Starting point is 00:01:49 I knew I wanted to obey and submit, but I didn't fully grasp for the rest of my life what that meant. For my heart podcasts and Rococo Punch, this is the turning, River Road. In the woods of Minnesota, a cult leader married himself to ten girls and forced them into a secret life of abuse But in 2014 the youngest escaped Listen to the turning River Road on the I heart radio app Apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts Hello the internet and welcome to this episode of her reddit trendy
Starting point is 00:02:26 That's right. They're all talking about it. It's the number one trending thing right now. For some reason, this movie that came out seven years ago, longer eight, eight years ago. She's got a career ahead of her. I tell you. Tony Collette. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:43 A revelation. I just watched hereditary and it's trending in my heart That's my name is Jack that over there is miles gray. Thank you my mother My your mother I am his serving mother. I am I am serving mothership. I am serving Joe Rogan's comedy mothership Saw somebody wearing that shirt recently cool shirt Joe Rogan's comedy mothership. Saw somebody wearing that shirt recently. Cool shirt bro. Yeah, I saw it.
Starting point is 00:03:08 Cool shirt bro. I see people with like kill Tony shit on sometimes. Yeah. Fucking freak, why? Come on. This shit sucks. You sure about that? You sure about that?
Starting point is 00:03:19 That's the shirt you wanna wear bro? You got fucking shitty taste fam. That's okay, that's okay, that's okay. That's your right to have shitty taste On things that are trending with other people besides me. Uh-huh. There is of course the South Park season premiere Last week. Yeah from last week But we do we do it will be it will be trending with me in seven years I do things on a seven-year curve. That's why this is such a good,
Starting point is 00:03:48 like a Macadamia nut farmer. Host for a trending news podcast. The South Park season premiere is, it set records for numbers dating in terms of cable audience share. It had the biggest share of cable audience viewers since 1999. That's for people watching that live, I'm guessing. I think it's live and then streaming on their particular streaming platform.
Starting point is 00:04:16 Right, right, right. Oh, right. They put all that data. Attractive 5.9 million viewers across Comedy Central and the Paramount Plus streaming service to 5.9 million viewers across Comedy Central and the Paramount Plus streaming service last week, which I feel like those numbers are low. Well, I think you can't track how many people purely just watch the clips and didn't watch the whole episode. They just got to the fucking,
Starting point is 00:04:38 ooh, what you talking about Trump parts? You know what I mean? Yeah. Like I didn't watch the full episode. I just watched all the clips that they put out on their YouTube channel to get to them. It just seemed to be all anyone was talking about last week and not just at the liberal coffee shops that I go to, but also at the best pro shops that I go to
Starting point is 00:04:57 to spy on what mega country is doing. Gun World even? Gun World, I went to gun world for a little bit and they were all talking about it. B and D guns. But yeah, it just seemed like it went hyper viral. It's the equivalent of a kid saying, fuck you to the teacher in class
Starting point is 00:05:16 and everyone goes, ooh, and you go, you wanna see it. I mean, the funny thing was, you know, so it comes out Wednesdays. So yeah, what yesterday would have been season two. They're like, run back the first episode. Oh really? Yeah. They just ran it back. I mean, they do that.
Starting point is 00:05:32 They, they skip weeks like South Park does that, but it's just funny even for like, what's the next episode? Like we're not going to have an episode this week, but instead enjoy that one again. Well, they have a Charlie Kirk episode coming out. That, that is the next episode is gonna be Cartman takes on like the personality of Charlie Kirk. But I guess, I don't know what exactly happened.
