I've always wanted one of those. Those are, those have never gone out of style for me. I've never seen an adult like gliding around on those. And I need to have you. Is that a thing that adults do? I've seen it. I've seen a dude on Heelys before. It wasn't like it was one time.

And I feel like I think I probably took a picture and sent it to my friends. I'm like, yo, this man is on Heelys right now. I feel like society is against adults really trying to like embrace be cool. Yeah. Fucking awesome. Society

doesn't want people on Heelys for some reason and I'm just like let those people cook, you know? Yes, absolutely. Let me look and feel like I'm in a Spike Lee tracking shot. I'm sorry. Exactly. These Heelys, these new ones though, they're not really

low-key. You can see that Miles just showed us. You can see the heel coming out of the bottom. It's straight up like a heel. It's like a one-inch wedge. I'm just going to have to start roller skating, I think, because this is...

All right. Well, Brian, it's wonderful to have you back. We're going to get to know you a little bit better in a moment. But first, let's tell the people a couple of things we might be talking about later on. We might be talking about, we'll continue to cover the election results and how things not go well for MAGA and the right.

They continue to take L's. And we're specifically going to talk about how they did in the school board, a dish of the school board section of the election. Not so great. We might check in with Ohio with there's a new bear on the scene taco bell bear instead of cocaine bear taco bell berry 45 worth of taco bell which is the equivalent of like a million dollars worth of cocaine yeah yeah yeah to some to some yeah's Sexiest Man Alive has been announced. Yeah. And it is baffling. It's the guy who died in Grey's Anatomy like five years ago.

Long, dude. Five years ago. Patrick Dempsey? Many years ago. It's the nerd from Can't Buy Me Love. Yeah, it's the nerd from Can't Buy Me Love. But then he had like a second act to his career where he was like a dreamboat for...

McDreamy. Yeah. I think my man died in a plane crash in Grey's Anatomy. Yeah. And now he's, I guess, has a supporting role in the Michael Mann Ferrari movie, and they're like, good enough for us. We're very horny for you.

It reeks of the sexiest man alive cover can be bought oh for sure yeah you know what i mean yeah but anyways we'll talk about how that came about all all the many many misses from uh people magazines can't you know i believe in the sanctity of this thing and it just comes back and bites me on the ass. In this house, we believe in the sanctity of the People's Sexiest Man cover. That would be a great thing to just like add to one of those signs

without them noticing. Yeah, science, that love is love. We believe in science and the sanctity of the People Magazine's Sexiest Man Alive. Oh, man. I feel like the people who have that sign We believe in science and the sanctity of the People Magazine's sexiest man alive. Oh, man. I feel like the people who have that sign probably believe in the sanctity of the people's sexiest man. Oh, yeah.

There are people, I'm sure, with those people who still have that yard sign up, are probably shedding it. Like, they still think about McDreamy and Grey's Anatomy dying. Oh, hell yeah. They were like, we actually really thought the Blake Shelton one was actually pretty good. We were glad somebody else said what we were all thinking while we were masturbating to Blake Shelton. It's bad timing. We might even talk about the new Ghostbusters trailer. All of that.

Plenty more. But first, Brian, we do like to ask our guests, what is something from your search history? Something from my search history? Yes, sir. Or, I don't know, do you have something from someone else's? Have you been watching? That would be wild. You're like, I can pull up Kamala Harris's search history right now if you want.

I have some really wild software. Yeah, I have some spyware that I, you know, uploaded to my friend's phones. And so I can see their search history. I'm looking into it. You got those covenant eyes? Yeah. Yesterday I Googled donating plasma. I'm like, how much can you get for donating plasma?

Right. How much? It was really hard to say. It depends on where you go. Some places give you like gift cards. Oh. And then other places give you like, you know, I assume just like a weird like debit card or something like that. Right.

Oh, okay. With money uploaded. Yeah. They're like, hey, man, you can get a bag of hot Cheetos, a box of apple juice. And one of those Lucina bonds on the way way out man thanks a lot yeah yeah one place was like you get free movie tickets and i'm like okay what no way we got this new deal on have you ever had heard of what was that film thing the weekly or monthly film club? AMC Stubs?

I know a lot of people think Movie Pass has been out of business for three, four years, but they're making a comeback. They're making a comeback. And they're being, you know, they're being run through the Cedars-Sinai Hospital. For the low, low price of the thing that gives your blood the viscosity it needs to travel through your body and transport all the different things around, you can get involved on the ground floor of the latest incarnation of movie path have you donated plasma before is it the same as donating blood like do you get a cookie do you get some something to oh yeah they give you money i mean it's kind of a sort of the industry

has been criticized for like targeting very poor people to try and get them in the door industry shady it need to be taken over yeah i never have yeah i never have i'm assuming they get they hook you up with like i don't know like whatever maybe a dodger hat yeah they hook you up with like some uh like some jordans and like you know yeah you get a free jersey and stuff i'd actually like cash that's kind of why i'm here dude dude look at this this is a russell westbrook lakers jersey i know you doesn't but you can get that right now that should be that's gonna be like the new like uh

Yeah. Oh, wow. And then but is it that the blood bag, the blood like obviously the billionaire was always in love with the blood bag. And then it's like kind of one of those she's all that kind of things where the blood bag has to admit it's like I was just here for the money. And they're like, what? I thought you loved me. It's like, but after no you're disgusting that's how those should end more often are you fucking kidding me are you for real dude get the

fuck out of my face you duplicitous fuck face yeah or like by getting the blood they get i don't know hotter hotter or yeah i don't know i don't know what it is like they're they're now like kind of gaining some of their ideas and thoughts i don't know we'll work it out yeah let's workshop this offline figure it out yeah yeah what is something brian that you think is overrated i think eating healthy is overrated go on i'm like i'm like i get it like it's like eating healthy probably makes you feel better you know it probably makes you live longer but who cares you're here for a good time not a long time here for a good time not a long time yeah or you're for a long time in a bad time like yeah

with three moments of enjoying junk food yeah or like not yeah junk food or just like stuff that like if you have two options in front of you it's like why let me have the bad one maybe the bad one's not even that bad. What are you? Okay. Maybe it's like. Were you recently at a crossroads with food and you had to decide whether, like, which you're going to give in to the demon or the angel on your shoulder? No.

