So I didn't, I was looking at Twitter. It defined my tweet. The energy was just overwhelming. The energy was, you have a future. You need to leave. My rap career?

Yes, I'm not kidding. I leave comedy and acting for good. I just rap. Yes, I'm being serious. She's like, wait, Florida Girls got renewed. Well, I'm working on an EP right now. Yeah, actually, I'm sorry. I can't come back.

Greta, we're going to work on your album too. Mine, I'll just tell you this. And it's upsetting to me because Lil Nas X kind of like stole my area. And like he doesn't necessarily know that you know i want to i've dreamed for now four solid years of coming out with like a country disco album he kind of like cornered the country trap yeah yeah so you want to be that's a little different it is i mean look kylie minogue's most recent album was very country aust Australian country disco, you know? So, look, Kylie, you did it way before me. But, like, what I want to do is, like, I don't know.

Even, like, I'm interested in exploring, like, country dubstep. Like, nothing is going to stop me from this. Mostly because in country music, I like that you can sing about dumb shit. Right. like that you can sing about dumb shit right like a whole entire song can be like i'm sitting in my car drinking coffee thinking about my life and my coffee that's literally can just be the whole song the new track coffee yeah exactly and it was lit i mean do you guys know sorry i'm really like co-opting this conversation very quickly and this will only take 30 seconds but okay but the clock is running so i'm gonna make sure it's 30 seconds you know luke bryant who's

like a judge on american idol huge country star yes uh just like for example how dumb some pop songs are yeah one of his like breakthrough was literally i think a song titled like me my boys in a beer hell yeah And he has like drink a beer is another song like beer time. So then this could be about like fine meats and cheeses. You know what I mean? Okay. Well, I like this. We have, we got so many irons in the fire.

Cut to next year. We already have an EGOT. I'm calling it. But before we get into your brain even more, Greta, we got to tell people what we're talking about. Disney really upset a bunch of people last week because they brought up the fact that they're planning on remaking some shit that nobody asked to be remade.

But this seems to be in line with what Disney's doing. Joe Biden just joing it up as usual, saying all kinds of interesting things. We'll talk a little bit about Jared and Javanka and how smart he is and how smart they are and how they're just geniuses. Also, some alcohol trends I've been noticing and I'm curious to know about. And we're going to, you know, since Lacey's here, we got to check in on some scams. I've been a couple of scams I've been leaking out and I was like, we need to talk about this with

Lacey. So we will do that. But first, Greta, something from your search history that is revealing about who you are. I have the problem where like I can't, I mean, I just Googled how to take off a boot on a car. Wait, like a fucking immobilizing boot? Like a tutorial as to how to take off a boot. Okay, so are you not paying your parking tickets?

What's going on? Or you just wanted to see if that was... Well, my friend parked her car on my street. She got a boot put on it. She's out of the country. I was like, you have a boot on your car. It adds up too. Yes.

They say on the thing they can just jack up. Yeah. Which I think is really fucked up that they can just jack up the price. Right. Well, rather than taxing people who need to be, they'll hit you with that. I've had a boot on my car because I had too many parking tickets.

I've given LA DOT between tickets and towing, like, I would say around six grand. Oh, my. Yeah, I've been towed 12 times. No, oh, that's right. Yeah, remember, I used to tow. It's no longer a part of my narrative, okay? Yeah.

That's not who I am anymore. Put that outside of you. I'm a hoe with parking, okay? But I used to live that life. And also, I had a boot. This may be a myth, but I had a boot. Had to pay to get the boot off. Then never returned the boot.

Eventually, I threw the boot away. You kept the boot? You never returned the boot because now we take off the boot, and then it's like they're threatening you. They're like, you need to return this boot in 24 hours or else. They have no way of keeping track. That's what I said. Wait, hold on.

You can take the boot off yourself? You have to. Okay, so you go to the website, you pay the money, and then they give you a code. And then you put the code in and then you take the boot off. And now they're like, now bring my boot back. Yeah, but they don't know where they boot at. And I don't think that they like. They can't know where the boot is.

And I don't think that they're keeping They can't know where the boot is. And I don't think that they're keeping track of like license plate, boot ID number. You don't. No, they are. Of course they do. How can they give you a code to take it off unless they know where it is? Because the thing is, is the code on the boot is set like. Okay, so yeah. They know what's going to your car.

They know the VIN number. But they're not keeping track of where the boot is. But they know where the boot. They know the boot. They know that the boot, they know the boot, they know that the boot, that boot is with that car. Do you know what I'm saying? Yeah.

And sure, they can't like track where your car is, but if you get fucked and you park your car in the street and then a LA, you know, parking person sees your car, they're like,

oh, you also have a boot. And then they tow your car. Yeah. I think that they have a better tracking system now than maybe when you had your boot on the car i mean i had my boot on the car like a year you still oh man did you do the keypad a lot changed in a year that would be fun to just take your boot and just throw it on someone else's car maybe like a year and a half i had a boot on my car in college like 900 years ago unfortunately and we didn't have that key pad

thing that you have you had to call the person came. They had to give you a window of when they would come. I had to sit at my car to wait for this person to remove the boot. Damn, that's like wait for the cable man. But can I tell you something? I did my freshman year of college at the University of Arizona. And we would get college parking tickets. Yeah, exactly. Bear down.

And we would get parking tickets and you could pay them off. I thought with our bursar, like our student thing, because I'm like a fucking idiot. You're like, there's money on here. Well, they would let you buy iPod shuffles with it. I was like, why can't I pay my parking tickets with it? Turns out you can. And I had accumulated, I'm not kidding, I think like

27 parking tickets. And finally they put the food on my car. Legend. One other thing that I recently searched was which way to turn wheels uphill if you're parking. Oh, yeah. Yep. A lot of car stuff for me.

You know, I'm just a gearhead. If anything, we know you're a gearhead who's probably parking somewhere in Silver Lake. And also, last time I was here,

I'm also a teeth freak. Last time I was here, I was talking about Millie Bobby Brown's teeth. Oh, yeah. Another thing that I typed in, Hilary Duff veneers. I mean.

Oh, yeah. She went a little. She got aggressive with her veneers. She went a little overboard. Did she go back? I think she had them filed down. Yes, she did. I think, yeah.

Yeah. Well, you know. She looks great. You live and you learn. Right. She looks great. What's overrated, Greta? What's something that you think is just so overrated?