Starting point is 00:05:56 I know that they're always like making the episode up to the very last second. Yeah. So maybe the corporate parents were not we're not thrilled with how that No, they said it has nothing to do with that It was purely just like their normal kind of flow of production or they're like, yeah, don't worry We're coming back and in this episode Donald Trump will be just tugging off Satan at a dinner under the table. So
Starting point is 00:06:21 They're not I don't think they're hitting the brakes. Nice. They're just doing the hits. They're playing the hits for the first time. The hits. Exactly. You should just be tugging away at Lucifer during a charity dinner. How could you not? And how could you not be? All right. Let's check in with the Democrats. Where they at? Oh, well, it's just a lot of, a lot of headlines this week was from Pete Buttigieg, who no doubt is going to run in 2028 based on how he's been positioning himself on the news and just these sort of quotes he's been giving. But his last thing was sort of like,
Starting point is 00:06:54 the Democratic Party cannot look the same in post-Trump if we're going to get past this. There's no way. And he sort of, like the main thing people latched onto was this sort of quote where he was like Yeah, we lost in 2024 because the Democrats are so hooked on the fucking status quo and people hate that shit So like trying to like rebuild whatever's been destroyed by Trump is not the way out of this Like it's about providing like a new vision of the future Mike. Those are the right words now
Starting point is 00:07:21 Yeah, are those the right? What are the now? How do they apply to the world? Exactly, exactly. Like, I mean, you know, I think we've seen the example from Zorn, my very good friend Zorn Mamedani. Zorn Mamedani. At how like doing a full frontal attack on inequity is a winning formula, but are the Democrats willing to do that work?
Starting point is 00:07:42 Because, you know, there's's already the land developers in New York who are trying to find another candidate to get behind with all their money that isn't Zoram Mabdani. So right now, I think one of the biggest moral issues facing the party is obviously their embrace of Israel as they continue to systematically starve Palestinians in Gaza and pretend that the world isn't watching. Like a new, we've talked about all the polling that's around that, how the sentiment is shifting.
Starting point is 00:08:12 You know, new poll shows that the Democrats voters are more sympathetic to Palestinians than they are Israelis with 60% being like, I'm more sympathetic to Palestinian people and only 12% saying I'm more sympathetic to the Israeli people. 12%. 12%. And like that's a... Down from, I don't know, like 70, like within the past decade. 2017, it was something like 45% of the support was going towards Israeli people. Like, but this was before you had, like people were just generally like, yeah, I think that's what it is.
Starting point is 00:08:44 I think that's the right answer. But now that you're seeing starvation, famine, genocide in 4K, it's gone the other way. And it's funny, like even on CNN, they're like, wow, this dramatic shift. It's like this shit didn't happen fucking like at the snap of a finger. Like this has been something people have been paying attention to at a minimum since October of 2023. And so now the rather than go with like the morally right thing and end the nonstop arm shipments to the Israeli government, the Democrats are putting more time into winning back voters,
Starting point is 00:09:17 quote unquote, by like thinking they just need to do more podcasts or say the word fuck out loud in news hits. So, you know, I don't know, the first step to like upending the status quo should be to stop arming Israel. That feels like a win, you know, you're, you're not providing more arms to do harm to innocent people. The only danger in that region, as we've seen to other people has been Israel in terms of how offensive in nature they are with like these militaristic campaigns.
Starting point is 00:09:49 So you know, that seems like some loaf hanging fucking fruit. And you know, it's not that the actions of the Israeli government are popular by any stretch. So like let go of the fear of being primaried by like APAC. Like what are they going to do? Run ads that say you are anti-child starvation? Where at this point, you know, like it's, you, this is- It's a bad look for us.
Starting point is 00:10:10 It takes- So we haven't looked specifically at how that tests. How that pulls yet. Yeah, we need to see how- Cut to DNC headquarters. I mean, can they get us with that? The anti-child starvation thing? Is there a way they can get us on that?
Starting point is 00:10:21 I don't know. But they had the fucking opportunity to do the right thing and begin to turn away from business as usual. When Bernie Sanders introduced another bill to block arm sales, but 19 Democratic senators joined the GOP to keep the bullets and bombs flowing. And again, this bill was never going to pass the house. And we know the Democrats love a symbolic vote.