I generally eat healthy, though. Oh. You seem very healthy. Like, that's the thing. But there are certain people who just have good like if i eat unhealthily unhealthily in the morning like i'm fucked for like a couple hours at least like my energy is gonna be all messed up and stuff but that's just because i'm old you know and like my body doesn't work that well but there's like there was some one of like the greatest nfl players in the league was like talking about how he like wakes up and like works out for six hours and like

the only thing he eats at that time is like candy or something it's just like but his body is just obviously a far superior machine and it just like doesn't matter, you know, for him. Like I have to monitor my shit. Like he's just like, no, what? Wait, you have to like pay attention to what you put in your body. That sucks, man. Just eat a Costco size tub of red vines while you work out. Exactly. Are you like, do you need to eat healthily to like feel good or you're just good either way? Yeah. To maintain my physique, I feel like I need to eat healthy. Yeah.

Just kidding. My ripped physique. Yeah. I feel like, no, I just eat healthy because I'm like, you know, trying to like maintain good habits or whatever. Right. I'm kind of like backtracking on everything I'm saying, but like, I feel like yeah, I feel like when people are like, you know, I

ate junk food last night I shouldn't have or whatever. It's like you can eat junk food and it's okay. You don't have to feel bad about it. I feel like there's like a built-in shame of it. Oh, yeah. Yeah. How much much is my how much of it is in my head versus like actually like me eating junk food makes me makes my body work worse or is it just like a shame spiral where i'm eating badly and feeling badly and therefore eating badly again and then it shows up on my hips

as long as you don't walk into a mcdonald's and the first thing that the staff says is yo he's back he's back then i feel like you're probably okay but what's your what's your if you're obviously healthy but what's your guilty pleasure like What are you eating when you go, man, fuck all this eating healthy shit. I'm going to eat mine. Taco Bell. Yeah. That's healthy. Taco Bell. Me and that bear have that in common. If they have vegetarian options at the place,

that's health food. You don't even have to get the vegetarian option. The fact that they offer it means they're thinking about you. Taco Bell is health food. Yeah, absolutely. They should have it at Erewhon, but they don't because they're cowards. That's right.

Erewhon Blast is like a fruit juice cocktail, basically. It's mostly natural. Yeah, mostly, except for the dyes. What were you going to say about Erewhon? I forget. Erewhon's crazy. Erewhon doing Taco Bell yeah what were you gonna say about erwin i forget erwin's crazy erwin doing taco bell would be a game changer though i think can you imagine like good if it tasted like taco bell but it was like you know top tier ingredients could they is it possible

that i'm always think of like i think it's the chemicals and the lack of like nutrients that gives it that flavor. But I'm open. I'm open to somebody being like, no, this is actually I can give you the turnt up. Yeah. Culinary Zeitgang. Let us know. Like, is there is that possible? Is it possible to just because I like there's high end like smash burgers and stuff like that.

Right. That's like really great ingredients. and that stuff works out pretty well but like can you get what we love about taco bell using like all natural like locally sourced ingredients yeah i bet there is like a tiktok dedicated to that yeah i'm sure right like yeah like like health health junk i but like they have you know they sell like the taco bell seasonings that you could put on ground beef i gotta say when i use like store-bought ground beef with that i'm like yo this shit is this shit tastes gross like yeah because it's real like you know what i mean it's yeah it's different than the shit taco bell tastes too meaty i'm like the fuck is this you can like it's not it's not so much

the meat is not so much a paste that just gets spread yeah like a layer of paste that yeah has the memory of like a time that i ate meat so right less than actual pieces of meat in my mouth yeah god taco bell so good i'm also i've been i've been craving i've been craving fast food every time i drive by it is it and being reminded of like there was that study that people who live within like a couple blocks of a fast food restaurant generally like have much worse health prospects and prognoses and yeah i live right by wendy's oh i was going there a lot four times a week i would say yeah that's a lot of that's a lot of no's that you have to get yourself to say you know on a daily basis that's some real control like i can't honestly

i live by a taco bell and a mcdonald's, I, I take every fiber of my being to stay away from that Taco Bell. So then I end up doing this thing where I'm like, Oh, I'll go to the other fast food place. McDonald's. Yeah. I don't do some stupid shit, but I'm,

I'm, I'm not on that. I'm not on that life as much as I used to be. That's for sure. Yeah. There needs to be like, as somebody that like calls you when you're like about to drive by that place like there's a gps that like knows you're driving by a fast food place and then

you get an emergency phone call from a loved one but it's not real they're just like you gotta get home right now yeah yeah yeah yeah the baby's coughing exactly yeah and so you go home and you have you don't even think about it. What's something you think is underrated? I say turning up on Sundays is kind of underrated. I feel like, you know, people do brunch. People, yeah. People need to turn up at church.