I think oat milk is so overrated. Everybody's loving this stuff. Can't get enough. Love it, love it, love it. I understand the benefits environmentally. It doesn't take as much water as it does for almond milk. But I'm going to be honest with you guys. I don't love it.

And I also don't love the calories. I was about to say, it's so high in calories. And I don't love the sugar. But are you a usually alternative milk drinker? I am because I'm severely lactose intolerant. Got it. And you prefer? I prefer almond.

I'm sorry. Oat milk I liked for two weeks. I was like, this is great. It felt like a breakfast shake almost. It's like much thicker. Yeah. But then after a while, I just lost momentum. I was like, okay, thank you.

Yeah. But I guess I'm not, just lost momentum. I was like, okay, thank you. Yeah. But I guess I'm not, maybe I need to up my alternative milk intake and just stop drinking half and half every morning. No, I mean,

look, I think that if you can mess with half and half, like bless you and you are superhuman. Oh yeah. I just, I just like to have a,

I don't know, four ounces of half and half every morning. Just a splash of coffee in there. You should. Just to get my phlegm up. A few shooters of half and half. Exactly. We call them of coffee in there. You should. Just to get my phlegm up. A few shooters of half and half. Exactly.

Why not? We call them Barbie milks. That's great. Those little tiny things from the, whatever you call them. Diner. I love that. That's the word I was looking for.

What is something that's underrated? Nail clippers. Go on. Now keep talking that talk. I just think that nail clippers, we use them all the time. If you don't have one, you desperately need one. Do you know what I'm saying?

It's like one of those things where all of a sudden you look at something and you just need it. And I think it's an underrated invention. I don't think we show it enough love for how much it actually helps us us in our lives and i think it's just the kind of thing we toss in the drawer we shove it away when we don't need it but it does helps us a lot you know it makes our feet look presentable it allows people to get fingered you know what i'm saying and i just think bacteria yeah wash your hands and I'm just saying I think that like a nail clipper

we all we all know one in our life and we all have one in our life and I think that we need to take a moment to look at that clipper

and say thank you yep for all that you do for me but still people are disgusted at the sight of someone

cutting their nails it's just the funny part it's a shameful activity to do it alone. You do it in private. You do it in your private. You do it absolutely in private, and you do it in your bathroom, and you do it over the toilet or over the sink or over the garbage. I usually do it when I'm waiting for my broccoli cheese soup in a bread bowl at Panera Bread.

Yeah, that makes sense. Yeah, that's not where we want it. Just get my big toe out. I'm like, yeah, I'm here. It is a private activity. Yeah. But I think it is just like an underrated thing. I also think that like more people,

if you like manicures, pedicures, very highly rated, but also just like taking care of your own little nails. Right. It's funny. My, my partner,

her majesty, she does not show when she first saw me cutting my nails, she acted, she got, so, buddy, why are you doing that? It gets everywhere. What she didn't know is that I was using a Japanese nail clipper that has, like, the guards on the sides, so when you clip your nail, the shrapnel just doesn't go flying. It's caught right there. It's caught right there.

I didn't know that. See, this is what I'm saying. I'm looking at your hand smiles, and they're good. They're nice. Well, they're all right. I bit, I'm not going to lie, I'm looking at your hand smiles, and they're good. They're nice. They're all right. I'm not going to lie. I had to bite my middle finger nail off recently.

It was jagged. It got caught on something, so I had to bite it off. Well, from over here, they look great. I will say that nails, it's an investment. Men especially, you can lose love over nails. I look at men's hands immediately. Me too. And if your hand looking sus, nah, nah, nah. If you have long fingernails as a man.

Or the long pinky nail. No, okay. That cocaineils as a man. Ooh, that long pinky nail. That cocaine pinky nail. That's crazy. That weed pinky nail. The only excuse you have for having long fingernails is if you play classical guitar. Classical guitar, thank you. And, by the way, if you are playing classical guitar, you better shred. Like, you better

be incredible. Don't bring it yet. No half-stepping with those long fingernails and you can't even play? Yeah, exactly. It's like,

come on. Yeah, and if you're doing drugs with your pinky nail, you better be a drug lord. Yeah, exactly. You better make a lot of money.

Or if you just do the baller move and have like the big pinky ring that you can just put your cocaine in. Yeah, it's just something about modifying your body and your hands to do drugs that I just can't get behind. No, it's just something about modifying your body and your hands to do drugs

that I just can't get behind. It's like, be like all of us and use your fucking car key. Right. Like, get a little spoon. Or a parliament filter.

It's the recessed filter. It's very college. It's all stuff I've seen on TV. Yes. I saw this all with my real eyes. So if I'm ever running for office, there's no ambiguity

about who I am as a person. I've seen it all and I've done it all. Listen, after Trump, nobody gives a shit what you did. They'll be like, this guy did drugs. Like, so? So? And?

Even when Bush was in office, he was like, yeah, I partied and did blow. Yeah. And like, yeah, I was a C average at Yale or something. Yeah, you know, I was farting off that blow. Greta, what's a myth? What's something people get wrong that you just want to set the record straight on? I think that we need to clarify that mercury can be found in all raw fish, not just tuna. Wow, really?

Yes. Thank you for that important service announcement. Yeah. Is it because I'm not okay fine and you don't know why i'm bringing this up and this is why it came to my mind i've been dealing with a lot of like acne skin related issues since living in la and i went to this like great i go to this facialist who i love and she was telling me about one of her other clients who had like similar kind of like patterned breakouts as me and she was was like, this client then went to this like, you know, some LA like holistic

whatever. And she found out that she had like very high levels of mercury. Wow. And then I was like, well, like I don't really eat too, like I don't really eat that much raw tuna because I've always been scared of the mercury or like canned tuna or blah, blah, blah, blah. And then I was like doing some light research. Turns out mercury can be in a lot of things from the sea.

Ah, well. What are you going to do? So, you know, was that a fun thing that I just said? I don't know. Well, it reminds me. Didn't Jeremy Piven get really sick because he was eating sushi every day? If you are slamming that much fish that you are getting legit mercury poisoning. It's too much fish.

It's just, that's just so much. You need to be eating it like every single day. I used to work at a sushi restaurant, like a really fancy sushi restaurant, and everyone would always come in like, so where is this fish from? Is this from Washington? Is this from Wildcat?