Starting point is 00:10:45 You know, you'd love that. Well, we know, let's get people on paper. They're still worried about being on the record as being on the right side of history on this one. Yeah. Well, you, I mean, you sealed it and shame on these 19 fucking senators, Michael Bennett, Richard Blumenthal, Cory Booker, Maria Campbell, Chris Coons, Catherine Cortez Masto, John Fetterman, Jilla Brand, Maggie Hassan, John Hickenlooper, John Ossoff, Alex Padilla, Gary Peters, Jack Reed, Jackie Rosen,
Starting point is 00:11:11 Adam Schiff, Chuck Schumer, Mark Warner, Ron Wyden, fucking L's. Like many of the most powerful people in the. Yeah, exactly. These votes reveal to us how unserious they are. You can't even symbolically vote to say, hey, maybe we should stop enabling this shit because it would be a maybe because it wouldn't fucking do anything
Starting point is 00:11:31 because the votes aren't there in the house. But holy shit, like fucking figure it out. Like then Kamala Harris has like a book. She's teasing that's going to come out this fall but like 107 days, like what I learned and you're just gonna be like it's gonna be some kind of to hear how that yeah what went wrong yeah yeah I'm yeah with bated breath that'd be crazy if she was like yeah I don't know like we seem to have a spark at first when we had like progressive policies and then
Starting point is 00:11:59 like all these people were like we got to court the Cheney vote. Specifically, like get the Cheneys to vote for us seemed to be the, they said was the most important thing. When I lined up the polling and support numbers, it, we were ahead of Trump. We had a huge boost and then we started going down after that. That was weird. And especially for all the fucking, you know, vote blue, no matter who freaks who are like, it was because of Gaza and people have their votes back from Gaza. Like, no, it was so many fucking things. Yeah, but trust me
Starting point is 00:12:28 But not fucking actually acknowledging the suffering of Palestinian people that was that was that definitely you could put that in the L column That did not help you with anyone. Yeah, I don't think I don't think that was great seem completely unprincipled Just unrelated but related Cory Booker's like audition tape for the West Wing, where he like stands there. And he's like, I stand for New Jersey. I stand with the cops of New Jersey. It's we, you know, we've talked about the starvation and the continued siege of Gaza, but even Donald Trump seems to be admitting that there is starvation in God.
Starting point is 00:13:10 Like so Netanyahu predictably denied not only that Israel is intentionally starving Gaza, but that there is starvation in Gaza at all. He said there is no policy of starvation in Gaza and there is no starvation in Gaza. Interesting. How can there be starvation in Gaza if there's no Gaza? That's my question. Also at Burger King, I like to get double whoppers. The claim was refuted by the Israeli military itself.
Starting point is 00:13:39 Senior Israeli military officials said there's no evidence that... So his claim is like, we try and give them food and Hamas keeps stealing it. I saw him on the note on full send. Well, I saw that episode exactly. And then I'm still the Israeli military itself was like, actually, we don't have evidence of that. The actual cause of food shortage is Israel's continued military siege against Gaza, including including blockade against supplies
Starting point is 00:14:07 that would allow Gazan bakeries to produce food. They just like won't, won't allow that to happen. And then, you know, when they lift the blockade, it's extremely slow, which like the speed at which they approve trucks and food entering. So Donald Trump Diabolical like oh my god. I'm just sorry going when Donald Trump was asked whether he agreed with Netanyahu That reports of starvation were lies Trump said I don't know those children look very hungry. That's real starvation stuff That's real starvation stuff. That's a starvation stuff crust pizza, dude.
Starting point is 00:14:46 Okay. That's my quote as the leader of the quote unquote free world. The fact that that's real starvation stuff is like some of the strongest condemnation of this genocide that we've had from the US government is pretty depressing. Yeah. Oh, like I wanna see a fucking ad
Starting point is 00:15:06 where you put the footage in front of a democratic senator or congressman and be like, what the fuck is going on in your brain when you look at this? Because any other human being looks at this and goes, what the fuck am I looking at? Why am I looking at this level of suffering, this level of absolute inhumane treatment of people?
Starting point is 00:15:28 And you guys are fucking, like you're literally cosigning this with your votes. Yeah. Oh, I got my head down. I got my head. Man, get these fucking, like, you know, these people need to get primaried at best. Please retire, get the fuck out of here.
Starting point is 00:15:44 Because I don't know if you've seen like, even the footage of the people when they are allowed to go to these aid distribution sites, the fucking sheer humanity of it all is, I've not even seen anything depicted like this in a fucking fictitious film, like the level of desperation that I see in people's faces as they try and feed themselves and their families
Starting point is 00:16:05 as they go through like a storm of bullets to try and get fucking food. Yeah. Sure, but yeah, make your vote so you can let everybody know you're, I stand with Israel. And then yeah, Cory Booker also stands with the police. We get it, all of, yep.
Starting point is 00:16:24 But shout out to the others who, you know, at least we're like, mm, this is maybe a bridge too far for even my conscience. By the way, Donald Trump didn't have like a Christmas Carol style reckoning with his hand in genocide. He's still being like, I mean, still nobody's done anything good over there.