I'll tell you where you need to turn up. You need to turn up at church. You need to turn up at the fucking... Yeah. The service on Sunday. Yeah, I feel like... What is it? Yeah, everyone wants to set themselves up for success during the week, and it's like...

I say stay in the dirt, you know? Stay in... Yeah, sabotage. Yeah, set yourself up for failure the i feel like if you're starting if you're trying if you're starting your sunday like you know i'm setting myself up for success the only way you can go is down whereas if you're already down the only way you can go is up yeah yeah if it's just an extension like if your sunday is all about preparing for the week it it becomes an extension of the week.

And then you're like not really having a weekend. I feel that. Yeah. Like I feel like I end up feeling anxiety about the week for a big chunk of Sunday. And it's fuck that, you know? No. Yeah. If I could, I'd say fuck that you know if I could I'd say fuck that

if I could but instead I just marinate in the panic yeah embrace the chaos please please do you guys never hear from me I go missing or something

he lived how he lived the way he wanted to embracing the chaos yeah he heeded his own advice from the daily zeitgeist episode and it was never he did go missing on a sunday so we couldn't tell if he was just like going really hard or what was that you know all right let's uh let's take a quick break and we'll be right back.

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

We're not hurting people. There's nothing dangerous about what you're doing. They're just dreams. Dream Sequence is a new horror thriller from Blumhouse Television, iHeartRadio, and Realm. Listen to Dream Sequence on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. two of the Amber and Lacey, Lacey and Amber show on Will Ferrell's Big Money Players Network. You thought you had fun last season. Well, you were right.

And you should tune in today for new fun segments like Sister Court and listening to Lacey's steamy DMs. We've got new and exciting guests like Michael Beach. That's my husband. Daphne Spring, Daniel Thrasher, Peppermint, Morgan J. and more. You got to watch us. No, you mean you have to listen to us. I mean, you can still watch us, but you got to listen. Like if you're watching us, you have to tell us.

Like if you're out the window, you have to say, hey, I'm watching you outside of the window. Just just you know what? Listen to the Amber and Lacey Lacey and Amber show on Will Ferrell's Big Money Players Network on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And we're back. We're back. And just like that, we're back. Oh, yeah. All right. So as you talked about on yesterday's trending, big L's for Republicans, some wins for the Democrats.

A lot of wins. Yeah. A lot of wins. It was basically a lot of pain and suffering for the GOP. Yeah, they just continue to run into the fact that seems to be unmovable fact that people value reproductive rights and just like human rights in general. The loser, it turns out, to threaten those things. But hey, just keep on coping. The shit that they've been saying like online, they're like, yeah, it's because they had like marijuana on the ballot. So like that's why they vote for abortionsions like no you absolute creeps anyway uh but one thing i

want to touch on specifically were some school board races because as we discussed with jared holt on tuesday ultimania you know these smaller local races are where extremists like to get a foothold and you know ascend from there from there. And like, especially school board, like races, people aren't typically as dialed in. But over the last couple of years, people have paid a lot more attention. Specifically, we're talking about Moms for Liberty, whose sole purpose is to erase any sense of diversity

or understanding of systemic oppression from school curricula. They, you know, they want to disappear LGBTQ people and teach kids that slavery was actually one of the coolest study abroad programs in history, uh, if they had their way. So it turns out a lot of people understand the threat that they present to education. And while some moms for Liberty candidates did pick up a few wins here and there, it was mostly flat out rejection of their bullshit from voters so like for example

back in 2021 you know like at the height of the critical race theory screaming matches that were happening at schools or like this martin luther mlk is crt and you're like what are you huh yeah what are you talking about that one of those districts that was like ground zero for a lot of those screaming contests, they just basically flipped that board to a liberal majority. So there's that one. In Pennsylvania, there was a school board that had been taken over by Moms for Liberty creeps, and they predictably started eviscerating the curriculum with the help of like a religious extremist.

That board got flipped. In Iowa, their candidates just got ran out of town. The same happened in Minnesota and North Carolina. So a nice moment for educators and people who value our very fragile education system, because, you know, just like being how like being anti-choice has been a proven loser. It seems like vilifying LGBTQ students and panicking over literary depictions of kissing or teaching kids basic moral lessons from history is not moving the needle so there's just a nice you know a moment where i think a lot of people were i guess not shocked but at least pleasantly surprised to see that like people took a notice of what was going on and

responded in this in this election so yeah yeah it really feels like they fucked up strategically because i think part of their strategy was well this is under the radar nobody shows up for like school board elections so we can just like go and like you know fuck around and nobody's going to be paying attention because the school board election but like very early on they were like showing up to those town hall meetings there's like that one like white dad with dreadlocks who was screaming at the top of his lungs like in different states you know like he was they were like here's our guy here's here's our ambassador and everyone's like oh shit i guess we gotta pay attention because these people are fucking scary turns out a white guy with dreadlocks isn't a good

look yeah we didn't know that who's screaming at the top of his lungs yeah everybody yeah like we're big counting crows fans so we miscalculated there didn't realize that that might not go over well with everybody yeah but yeah it i think it also too like i think we see this all the time like from democrats and republicans people are completely missing how actually like how progressive policies are appealing yeah like they're just like nah man this shit like that's just too woke or whatever people like i don't look at it that way it's like you can't you can't you can't have a policy where you're saying like we're going to out gay or trans students to their families as a school policy and have like a plurality of people like, yeah, that's safe. That's healthy. Yeah, that's what we want to live in.