Is this from Alaska? And it's like, bitch, whatever I tell you, you gonna believe. So why are you even asking? I know. If you wanna know where it's from, you need to Right. Scotland, yeah. Yes, it's the most Scottish fish.

It came in with an accent, actually. Like, what do you want me to like? Come on now. People just wanna hear something that makes them feel comfortable consuming what they wanna consume. I just wanna add to your myth and say, yeah, if you go to a restaurant and you're asking where the fish is sourced from, yeah, I would get told where the fishes were

sourced from, but I'm not even sure my managers knew where it was sourced from. They were coked out all the time. They were just saying stuff to us. I cannot tell you what restaurant now because I've said too much. If you go to past episodes, you can figure it out. Damn you. I think I know what you're talking about.

But also, you're talking about the restaurant industry generally. Sorry not to put all that on blast, but we know that it's an intense work environment, similar to the emergency rooms. Right. Look, eat your fish, stay safe. Don't try and ball like Jeremy Piven. Yeah. I wish I had a better myth, but I don't.

There aren't levels to these myths. You know what I mean? You actually gave information. We've had people come in here and just literally bring up Greek myths. Yeah, and I love Greek mythology. And that was actually one of my favorite ones. No wrong answer. I will say, though, I am coming out with a fish, y'all, and it will be mercury-free.

What's it called? My fish. Save it for our album. save it for our band uh my fish is called a water dog oh wow because you know my fish mercury free i think that you should actually i think that your rap name should actually be water dog and that's a horrible rap name. I would never name other than a dog. Yo, Mercury Free is like a sick MC name. Yeah, Mercury Free is good. That's good.

Welcome to the stage, motherfucking Mercury Free. I would like that. I like Mercury Free. It sounds weird, like it's mercurial, it's bringing up the planets, and then it reminds me of Free

from 106 and Park. Yes. I wonder where you are, Free. I know I was about to say RIP, but she's probably like. Is 106 and Park still a thing? Oh, no. It was. And then, yeah, it only recently ended because then Bow Wow was hosting it for a second.

Right, but then who, there was a. There's AJ and Free. But wasn't like Kiki Palmer or something like that hosting it at one point in time? No, she had a TV show. A later days, I feel like they had all kinds of people. They had guest hosts for sure. Because they didn't have anyone. Anyway, we digress.

I love Kiki Palmer. Well, we should talk about that after this break. Okay. 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 Delia.

Listen to the making of a rivalry Caitlin Clark versus Angel Reese on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcast and we're back um okay so one thing i just wanted to bring up from last week kind of old news but still interesting to hear everyone's thoughts disney with their whole new disney plus

streaming service they also talked about about rebooting some new shit. First, we found out that there was a Lady and the Tramp IRL reboot. I don't know if you guys see this. You seen this? No, but what do you mean? Like live action Lady and the Tramp? Real fucking dogs just doing Lady and the Tramp. Making out? They're going to have a make out? I don't know. Justin Theroux, I think Lady and the Tramp. Making out?

They gonna have a make out? I don't know. Justin Theroux, I think, is the tramp. And I think, who else is in it? I think Janelle Monae is a character. You know, I just, what upsets me about all of that is like the animation for those Disney classics is so beautiful to me. Like it's so classic and like whimsy I don't know if I necessarily need to see

like a real King Charles Spaniel hook up with like a real Cocker Doodle Do Scottish Terrier right? I think that we've gotten too broad with the live action I think the live action works when it was like Maleficent and stuff where it's like a lot of people are involved but I feel like when we start

getting into all these cats and shit and then birds and then we've got to go underwater. Okay, well, Cats, the live, the human movie looks like a crazy thing. Why do the cats have breasts? I don't know. Anyway. They should have more titties, really, if I'm going to be honest. They should have like six in a row.

If we're going to go there, yeah. Just go full. Or commit to the titties that they, if I'm going to be honest. They should have like six in a row. If we're going to go there, yeah. Just go full. Or commit to the titties that they have. A different kind of six pack. It's like a cat body, but then there's a lump there. Like, what is this? Everybody should be banded down. Also, like, I didn't really particularly enjoy the live act.

Oh, God. I can't say this, really. The Lion King? That's what you're about to say? You said that. I did not. But that's what you mean. Beyonce, I would never say that. Beyonce, I would never say that.

Beyonce, I would never say that. I don't want to see live-looking cats. That's like having living room cats. It's just like a weird Planet Earth episode. There's something. There's something. But then it makes me wonder. I'm like, are the younger generations,

because they're so used to seeing more realistic-looking things, like renderings of things are they more attracted to watching like a semi live action well caitlin gill made a point last week that this is all just a part of a campaign to just use our nostalgia to extract as many dollars out of us as possible yeah because it's just sort of like just like in the same way the lady in the tramp is probably like the first animated dis Disney films I can remember seeing. I feel like before anything else, I really have a memory of seeing that first. It's the kind of thing where I already have an inbuilt curiosity about it. So when it comes out, I might go like, yeah, maybe I'll check that out.

Different than other things where I might be like, I don't give a fuck about this new story. But it works on you like that. I feel like the first movie that Disney made a live-action version of was 101 Dalmatians. And wasn't Meryl Streep? Am I making that up? Glenn Close, I think. Or Glenn Close. Yeah, it was Cruella de Vil.

Glenn Close was Cruella de Vil. Yeah. Yeah. But see, that was good because the dogs weren't really talking that much. I don't think the dogs spoke. The dogs didn't talk at all, right? That's how it has to be. I feel like Lady and the Tramp is going to be too much dog talking.

And to show them that Sam Elliott is playing the bloodhound. Oh my God. Which makes sense. They kind of look, yeah. That's good casting. I'm not upset with the casting. What the hell is the point of a guy looking like a dog if you're not going to see him? Ashley Jensen from Extras is playing, I think, the lady.

And yeah, a few other things. And Justin Theroux is playing the tramp. Yes, I believe so. And then I feel like there are other people, but I, a few other things. And Justin Theroux's playing the tramp. Yes, I believe so. And then I feel like there are other people, but I just can't remember enough. How do you guys feel about the live-action Mulan that's going to be coming out? Because I'm actually excited for that because Mulan was a movie for me that I watched like 90 billion times. Sure. I think it'll be fine because they're just trying to make it a different thing, not about the cartoon itself, but the story. Yeah, they're killing all the music, too,

because a lot of it was problematic. So I'm interested to hear these new Mulan bops. I don't think there's... It won't be a musical. What? It's not going to be a musical? It's like treating her story as about this hero. It's like a proper film.

