canada to be like, yo, come on up here, bro. I can't take you six days to get up here. Hallucinate at the top of the world. I can't wait.

um yeah also catch me talking about 90 day fiancee on four 20 day fiancee a work of media i like is actually a youtube video because with this rick grinnell thing it got me thinking about gustavo dutamel who we have a fantastic conductor of the la philharmonic uh there's a video of him just showing truly like the fuck like what it takes to be a conductor like to understand the sheet music to understand what a composer is trying to communicate through the just the performance of a symphony. And this is him talking about Felix Mendelssohn's symphony number three. But this is just a quick thing. I'll only play a couple seconds of it. The whole video is interesting because you watch him drill them on this

such a specific thing. And then it turns into like the full performance. That's not enough. Okay? Somebody have to walk with that. You know? I have to listen people walking out, you know? Anyway, it's a great moment.

That's awesome. It's just one of those things where you really understand. It's not just waving a baton. Like you are working with very talented performers and getting them all on the same page to like this whole thing is just like that first note has to fucking blow the toupee's off in the front row. No, Miles. All you have to do is put a little thumbs up. That's all my conducting. Good job, guys.