Yeah. Yeah. So L's all around. L's all around. Yeah, it's it is really wild that there's not more of a kind of progressive ideal like that that is officially embraced like the big d democratic party gets a lot of the credit for it but it's still so middle of the road and they're just as progressive as they need to be in comparison with the goP, which is not very, because the GOP is like a cartoon of the opposite of progressive. Yeah.

If you look at like globally, what people do, but they're center, right? So, yeah, just being to the center is like, oh my God, these guys are Marxist Leninists. Right. Yeah. But yeah. And there's also just I feel like the capitalist idea is, well, you can't go broke underestimating people like that. That's just how everybody thinks of people like big groups of people writ large. And I feel like we're being that that's being proven incorrect repeatedly and like more and more these days that's kind of crazy that anybody can like anybody can run for a school board yeah truly like it's crazy that i that you know i could yeah the skate skateboarding cool guy for skateboarding cool guy turning up on a sunday i'm like more taco bell in schools yes i did have

taco bell in my school in ohio it's a winner oh yeah a lot of yeah that's crazy yeah yeah have you like where where you grew up has your school board has has there been any kind of like freaky attempts at trying to take over a school board where you're at because like i see it in parts of la like glendale yeah became like a huge flashpoint locally but i don't know like i feel like other people are like dude my town has completely lost the plot too i feel like all right i'm from phoenix arizona a red state and i'm sure there has been i right i never experienced because i went to like these like catholic schools so i like we weren't like part of like the public school system so it was always very like and even those schools were like very like conservative and like they were like progressive but like still like really like conservative too at the same

time just because like that's what the state is and so yeah i can't imagine what it's like to go like to have to deal with like public school shit, like in Arizona, it probably has to be. Right. Where they're like, all right guys, let's, let's all pledge our allegiance to this portrait of sheriff Joe Arpaio.

Literally. I'm sure there was a mural of sheriff. I go to Arpaio elementary. Oh fuck. Oh no. There's like field trips to like the jails or whatever you know the tent city that he was the mastermind of yeah it's like that's my school actually you turn this tent city into a high school it's an extension yeah yeah the annex a couple big wins in the state of ohio

so we saw people voted to enshrine abortion access in the state's constitution, becoming the seventh state to protect abortion access following the Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, which, yeah, again, just keeps being popular. Passed despite Republican Governor Mike DeWine's sweaty efforts to fight the amendment, which included making a creepy commercial with his wife paid for by a well-funded anti-choice group claiming that they carefully studied issue one and then just like spouting complete bullshit about about like what it was going to do. He was also against them voting to legalize recreational marijuana and took an L on that one, too. Ohio voters gave the green light to the green light to legalizing recreational marijuana on that one. He kept being like, you vote for this one and you're going to look out your window and there's just going to be car crash. You won't even be able to walk out of your house because of all the car crashes. There's just going to be cars crash from pot everywhere all the pot is gonna cause the car crashes to be out of control yeah most people i know they drive slow as shit

if they're if they're not experienced with weed or something yeah they're like i'm just gonna pull over and sleep i mean i was curious about this because like making a drug more readily available, like in theory, I could see how that would make sense. Yeah. But so you look at the like people have done studies on this and there are studies that are like, yeah, like went up a couple percentage points. studies say it's either inconclusive or in some cases the like when marijuana gets legalized fatal car accidents actually go down because people are more likely to smoke weed and less likely to drink to leave and like or leave their place like yeah yeah i'm gonna stay here dude if you want we can walk to the liquor store i don't want to die yeah but my experience driving while high was that you know it always had the effect depicted in the movie black sheep where i'd have to like force myself to not drive conspicuously slow like i was right right right

like all right i gotta get up to 25 miles per hour or like the cops will notice they're gonna know man yeah exactly you're like waving people just go around me man yeah exactly like it's a red light dude relax yeah but i do want to play this clip rick santorum who is an obviously just notorious politician to say the least he had something to say about like what what the heck just happened in Ohio Because so many Republicans Are still fucking baffled Yeah Ohio's a red state

Yeah they're like What the fuck is going on I just want to play this because he He kind of says a real dark thing In this little bit In this little sound bite This is on Newsmax, this is him. This is on Newsmax?

Yeah, this is Newsmax, obviously, where the news is at. Newsmax. Here, yeah, this is Santorum on Newsmax as the results came in from Ohio. And you put very sexy things like abortion and marijuana on the ballot, and a lot of young people come out and vote. It was a secret sauce for disaster in ohio i don't know what they were thinking but um that's why i i thank goodness that most of the states in this country don't allow you to put everything on the ballot because

pure democracies are not the way to run a country whoa wow whoa whoa whoa rick come on now come on buddy wow i think look and this is the thing that people have always been saying wait that's scary about the potential of another trump term is yeah that's the outlook it's like dude don't let these people fucking speak for on their own behalf or else they're gonna fucking do the opposite of what we want because we're the antithesis of what people want I love how sexy stuff like abortion and marijuana that's such a like

like the mental gymnastics to try and tell yourself that it's like it's not like they voted for hottest person in Ohio and that's what brought everybody out right you're talking about especially with abortion you're talking about especially with abortion you're talking about people's literal fucking human rights yes it's not like and to be dismissive and be like that's yeah it's like one of those like what were they thinking having sexy stuff

like human rights and marijuana on the fucking ballot what a mistake people's magazine sexiest man was on the ballot too yeah that is how we came up with it. It was an Ohio ballot measure that landed us with Patrick Dempsey. That's why so many young people showed up. Exactly. Yeah, right. To vote Dempsey. Yeah.