So she doesn't like to defeat the hordes? No, I don't think so. I like... That is a good song. I thought they were just going to sanitize the bullshit. No, I don't think so. I like, that is a good song. I thought they were just gonna sanitize the bullshit. No, I don't think so. I could be wrong, and I'm just not as invested. But the thing I am is the fucking Home Alone remake

they're talking about making, which again, everyone was sort of like, we were fine with all the other remakes, but what the fuck are you even thinking? Because everyone, the first thing they point out is like, the fucking whole movie is solved with a cell phone. Yeah. Hi, mom.

I'm fucking home alone. What the fuck? Oh, my bad. Hop in an Uber. Meet us at the airport. Sending an Uber right now. Yeah. How amazing would that be?

Like, how catcher in the rye if you just went and like it was solved in like five minutes and then they just rolled credits on you. That would be really funny. I would like that. I would like that. That would break the internet. I want a movie to troll me. You going? If you think about like so

many movies that put characters and predicaments like that, a cell phone solves all of it. Right. Yeah, the cell phone. I mean, look, we'll see what they do. We'll see what they do. I don't need it. Also, like now parents are like geolocating their kids. Kids have microchips in them.

Yeah, it's just, you're not losing the kid. And also, yeah, like these kids now with the internet, those fucking burglars would probably get hit with some kind of like crazy death trap. They'd be like, oh yeah, I turned this nail gun into a fucking... I don't know. I feel like you could still burglarize places pretty easily.

I know, but I'm just thinking like, you know how Kevin, he set up the paint cans and all those other shit. Yeah, like who got time for that? Like what's the 2019... Well, if they're going to really honor it, I want to see someone just really harm people who have no other financial recourse except burglary. No, Home Alone is like, home alone.

What happens when two burglars mess with a nine-year-old internet savant? Right, exactly. Or it's like the woke version where he's like, come on in. He's like, you guys must be in a really terrible situation. Yeah, you must be feeling a lot of pain. Like, how can I help you? It's so sad to think, too, on Christmas, you're probably only stealing because you want a good Christmas for your family.

Right. Yeah. And then it cuts to them getting back on their feet and shit. It's like the blind side. It's like a rehabilitation story. Yeah.

We don't need it. Yeah. How do we stop them from doing reboots? How do we as a public stop them? Stop buying fucking tickets. I don't think we can

because the thing is all of these studios just want to invest in like okay no one is going to like movie ticket sales like actually like the thing is all of these studios just want to invest in like okay no one is going to like movie ticket sales like actually like breaking the box office to do that you need to have like a Marvel movie or like

a huge scary movie but other than that like or be like Tarantino like nothing is really driving people to the movie theaters anymore because everyone's using streaming shit, I think. So then these studios are like, oh, let's look at these titles that are still so popular. They need like tentpole events.

Maybe we already own the rights for and then let's redo it. Like that's the thing because they already own it. Right. So it's not like they're buying something new. Well, the one thing they love is contained thrillers. You know what I mean? Yeah. But we have to stop them. That's cheap. Huh? Yeah. Right. So it's not like they're buying something new. Well, the one thing they love is contained thrillers. You know what I mean? Yeah. But we have to stop them.

That's cheap. Huh? Yeah. Right. In a house. Well, the only way it's. She's just running away from a man. I mean, all the evidence.

We are at a lake and that is it. That is it. 90 minutes at a lake. Just terrified in one room. We shot it in 15 days. It's pretty good. No, truly. Yeah.

No, I know. And then they know. I've done one. Exactly. But those contained thrillers are really the wave. It's not out. But it was on Orcas Island in Seattle. I want to go to Orcas Island.

I've heard it's so beautiful. It's gorgeous. Was it beautiful in the film too? Or was it a sight of horror? Yeah, it was absolutely beautiful. Yeah, it was horrible, but it was beautiful. Okay. Like when you're not shooting, you're like, oh, it's beautiful.

And then that's it. And then you're back. Well, let's talk about And then that's it. And then you're back. Well, let's talk about, you know, another reboot that's happening. Joe Biden. He's trying to reboot his fucking brain because he keeps saying, I don't know. Look, I don't I don't really think this is a fatal gaffe because I just think it's just telling of how Joe Biden sees the world. But last week he was in Des Moines, iowa addressing a group of people at a town hall and he he had this bit of a slip up saying that poor kids are just as bright as white kids

basically and the other thing we should do is we should challenge these students we should challenge students in these schools to have advanced placement programs in these schools we have this notion that somehow if you're poor, you cannot do it. Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids. Wealthy kids. Black kids. Who started clapping? I don't really mean it, but think how we... Who started clapping so early on that one?

Well, that must have been a handler. I don't know. I mean, I think... Yeah, someone was like, and distract them with clapping. And we're dancing and we're dancing the funny thing is that was said at a town hall for the latino and asian coalition oh god so i mean you know i think maybe they were i think the clapping was they were understood the point he was trying to make but he said it it's funny you know we were saying like well in a way he could have just been like funny, you know, we were saying like, well, in a way,

he could have just been like, yeah, as white kids, because we know how society looks at minority kids and took the woke path suddenly. But he then was like, and wealthy kids. And you know what I mean?

But I think that's the issue is that like, I get it. Thinking on your feet is tough. You're talking a lot. And I understand that there's going to be snafus there there always are but i think this is so indicative like it's so um enlightening on how he thinks as a person that it's just something that we can't ignore although i'm like there's an intersection

here of like what about poor white right but look but i think if he had really took the woke path it would have been dope because basically what you're saying is like you can be a rich person of color and you're still not as good as the poorest white person in the society wow and if he had said that i would be like damn joe damn who's this joe biden's uh campaign merch looks like knockoff obama merch yeah it's like joe bama like that's literally what his merch looks like jo Joe Obama. Yes, we did. I just did not. Yes. Yes, we will again.

Yes, we will again. We'll do it one more time. Hope is still here. Yes. Okay, we call it a joke with a J. If you say it like Spanish, it's still the same. Hope. There you go.

That's very woke. Right? Very woke. Yeah, I'm just like not here for Joe Biden. Well, you know, and I think his surrogates and like people who are, you know, there to defend him are like, you know, the point he was making, I think, is clear. And this isn't necessarily racist or whatever. And like, yeah, I'm not here to. No, it's not racist.

Like he's Joe Biden. He's from a fucking era where people would just out loud be like, you know, I think these colored kids, they're just as bright as white kids. That was considered a nice guy. And they're like, whoa, this dude's woke. We threw that guy a parade. Yeah. Exactly. They're like, let's celebrate him for what he's doing for us.

He's like, hold on now. Just because they look different, I think the brains might be the same. The insides might be the same. You can watch any of those movies that white people love to thrust into the Oscar category every year. All their white savior movies. And there's always some white guy who's just doing the bare minimum. And we're like, he's our king. he's like having who like has a speech like in his office to like other like white people that are like maybe their minds are closed and he's like

you don't get it well like they're non-white people think too exactly they're like wow and then that's the whole movie right he gives his gives his black nanny slave a Christmas dinner, and everyone's like, look at that guy. Wow. And she ate at the table. White people food. Or he's like, you know what? You take this day off.

Right. And it's because she's like, her dad died. Yeah. No, no, no. You know, you deserve a day off. You deserve it. Yeah. But be back tomorrow at noon.

Right. Well, we're equal as the 1970s bare minimum. Right. Because right now, in 2019, we're looking for we're equal. Also, we know that we kind of left y'all on empty the whole time. We need to refill the tank so you can catch up. Right. That's the 2019 version where it's like, I mean, we're all the same.

And that's where it ends. I'm dying for someone to just be like, I will completely abolish AK-47s if I were to become president. Not just bump stocks, like everything. Well, that's the next slow-moving thing because obviously with all of the shootings, too. The interesting thing is Walmart, they just took down their video game displays for violent video games but are still selling guns. Walmart. This is like the funny thing that there's still this like movement to be like, let's try and address every single thing except for the weapons first. Wally World went downhill when Mr. Walmart, what was his name?

The one who started it? The Waltons. Because didn't it used to be like if you worked there your whole life, you'd retire a millionaire or something like that? Is that really how it was? Yeah, it was. Really? And then they took that away. Yeah, this is a real thing.

I mean, you had to dedicate your whole life to Walmart pretty much. But if you did, you would retire a millionaire. They used to take care of their employees. Now they fired all their greeters. And then just destroyed middle America and all the mom and pop stores that couldn't compete. Well, you know, it's an American story, right? It's about just laying waste to those that are weak. So, yeah, Joe, we'll see what happens.

One thing is Elizabeth Warren should know she is steadily gaining traction. So keep an eye out for her. She's eating into a lot of other candidates support. So, yeah, I just hope that women will vote for her. Yeah, well, I don't you don't hear the same thing. Like, I used to hear last time around immediately being like, I hate, I can't stand Hillary. Right. And I've not heard that because I think it was easy to have that take about Hillary because the name was around so long. It was easy for people to think they knew everything about a candidate.

Right. Rather than I think they were just maybe upset about the dynastic nature of the Clintons. Obviously, and the myriad of other things that's wrong with them uh in terms of being leaders but i think with elizabeth warren not enough people know enough to me like oh i can't stand her yeah because i don't know what you would hillary was a career politician and you know was born campaigning from the womb like she came out the womb start shaking hands like she was in it yeah but i mean i think that she might have cracked that ceiling and maybe Elizabeth can break through it. I don't know.

But I worry about women because women have been trained to hate other women. And it's a real thing we have to look out for in the Democratic Party. I worry about women and I worry about moderate voters. I worry about people that would be like, yeah, I would vote for Biden, but if Biden doesn't get the nomination,

I'm not going to vote for someone that is more like socialist leaning. But I thought that we all agreed as Democrats that it was like, whoever gets the nom, we're camping for them. We'll be out here in the streets. I'm going to pretend that they're my best friend. That's the same shit though. But that's the same thing with the female vote. Everyone thought that they were going to turn out for Hillary Clinton.

I think there's a lot of internalized misogyny that women have. the same thing with the female vote. Everyone thought that they were going to turn out for Hillary Clinton. Everyone, I think there's a lot of internalized misogyny that women have. And I think that I'm sure that I know some people that are like, yeah, I voted for Hillary and then in the booth when they're alone didn't vote for Hillary. And not to say that they voted for Trump,

but they didn't vote for either. Do you know what I'm saying? Which hurt us. Which definitely hurt us. I think, yeah. And we talked a little bit about this the last time I was here. It's just like we really have to galvanize women in general. I'm going to keep it general today.

But to vote for. White women. Yeah. White women. White women. Support each other. Well, no, because they turned out for Trump. As a white woman, other white women please like

i don't know i just well they interviewed women um and they were mostly trump supporters um at the time and some of them were had voted for democratic candidates in past years and they talked about how they're like i just don't think a woman can do the job as a woman i just don't think a woman could do this job direct quotes on c look, the patriarchy has hardwired some shit into all of us that takes generations to break that programming. And like,

I understand that, but it's a scary time. Well, you know, we have to take it day by day. We don't live in the past. We don't live in the future yet. We're going to live in the present. Well, I think that Hillary

might have cracked that ceiling. And I think that if Warren gets the nomination. I think that she definitely made progress. I think that every little thing is progress. Absolutely. Do you know what I mean? I just hope that the like old white men that are still running things over at the DNC would even let someone like Elizabeth Warren get the Democratic nomination.

Right. Yeah, that's what we'll see. So that's a whole other thing. Right. Elizabeth Warren get the Democratic nomination. Right. Yeah, that's what we'll see. So that's a whole other thing.

Right. Hey, but look, if we saw how powerful Joe Biden's ability to get the digital presence out there, you know, and the digital support. So if enough people go to Joe 30330, maybe he will have the numbers to do it. But I don't know. People forgot that when Obama was running for president, Joe Biden was a liability. And we all knew this. We called him Uncle Joe. I don't know. People forgot that when Obama was running for president, Joe Biden was a liability. And we all knew this. We called him Uncle Joe.

We literally came up with a name so that anytime he says something wild, we're like, oh, Uncle Joe. Oh, Uncle Joe, touch that lady. Oh, Uncle Joe, stop touching them ladies. Stop grabbing them kids so hard on their shoulders. Right. Uncle Joe. Yeah. Yeah.