The kids are all right. Dempsey or Garth Brooks? What the fuck? Holy shit. Yeah, it's just, you know, this pattern. That's wild, though. A democracy is no way to run a country, you know? Yeah, pure democracy.

It's like, or else the people will, like, advocate for themselves. Yeah, they'll, like, tell you what they want for themselves. And that's... Nah. Don't do that. The way that he just, like, says it says it like it's self-evidently true yeah like yeah we can all agree like that america is based on values of authoritarianism am i right guys well and also just like the being so page like completely ignoring the fact that these are

people who are voting for their own interests you know and like just sort of like trying to brush it aside as something else it's like the same thing when you hear like like democrats were like why are young people like against israel's constant bombardment of gaza it's tiktok yeah it's not because they're thinking for the it's it's this dang algorithm just no come on wake up people people are much smarter than when you were kids. Right. It's also crazy that he's like, yeah, it sucks that young people came out. It's like it sucks that so many young people came out to vote just because, you know, they cared about like issues or whatever.

It's like, yeah. Oh, I'm sorry. Yeah. Rick, what was your ideal election day uh outcome here well the kids would be so busy playing x station or whatever they're on and that they couldn't come out and we could just have the you know the fascist takeover just you know just one step closer very quickly that would be cool so i'm assuming the olds still came out. They weren't scared off by this. It's just that kids also came out. It was like a 60 to 40 win in terms of enshrining abortion access.

So like, fuck. Yeah. Okay. Sure. All right. Let's take a quick break and we'll be right back. And we'll be right back. I'm Jess Casavetto, executive producer of the hit Netflix documentary series Dancing for the Devil, the 7M TikTok cult.

That was live audio of a woman's nightmare. This machine is approved and everything? You're allowed to be doing this? We passed the review board a year ago. We're not hurting people. There's nothing dangerous about everything you're allowed to be doing this we passed the review board a year ago we're not hurting people there's nothing dangerous about what you're doing they're just dreams dream sequence is a new horror thriller from blumhouse television iheart radio and realm listen to dream sequence on the iheart radio Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. It was December 2019 when the story blew up.

In Green Bay, Wisconsin, former Packers star Kabir Bajabiamila caught up in a bizarre situation. KGB explaining what he believes led to the arrest of his friends at a children's Christmas play. A family man, former NFL player, devout Christian, now cut off from his family and connected to a strange arrest. I am going to share my journey of how I went from Christianity to now a Hebrew Israelite. I got swept up in Kabir's journey, but this was only the beginning. In a story about faith and football, the search for meaning away from the gridiron and the consequences for everyone involved you mix homesteading with guns and church and a little bit of the spice of conspiracy theories that we liked voila you got straight away i felt like i was living in north korea but worse if that's possible listen to spiraled on the iheart radio app apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

And we're back. We're back. And answering the age-old question, does it bear shit all over the woods? We have a Florida family that ordered Taco Bell bell and uber eats shout out to this family first of all put putting a 45 that's easy that's easy that's t-bell order and for the full family but like that's yeah like this make this inspires me to be like babe I got dinner tonight. Kick your feet up. You don't even have to tell me what you want me to order because I already know.

Okay? We got this. So $45 worth of Taco Bell and they made the cardinal sin of ordering $45 worth of Taco Bell, which is they left it at the front door too damn long. Because if this bear hadn't come along,

you know my ass was going to come along. Their ring camera... Just on your Heelys? Their ring camera captured a 300 to 400 pound black bear, saunter by, is how it's described, scarfed the food, left, then came back 10 minutes later for the soda

please be more specific on the soda I have to assume this is Baja Blast it has to be it has to be Baja Blast if it isn't then that bear might be in real harm in real danger you need that to extend your life

but what do you do like can you put that at uber eats like they're like i didn't get my order my fucking bear ate the shit hell no my taco bell yeah it's my villain origin story yeah so if they do decide i'm not saying they will decide to make a cocaine bear-esque movie out of this but if they do like will the bear be shitting so powerfully that like trees get knocked down right that like the angle on it and i didn't think of this because i wonder if i only got maybe through the first like third of cocaine bear but i was surprised how little the bear was farting after doing so much cocaine well the cocaine was pure miles it wasn't cut like you're the cocaine that made you hey you don't know i

don't know i don't know you don't know you don't know if you've been stepped on but hey yeah maybe at the very least is your history with cocaine that you fart allegedly uh allegedly allegedly allegedly sometimes there's laxatives that they use to cut the cocaine to the purity down to extend the volume that you have and that in turn may cause a bit of gi discomfort allegedly my experience was not that when i did it i did i didn't do it very often but when i allegedly did do it i never had that issue yeah yeah and actually when i did it it. I never had that issue. Yeah. Yeah. And actually when I did it, it was completely different. What happened was I tried to do it and then Jesus came down and swiped it away and said, don't do that. And I said, thank you, Christ. And then he took me off into the

sky for Taco Bell. Yeah. So it was really good cocaine. Yeah. Yeah. I was off my face. I was tripping. I thought Jesus came down and took me to taco bell yeah but so brian it sounds like you are a taco bell fan do you have like standard order that you get every time yeah i do a chalupa beef chalupa two cheesy bean and rice burritos one bean burrito and then one spicy potato soft taco i'm sorry okay you said a chill sorry how many items that you said chalupa that's like chalupa yeah i'll switch off either two cheesy bean and rice burritos okay two brcs yeah one bean burrito okay and then one spicy potato potato taco. Yeah, yeah. Okay, that works. That works. The bean burrito is underrated. That was the item I remember having at our lunchroom in Dayton, Ohio.