So it's like Uncle Joe has changed. He's still Uncle Joe. Well, someone who has changed, flawless pivot, apparently is Jared and Ivanka Trump. There was this new podcast coming out that has a lot of interviews with Ivanka's friends and colleagues. And it's all about the making of her. And there's also stuff about Jared Kushner that is kind of like no shit obviously but when you hear it like confirmed you're like oh my god this guy's a fucking idiot so the biggest I guess talking points out of this this podcast and these interviews was that Jared he saw the Trump presidency completely as a way to get out of his own debt that he had was like yep that's what it is and we already knew because the way he was dealing with the

with like the Qatari government he was only focused on getting himself out of debt on that massive building. He was like upside down on in Manhattan, but not only that, like he really, really was because he saw DC as the way out of debt, like insisted that they moved to DC. Um, and, and Ivanka actually didn't want anything to do with that. Apparently Ivanka was telling telling her friends she wanted to remain in New York and Kushner, quote, argued for DC, saying they needed to protect her father. And by the way, now anything and everything was theirs for the taking. And then he was asking journalists like for like how to be a power player type lessons. lessons. So he would, it says, there's also a claim that the New York Post reporter would meet with Kushner for lunch or coffee monthly for a few years. And that quote, he came off as a deer in headlights and wanted the reporter to tell him how power players and the media operate.

Jared and Ivanka wanted to see themselves in the tabloid all the time. But once they married, the reporter said, Jared didn't want stories about them attending parties and wanted them Oh my gosh. This is a scammer. Kushner's a scammer. Oh, yes. Absolutely. And his most recent scam was going under and he was like, how do I get it back? The government.

Shout out to him, though, because a lot of scammers have too much ego to try to learn for their new scam. And if you just take a little time to get some education before you start running a scam, you can keep it up longer. Yeah. So this is textbook. He went in kind of hot. Yeah.

Not enough finesse to it. Exactly. He just had the heart. And he got lucky that the scam turned, the universe opened up a presidency for him. Somehow. Whatever he's on. I mean, he might have been talking to Marianne Williamson or something. He deeply makes me ill.

Yeah. Yeah. The idea that Trump thinks he's so intelligent and, like, looks like, oh, he went to Harvard, and so he knows everything. There's this other story, too, that Rod Blagojevich, who's the former governor of Illinois, who's basically, like, selling off Obama's old Senate seat. Like, he went to jail for that. Nobody on the left is like, damn, what happened to him is fucked up. He was

corrupt and you're like, yeah, you fucked up? We let our people go to jail. We fully let our people go to jail. And the Republicans are like, no, none of our people can go to jail. We don't care what they did. He is a good man. Okay, he murdered that family. But he's a good man. He's misunderstood.

He comes from a good family. He murdered that family, but he loves his kids. That family misunderstood when he took their lives, okay? If you think about it, heaven's better than here, right? Yeah. So he helped them. So, case closed. He let them go into God's arms earlier. That's my gavel.

The thing with, Jared was telling Trump, he's like, you should commute his sentence or get him out of jail. Because then the Democrats will be like, this guy's dope. Completely misreading the whole thing it's the same advice he gave when uh he like when he was like yeah if you fire james comey the democrats will like it because um he was looking into hillary clinton and because of that they hate him rather than like yeah that's not how we work exactly but again those power player lessons i don't think we're paying off yeah i don't think these were good lessons i feel like cushioning was getting trolled. I just think that I, in my fantasy, he gets arrested. Yeah, for sure. Also, he was asking the wrong people.

Kushner's dumb. Why are you asking press people how to be a power player? If you want to be a power player, go hang around other power players. Use your name and your influence to go whatever back bar they at. DJ Khaled. In the dark. You know what I mean? People like that, though, they let their egos interfere.

Like what you're saying about scammer egos, when you want to find a shortcut. It's like cheating in school. I take back my praise because he did cheat. You know what I'm saying? It's like, okay, you're asking someone that for their life is an observer. Someone that like a reporter is like someone that observes people's behaviors

and writes about it. Exactly. And you'd think that that person would be a safe person for you to go to and kind of like learn from when in reality he actually should have really done the work and like talk to the actual power players that he wanted to

be around and with. He's got enough to leverage I like how we're upset that he didn't finesse this enough. Yeah he didn't do this correctly Well because here's the thing if you want to like really be scamming for real like that then if you want to walk the walk you gotta talk the talk. Yeah exactly Well people who are doing that

Or I guess talk the talk walk the walk whatever it is. But this gives me hope. You gotta walk it like you talk it It gives Yeah, exactly. Well, people who are doing that... Or I guess talk the talk, walk the walk. Whatever it is. But this gives me hope. You gotta walk it like you talk it. It gives me hope. Walk it like I talk it. It gives me hope, though, because he's not good at scamming.

He obviously doesn't know how to be a longtime power player, which means that just like his building that went under, this will also go under because he's not good at it. Well, he was able to get that money, though. Yeah, that's true.

He did get that money. But you know, he could still lose it. Oh, yeah. Oh, 100%. It can all go in a flash. It's all scammers now. One thing I just want to bring up really quick is that another scam people are doing, I think,

is really riding this wave off the interest of the Chernobyl series from HBO because there's a new vodka out called Atomic. I'm here for it. With a K. With a K. And it is being used. It's produced with the grains and water from Chernobyl's exclusion zone.

Right now, there's only one bottle in existence. And how much is it? So people are like, well, it's because these people wanted to make it and be like, we've done it. We've made the thing. Now, it's apparently a team of like are actually the ones making this. And this is basically just a huge publicity stunt. But the idea is actually – so the whole thing is these researchers, they found grain and water that were in this exclusion zone.

And the shit was radioactive. The grains, they say, were slightly radioactive. Okay. shit was radioactive the grains they say uh were slightly radioactive okay the amounts were strontium 90 were just a smidge above i guess normal safety level but i guess that what is the normal safety level i don't know it's i guess it's barely what is a smidge well look look do you want to get fucked about chernobyl vodka look bill nye i'm trying to get radio act late okay yeah you think i've been fucked up before wait until you see me get radio act lit. I know. Yeah, you think I've been fucked up before. Wait until you see me get radio fucking active.