Our public school had Taco Bell cheese and bean burritos. And goddamn, man, those hit real hard. When you're a hungry 12-year-old in the middle of the day. When you're a hungry 12-year-old in the middle of the day. When you're a hungry 12-year-old, stale Cheez-Its will fucking hit like a Michelin-starred meal. You know what I mean? The pizza in my high school, I'm like, where do they get this from? This is the best pizza that I've ever had. Really?

Yeah. Not my experience. Because they would get it from somewhere. They didn't was so good experience is they would like get it from somewhere they didn't make it in-house they would get it from somewhere and then they would sell it and i was always just like i need to find out where this place is they're like you don't want to know brian if i had it right now i would probably be like oh this tastes like right but like at that age like you're you know i wasn't eating a good breakfast before going to school and then like thinking for five hours straight and like just just trying like willing myself to like keep my eyes open in class like i feel like i would the lunchtime

in high school was among the hungriest i've ever been as a human being you know so like everything that they're giving you at that time is like, and that was the age of like eating. You would eat other people's leavings. You'd be like, Oh, you done with that? You know what I mean?

I don't think we realize how much calories like using your brain actually. Yeah, exactly. Burns. It actually literally burns a lot of calories. Oh yeah. It really does. Science. Does it? Science. literal science blackberries are crazy too sorry i just want to say have you guys seen that video of the black bear like eating like this family's like

meal that was like laid out on a picnic table and then like the mom is covering her son's eyes yeah they're just like she's like just yeah and the bear's just like eating it in front of them. Just like really just like, you know, going to town, smacking his mouth. It's so like, it's very. Yo, why is she covering his eyes? Because so the kid doesn't because they don't want to get up and startle the bear and get attacked. So they just have to be like, shut the fuck up. Just like if the kids saw he would probably like start crying or something like that.

Yeah. Yeah. I just found out would probably start crying or something like that. I just found out you use around 300 calories a day just thinking. Yeah, and that's a normal person. The way we think, Miles. Bro, that's like, see, now I gotta go to Taco Bell before I wither away from all this thinking and fucking smoke coming out of our ears over here.

I tell my therapist, I'm like, do you think all my ruminating is actually healthy because because the amount of calories that it might burn? They're like, I would not look at it like that, Miles. Power ruminate. Yeah. Over here. Power ruminating. Got it.

Yeah. Got a carbo load. Going to ruminate about some shit that happened five years ago. Yeah. I wish our app, I wish our phones tracked that. How many calories we burn thinking. Yeah. Yeah. Come on. Come on, how many calories we burn thinking. Yeah. Come on, Tim Apple, do better.

Why can't my Apple Watch figure that shit out? Oh, man. When you said Tim Apple, I was just reminded of that video he made where he was like, in three years, Mother Nature, we are going to be carbon neutral. And all of our phones are going to be... I like we're going to be carbon neutral and all of our phones are going to be i forget exactly what the claim was the thing that bummed me out like first of all the claims that they made were not true about like how good the iphone is going to be for the earth in the very near future and the right fucking apple watch but like the thing that really bummed me out was just his acting was so bad yeah and opposite like octavia spencer yeah just think don't whatever really like the worst

writing for octavia spencer ever like yeah you know she can do so much with a with a good well-written role god what was that check like though oh my god you know what i mean so that's really what like in hindsight i'm like what was that fucking check for octavia spencer because it had to be fucking wild yeah two new phones perpetual upgrades anytime we make a new one uh you get a new one you get a get it for free. All right. Let's talk about what people came here for. Yeah. Patrick Dempsey. Mm-hmm.

Dempsey Watch, a regular segment that we have on this show. You know. Damp bones, damp bones. The promise of this show is we will keep you in step with the nation's zeitgeist. And the thing on people's minds more often than not patrick dempsey what's this guy up to is he still hot and the answer is yes still nationally ranked hot coming in at number one baby oh he died in a car accident i said plane crash my bad i think he survived a plane crash yeah he's survived multiple plane crashes like they that show is so what dude

shout out shonda rhimes for being like yeah you want to see why so you want unbelievable check this out yeah and apparently he's the real unbreakable yeah right exactly that's that'd be amazing if that's the direction his plot took as they were just like he he discovers that he's unkillable actually right then tried but then tragically taken in a car accident yes all right so people magazine chose sexiest man alive i do remember seeing this headline and being like this my my phone must be going through something and it's serving me a story from like 10 years ago my phone is going through something yeah like going you know when it like updates and like it's i i don't know it felt like it was the wrong the

wrong timeline but they yeah so they announced this not through a plume of white smoke but via jimmy kimmel jimmy kimmel live announced patrick patrick Patrick McDreamy himself, a character who died, as we mentioned, five years ago, at least. 2015. Is the sexiest man alive. What did the process for that? Like, how did they even remember he existed? Because let's just go backwards, right? Last year was Chris chris evans

2021 was chris evans seems too late what yeah i know 2020 was michael b michael b was on point that was like 2019 creed 3 was about to come oh this is when okay this is when they hit their they're like yo we gotta get some black people in here. So, 2018, 2020, Michael B., 2019, John Legend, 2018, Idris Elba. Like, they're like, okay. Wow. Oh, I'm sure, and that was a make good for 2017, Blake Shelton.