Yeah, exactly. But apparently it's different because when they distill the grain, it's going to remove all the impurities. So it's actually perfectly safe to drink. And the water, just so you know, it's from an aquifer deep in the town of Chernobyl. And they say it's free from radioactive contamination, similar in chemistry to the groundwater sourced from the Champagne region of France.

Okay, but like here's my thing about that. Then why do we not have Champagne water? We have, you know what I'm saying? Why do we not have water from that region? Well, I think that's just to say that the water is supposed to be that amazing. Then like where's the bottled water of that at? I guess I think that's just to say- Because if the water is supposed to be that amazing, then where's the bottle water of that at? I guess just for growing the grapes, really, if we're getting into the vineyard, the wine

growing aspect of it. But water chemistry for grape growing is very different than what we need to drink. I wonder if you drank, you're like- Yeah, I'm curious, what's the pH of that water? Wow. Is it like Icelandic glacial? Shout out to great pH water. If the water in Champagne, France is that dope,

why don't we have champagne water? Wow. Do you have a competing vodka brand? Right. I think you might. I do want to like, my goal is when I'm like huge celeb, celeb to have, of course, high-end alcohol. George Clooney has Clas Amigos.

Exactly. Well, they sold that. Oh, yeah, Paul high-end alcohol. George Clooney has Clas Amigos. Exactly. Well, they sold that. Oh, yeah. Paul Mitchell had Patron. Ryan Reynolds has Aviation Gin, which is now the biggest gin company.

Wait, Paul Mitchell was behind Patron? Yeah. Really? Paul Mitchell hair care? Yes, hair care. Why do you think the hair care was green

and the Patron was green? Ba-ba. Wow. You know what? That's called cross-branding. Yes, but so subtle. So subtle. I should try to drink his hair products.

Maybe they... Wait, hold on. Casamigos sold, so now George Clooney has nothing to do with that? Yeah, so Randy Gerber and George Clooney, whoever the third and fourth dude, they sold it for like a billion dollars two years ago. Whoa, so it's done. But they still use their likeness because

yeah of course I see them like palling around on trucks you know what I mean oh yeah the branding is still the same but the they got their check

they got their check Diddy Juice you know what I mean all the Cirocs was it Avion yeah Ciroc Ciroc no no no

Diddy isn't Diddy no Ciroc he has a tequila yes but he also has a tequila oh yeah it's Avion no Deleon Deleon Deleon and then Armadale No, Ciroc. He has a tequila, though, too. Yes, but he also has a tequila. Oh, yeah. It's called Avion. No, De Leon. De Leon.

De Leon. And then- Armadale was- No, Fitty had F in vodka. 50 had F in vodka. Yep. And then- But that's not doing that hot. It's actually doing pretty well.

It's in everybody's rail. That's considered a high-end- Really? A high-end- I used to bartend a lot in a high-end place. That would be in the rail. I was in a focus group for FN Vodka once. Wow.

How did that happen? How were they like, you are our target market. Because my friend was working at this marketing company in New York. And we were like party kids. You know what I'm saying? And we were the people that were drinking I'm a vodka drinker

and like basically you want to try 50 cent vodka it was like what would make you try effin and I was just like

the packaging for me the branding for me is not that's I'm I am more likely to drink Ciroc

than I am effin I actually like Ciroc puffy well let's take a quick break and we'll sip some pineapple Ciroc than I am effing. I actually like Ciroc. Puffy. Well, let's take a quick break and we'll sip some pineapple Ciroc and be right back. 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 Delia. I am one of the hosts of Crooks Everywhere, a podcast that unhurts the plot to murder a one-woman Wikileaks.

Listen to The Making of a Rivalry, Caitlin Clark vs. Angel Reese on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And we're back. And let's check in with some scams real quick. First up, there's a new article from Business Insider that's just giving us a quick update on the state of MoviePass.

We already knew that it was just a failed experiment. How the fuck are you going to charge people $9.95 a month to watch unlimited movies? The numbers don't add up. But yet they persisted. Now, there's just a few things that they mentioned that is kind of new but not surprising. Like, first of all, they had a, quote, like a tripwire system that basically when their, like, cash reserves ran out from people buying too many movie tickets, they could just basically pull the plug on the whole fucking thing and people would act like, oh, sorry, you were unable

to get your ticket for today, just to always ensure that they never went over. One little tidbit. Also, there were these investors who basically became the heads of the company over time. One of these investors was involved with Latoya Jackson's Psychic Friends Network.

So that's the background. And none of her psychic friends told them about this. Oh, no, they didn't. Did you ever, have you ever called a psychic? Yeah. You did? Called? Called.

Yes. Where? Where was a psychic located? Yeah. Was it like a hotline or someone gave you the number of a psychic? No, it was like a whole number. You're not throwing your money away on TV psychics. No.

I like that. But I've been tempted. Yeah, of course. I mean, Miss Cleo almost had me fucked up. Yeah, Miss Cleo. I should have called her then. So they had their tripwire thing. And then, okay, so these people who became the heads of the companies,

they fired one of the founders of the company because she kept bringing up the fact that this $9.95 a month model was not going to work. So they're like, you know what? We don't have time for fucking haters. Hit the fucking bricks. So they're literally just like Billy McFarlane. If anybody was like, hey, Billy, I feel like this isn't going to work.

Get out of here, bro. I need your solutions. I need your solutions, not problems. The problem is the business model. No, no, no. I need a solution to that need your solutions, not problems. The problem is the business model. Right. No, no, no. I need a solution to that. The solution is to stop. No, no, no. That's not.

You're a hater. I need a solution. Find money. Find me a way to fucking scam somebody. This is definitely a scam because I love that if the scam hit the bricks, they had tripped it up to where it'd be like, oh, sorry, the whole system is down. Well, this is what else they did. They would fucking change passwords on people that were using the app so much

so they couldn't get fucking tickets. That's crazy. So then you'd be like, what the fuck? My shit's logged out. They couldn't log in because the password was all random. And you need to get another one. Yeah, forgot password. That's crazy.

Jamming you up. This is what they said. Low dreaded the company's power users. And they're referring to one of the CEOs. Those high volume MoviePass customers who are taking advantage of the low monthly price constantly going to movies and effectively cleaning the company out.

According to the Motion Picture Association of America the average moviegoer goes to the movies five times a year. The power users would go to the movies

every day. Before Mitch came on it was how do we slow these guys down? I had a friend I know power users. Fuck those guys

is what the quote was. I had a friend that I'm not joking I think was going to the movies three times a week. On MoviePass? On MoviePass. Oh, no. I know somebody who was going five times a week, multiple times a day. I'm not even kidding.

This guy who's a cinephile and has a podcast about movies was just seeing as many movies all the time. And so when MoviePass came out, he was in love with it because it was like, oh, bet. I'm about to like... He was driving a Rolls Royce and shit for a little money. I mean, it made so much sense. I remember when my friend, the one who was hitting up

all the movies all the time, he was like, yeah, it's only like 10 bucks for unlimited movies. And I was like, how is this lucrative? Yeah, well, that's what everyone was thinking

and now we're in its death throes. I know, it's so sad. I think they're on hiatus right now or something. It can't continue. I love that they on hiatus right now. Yeah. Or something. Whatever the fuck that means. It can't continue. I love that they were jamming up people who use it too much by changing their passwords. That shit is funny to me. Fucked up, but I love it.

I mean, it's not fucked up. You got greedy. Like, you know what you entered into. You know that $10 a month is not sustainable for you to be seeing 30 movies a month. No. But that's what they're offering you, so you better damn well take advantage of it. Yeah. But see, that's the American way,

and it's kind of crappy. And you know what it was when you signed up. But see, even me as a scammer, I would have been like, this is a good scam. I want it to stay alive a little bit. I won't abuse it to that point. You're just in a movie theater,

just swipe, swipe, swipe. You're just in there all day. You're a moral scammer, which is tough to be. I also think that when you make a business model like that, I could imagine being in the room conceiving movie pass, being like, yeah, but nobody's actually going to go to the movies that much. They were thinking about their demographic, not ours.

People are like, yeah, but no one's actually going to see five movies a week. No one actually has time for that. There are people who fucking pay to see that shit. But that's definitely what happened. They were definitely like, okay, let's project how often people go to the movies, probably reading five times a year. They're like, okay, well, if they go five times a year, whatever. They forgot about millennials. I have a suggestion for them.

They should switch to a class pass structure where you can get X amount of movies a month. You know, like class pass, you can get X amount of passes, whatever. That's what it should have been in general. But as scammers, they were like, if we come in hot with this low, low price, we're going to get everyone to sign up. We'll get everybody's money. And then the people who don't actually use it,

that's how we'll sustain the business model. No, I actually just cracked it. Because here's what it should be. They should restructure it where, like, low ticket selling show times, like a 3 p.m. showing of like Once Upon a Time in Hollywood or something like that, that the theater wants to sell more tickets. Those should be the ones that they just like offer times every day.

Oh, right. Like Hotel Tonight. Exactly. Hotel Tonight, but for movie tickets. Boom. New idea. Silicon Valley hit us up. I just solved your problem.

Or they could have just been honest with their thirsty users and just put up a thirst alert like it could have popped up on your phone like thirst alert like you're doing too much lacy this is we're talking about scammers there's no such thing as honesty and we also have to say but but listen a thirsty person is not gonna stop thirsting just because you told them they too thirsty if i got an alert that was like you're being too too thirsty, I'd be like, I guess I got to come back later. They caught me. I'm turning the thirst up. Somebody says I'm being too thirsty.

I'm like, oh, you don't even know. Yeah. Also, yeah. You think this is thirst? No. No. Fuck you. I'm not even dehydrated.

This is me ashamed of myself. Yes. Oh, no. Okay. I'm going to take the break fully off. I do want to say really quickly, rest in peace to a real scammer. One of the more famous sports cheaters of all time, this woman, Rosie Ruiz, who in 1980 set the Boston Marathon record for a woman with a time of 2 hours, 31 minutes, and 56 seconds. And when she took the women's medal, many of the other runners were very suspicious of her.

The reason being, they say she wasn't sweating enough. She had on a heavy shirt and she didn't know anything about running. Did not even look like somebody who had run over 26 miles. So this is before they were like checking people, like where they had like markers and stuff. Like people would just sort of, there would be spotters who would just like write numbers down or whatever. during this time she was able to take advantage of the system because also all of the folk

the spotters were mostly paying attention to the men's race so there you go sexism use fucking use patriarchy to your advantage ma

she so and also she didn't show up on any video no fucking photographs that were taken on the first 25 miles so how did she do it

did she just run a mile and win? She just showed up like a mile out and hopped in. They say like two students caught her just jumping into the race near Kenmore Square, about one mile from the finish line. Shout out to a queen. That's amazing. When they were grilling her, they were like, okay, what about your training methods, your pace times, what about intervals? She knew nothing.

I'd just be running, you know what I'm saying? I'd be out here, I'd put my shoes on one shoe at a time like everybody else, and I'd just be running. She couldn't even identify landmarks. It just fell apart. So is that how they busted her that day? Eight days later, they're like, I'm sorry. After talking to you, you clearly know nothing about anything.

It also came out for her to qualify for the Boston Marathon. She cheated in the New York Marathon and took the fucking subway to get to the fucking Big Fish. Now, that one was probably more believable because you do sweat on the subway and you do run. I am obsessed with her, and that's amazing. I am obsessed with her and that's amazing. Anyone that's willing to just like, to me, that is the greatest scam that like, it's so, for what? Like for what? You know, it's like, it's not like you're scamming like a ton of money.

I mean, you do win money when you win these marathons. A little bit, yeah. A little bit, but like. It's more to be like, I won this marathon and set a world record. I was so proud of her record I was so proud of her I was so proud of her the high must have been crazy

honestly I think that it's one of those things where you're like wouldn't this be crazy if this worked and then it does and you're kind of

just like holy shit so what are your methods you know when I was a little girl I started walking you know what I'm saying at first I started

with the crawl then I started walking and then one day I started picking my legs up. We're interested in your training methods as an elite marathon runner. Oh, yeah. Absolutely. So do you do interval training? What do you?

So I do all the intervals. You know what I'm saying? So I do a here and a there and I do it everywhere. You know what I'm saying? And what about your runner's form? Is there anything you had to address? My form is very much putting one leg in front of the other. You know what I'm saying?

You got to really push. I think we've seen enough, Miss Mosley. Thank you so much for your time. Eight days later. My form is very much putting one leg in front of the other. You know what I'm saying? You got to really push. I think we've seen enough, Miss Mosley. Thank you so much for your time. Eight days later. I was set up. That was wrong. They set me up.