Then 2016, Dwayne The Rock Johnson. 2015, Beckham. 2014, Chris Hemsworth. Beckham. Yeah. Interesting. This is an interesting, yeah. So, huh. Huh. Yeah. Interesting. This is an interesting. Yeah. So. Huh. Huh. Yeah.

So that's that's weird. They've previously previously expressed that. So a lot of people like people are immediately like, you know, this is kind of a weird choice considering that it's not currently 2005. Yeah. And they're like, well, you know, it's not just looks. Oh. As we've previously explained, we like to choose guys who are, quote, kind and good

and nice, which sounds like a seventh grader explaining why they have a crush on someone. It's not because they're cute. I like that they're kind and good and nice. Oh, okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That makes sense. That makes sense. But the way they, like, talk about the process that goes into this,

they're like, they're hidden servers. We have hushed closed-door meetings. It's like, most meetings have closed doors, by the way. But they're hushed. We whisper. We have to whisper. Do you think it could be Dempsey again? Hey, can I get the room? Actually, we're doing

our Sexiest Man Alive deliberations. We're about to go make dreamy. Shut the goal. Leave. A covert photo shoot. Which, like, if you had stumbled upon a photo shoot of Patrick Dempsey, you'd be like, this is, what, AARP? Like, what? Yeah. what yeah is this like a reverse

mortgage right company you know i mean what are we doing here unless unless motherfuckers holding a fucking big ass sign that's like 2024 2023 sexiest man alive it's covert right i'm sorry i feel like he followed he's like one of those people I recently in these past few weeks I might be a bit of a tastemaker in saying this I started following this Instagram account that's only pictures of Patrick Dempsey wow

and everybody's like I feel like all the comments are always just kind of like he's aged like a fine wine or whatever yeah which I like you know he's he's gotten he's kind of maintained his level of handsomeness. He looks great. For sure.

But it is kind of like, I feel like sexy is not the right word. It's very like, he's handsome. Yeah. Impressively. Yeah, holding up impressively well. He's the hottest dad ever. You know what I mean?

This is like their attempt at trying to be like, we heard of zaddies. We're gonna... Is this like Golden Bachelor level? But if so, it feels like you would want somebody else who

is, I don't know, just a little bit more relevant i guess so ferrari's coming out i don't know if that movie's really gonna like register that much wasn't there just ford v ferrari there was i think that's the problem with it there's so there was ford v ferrari which was like a feel-good fun movie this This feels like it's like a cold kind of, it's Michael Mann who like, I'm going to see it because I love Michael Mann. But like, and then they have Adam Driver playing Enzo Ferrari

when he just played like a Gucci guy in a performance that I enjoyed, but was not like super well received. And so it just like overlaps with a bunch of movies that like came out fairly recently so i just such a weird it's a christmas day release yeah yeah so and this is that's a different movie than that one movie that's like about a computer game or something yes that grand turismo yeah that's another one oh right right right Another race car movie that just came out. Yeah, no, this is like the biopic of the Ferrari guy.

The guy who's named, who the Ferrari's named after. That is such, again, dude, publicists. Because here's the thing. This, like, oh, kind and good and nice. I thought, like, all the rumors about this dude was he was, like, a shit bag on the set of Grey's Anatomy. Right, that's the thing. So I was like, oh, I must have missed. He is that he's like secretly one of the best dudes like behind the scenes.

And that's why where this is coming from. They were like, this is a time where like, you know, people are becoming more conscientious. We need to highlight somebody who is like known for their philanthropy and just like being a great like a mensch behind the scenes and then you like look and he's like he's like really like mean like all the like when you google patrick dempsey like the past five years the most he's been in the media for is like tea spilling reports from the gray's anatomy set where it's like yeah they had to kill him off because he he sort of like terrorized the set and like cast members have like all said they like sort of have ptsd from like working with him because he said quote

had a lot of power oh my god he had this mean to everyone quote He had this hold on the set where he knew he could stop production and scare people. What the fuck? How's that a way to describe an actor on the set? Yo, dude, he's gonna stop production and scare us, man. He knows he can.

Just making people flinch, just walking around the set like, made you flinch, bitch. the set like made you feel you the script supervisor hold that like knocks the script out of their hand you're like oh my god there's rumors that he that ellen pompeo was paid five million dollars under the table to not tell the world how toxic and nasty patrick dempsey really was that's for courtesy of Isaiah Washington, who himself was famously fired from the show for dropping homophobic slurs. Yeah.

But he has come out and been like, yeah, I was bad, but man, Patrick Dempsey, true fucking human monster. Yeah, I don't know if that's a good tactic, my man. Just don't be like, yeah, look, I did my shit, but don't know what about it. But apparently, he was saying, Patrick Dempsey told him white men were the

fucking masters of the universe. Yeah. Um, yeah. And he said, are you? Yeah. He's, he said, you, apparently he said, this is from Isaiah Washington. And I said, you really believe that? And he said, absolutely.

Isaiah, do you know that white men are the masters of the universe question mark that feels like like in a way like it's hard to believe someone who already has their own controversy for being real reckless with their words that like it's sort of phrased in a way it's like i was in a liberal coffee shop yes and i overheard you like have have I told you my good bro? You know what I mean? It's like, what? But like the,

the reason that there was a lot of interest in like what he was like behind the scenes is because he was abruptly, I mean, I get as abrupt as you can be 20 years into a show, but like people were really shocked when he was written off the show. He was like one of the leads and there were reports that shonda rhymes and he did not see a eye to eye yeah that he was which that may work if to work with if he's really out here being like you know shonda

white men masters of the universe look at he manMan Master of the universe right And what was he During the 80's There was a character named He-Man That was the masters of the universe I know dude The name is so fucking absurd We got He-Man He's not like a wolfman It's like a wolfman but it's like a he yeah just nailed on it's a man

he man yeah not they man also what is it i know this about patrick dempsey based on that instagram account is that he he like he genuinely is passionate about driving race cars or whatever. That's kind of his thing. It's kind of his thing. And now it's just like, what is up with people? What's the correlation between NASCAR driving or just race car driving and racism? What is it about it that attracts you?

Right there, dude. There's the word race. There you go. Race cars. Oh, shit. Racing. You know what I mean racism it's been right there the whole time damn oh my god time but man damn he's 57 57 yo bro i wish i had my fucking hairline like that 57 yeah great head of hair great i mean great looking man i i don't want to say anything against it just feels like not going to cast this version over his looks. They're attempting to be like,

and here he is, the person that you've all been fiending for after, lusting after for this past year. And it's a person you haven't thought about in a decade. Since Scream 3. Yeah. So he's apparently in that new thanksgiving movie to producer victor just dropped that in the chat which is interesting because the

trailer for that movie i was like man they did not get anyone for this because they are cutting around people's faces like they're not even showing that there are any recognizable actors in this thanksgiving movie so shit it feels like i don't know that that trailer almost proves my point for me about dempsey like that he's not seen as an asset for opening a movie at all like even a movie where there's like nobody in it like it it really feels like not he's not it's not like patrick dempsey in thanksgiving right he's like one of the people i guess you see but it's not it's not heavily featured wow yeah people people magazine sexiest man of the year just in general has has a history of like their choices are almost always some white dude other than like the run that miles was

mentioning and in 2017 blake shelton was their sexiest man and this is like post him coming out and like as a donald trump supporter with a history of like weird tweets homophobic tweets and racist and xenophobic tweets where he's like gotten really what would he say wish the dickhead in the next room would either shut up or learn some english so i would at least know what he's planning to bomb double exclamation point that was a that was a blake shelton tweet yeah wow just even just i when, when we first started the show, we were talking about some of those tweets and he was like, can my, where are they gays at?

Like, you're like, wait, what? And he was talking about making weird Skittles jokes or something. He was like, is it gay to like Skittles? Where am I?

He's at. Yeah. Is it gay to like Skittles? Come on, Blake. Come on. But yeah, I mean like when you kick things off with Mel Gibson

yeah they kick things off with Mel Gibson they gave it to Sean Connery like a year after he declared himself a domestic abuser in that interview with Barbara Walters like it feels like they're like as long as he can drive a race car that's like a thing

definitely that exists where people are like oh man like men who can drive a race car that's right that's like a thing definitely that exists where people are like oh man like men who can drive a race car are the hottest men i'm like i i guess i've never really been that into race car driving so that that always kind of falls on dead ears but maybe that's what i'm missing yeah like harrison ford has race car vibes because he likes to fly planes tom cruise been on the list he's got race car vibes because he's always like on. Tom Cruise has been on the list. He's got race car vibes because he's always on a motorcycle. He's in Days of Thunder. Yeah, that's true. Yeah, there you go. Dude, I've always

wanted to drink Mellow Yellow because of that movie because that was like the hood sponsor of that car, I remember. And they didn't sell it out in LA. I never found Mellow Yellow and to this day, I think about Mellow Yellow in the context of Days of Thunder. Denzel Washington, he doesn't really have race car vibes to me.

No. George Clooney? I bet he can drive a car pretty well, but he can't. Yeah. Like his character, if he hops in a car, I'm like he's going to know what to do with that thing. Brad Pitt has like motorcycle vibes. Yeah. Richard Gere? There is something specific. what to do with that thing brad pitt has like motorcycle vibes yeah but it is your gear there

is something specific like you you need to have race car driver vibes yeah yeah oh wow it says that with richard gear i was like i wonder about him does he have like race car vibes this is so funny and when he was with a selected in like 1999 he'd been it and he had been the sexiest man in like 93 they said they had interviewed some of man in like 93. They said they had interviewed some of his former exes and they said, they talked to People Magazine about Gere's appeal. Quote, he walked like a biker and that attracted

me. Walked like a biker? What does that mean? That was Diane Van Furstenberg who said that. Does that mean he's like bow-legged? What does that mean? I don't know. Like he was really sore and like yeah he had testicular swelling you know yeah very sensitive about that right yeah oh and then look at that i didn't realize uh bradley cooper yeah these are all very bradley cooper

i feel like has race car vibes like i could see him driving a race car pretty well johnny depp i couldn't see but he has he falls into that like vibe yeah they've given it to johnny depp twice and brad pitt twice the vibe is almost like it's like men who are like trying to prove that they still got it yeah they like when a guy's like going hard like, hey, I'm still appealing and have something to offer. It's so effortful and they're like, we see you. Yeah.

We're going to give you this title. It reminds me of they're not necessarily trying to appeal to us as much as it's more like who could win if they ran for like president of sexiness like you know like win all the

all the middle American states and stuff like that right yeah yeah just a big beating heart America's beating heart finds this person sexy has Liam Neeson won it yet I don't think so.

I feel like he would... He gives race car energy. He's like mom. He like moms love Liam Neeson. Yeah. He would be a good candidate for this. For sure. And he's like problematic a little bit. And like... Oh yeah. When he said he wanted to like

murder a black person? Oh my god. Remember that shit. But he knew it was bad. So it's cool. It was bad, but also this isn't piss on my pants either. It's, it's a,