Starting point is 00:16:40 The whole place is a mess. Yeah, that's what I hate about the headlines I've read about like, they're like, Oh, Trump rethinking Gaza policy. Trump shocked at level of quotes, real starvation stuff. And then you read it's like, yeah, but nothing's, yeah. It's like a lot of, it's just like with Joe Biden, it's just like hand wringing. Yeah. And at best, they are thinking of alternatives, but we're going to be dealing with Israel and we think they can do a good job of it.
Starting point is 00:17:07 Yeah. Is what is still where he stands. So all right, let's take a quick break. We'll be right back. For My Heart podcasts and Rococo Punch, this is The Turning, River Road. I knew I wanted to obey and submit, but I didn't fully grasp for the rest of my life what that meant. In the woods of Minnesota, a cult leader married himself to ten girls and forced them into a secret life of abuse.
Starting point is 00:17:47 Why did I think that way? Why did I allow myself to get so sucked in by this man and thinking to the point that if I died for him that would be the greatest honor? But in 2014, the youngest of the girls escaped and sparked an international manhunt. For all those years, you know, he was the predator and I was the prey. And then he became the prey.

And I thought this headline said Trump to receive presidential fitness tests.
Starting point is 00:21:14 Unfortunately, that would be so fucking great. That would that would break ratings records just watching him try to do a pull off. Oh my God, dude. I'd rather look at his AI fucking micro dick over and over than watch this. The AI micro dick was actually just I think Trey Parker's finger with a rubber band around it. Oh yeah that wasn't AI right? Yeah that was just somebody's finger. Oh well that was a hot finger. But he's going to bring it back. This test of children that he wouldn't have been able to complete in the past 30 years, I'm guessing, but he wants every young American to have the opportunity
Starting point is 00:21:56 to emphasize healthy, active lifestyles, creating a culture of strength and excellence for years to come. This is like part of RFK's thing where he's like, everything was the result of, you know, obesity. Like it's just your fault. That's the reason that things are bad. Yeah. And you like burger. And they're also planning to launch
Starting point is 00:22:17 a new online health service that will like consolidate your medical records across health systems. But they are not doing this with any sort of like pumped up spending or like, you know, funding a governmental program. They're just teaming up with a bunch of existing like private companies like Google, Amazon, Apple and United Health. Yeah, so nothing can go wrong with there to just have we've seen how companies treat our private information.
Starting point is 00:22:45 Exactly. I'm constantly bombarded with fucking spam calls. Now that they'll get really specific about talking about your medical conditions as they scam you, yeah, that'll be great. Yeah, that is gonna be, that's gonna be bad. The White House is weighing in on the Sidney Sweeney jeans controversy, predictably.
Starting point is 00:23:06 Yeah, they probably said, what? Fuck yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Basically White House director of communication, Steven Chung, our guy, saddest man in America. Yeah. Has dubbed the fallout over the recent American Eagle advertisements starring Sydney Sweeney bullshit.
Starting point is 00:23:20 He says cancel culture, run amok. This warped moronic and dense liberal thinking is a big reason why Americans voted the way they did in 2024. They're tired of this bullshit How can both parties be so fucking off on how this election went down? Yeah Yeah, yeah, we fucking sit you're sick of the fucking woke one. No, they're sick of being fucking poor and exploited Okay, but go off and be like and then the other side is like it's cuz it's cuz we didn't go to the center and They're sick of the fucking woke one. No, they're sick of being fucking poor and exploited. Okay. But go off on being like, and then the other side is like, it's cause we didn't go to the center enough.
Starting point is 00:23:50 Yeah, Jesus Christ. It's so fucking tiring. But yeah, sure, man. It's cause Sydney Sweeney's too hot for liberals or some shit. Yeah, guys, I don't know. I mean, it's just interesting to see it, like just the discourse around this ad campaign
Starting point is 00:24:07 where it's like one version is like zoomed out from outer space, you're like, yeah, it's a fucking pun. It's about her jeans and she's wearing denim jeans. You zoom in and say, hold on though. Hold on, what year is it again? We live in a country where white supremacy is like the default now, like the bias, like because of the government, especially this administration, not that it ever wasn't,
Starting point is 00:24:29 but truly being like, sorry, y'all, like this is what it is now, mask off. To then have a fucking commercial with someone, like, you know, who fits the sort of like Aryan goddess stereotype, it hits people's brains a little bit differently. But yeah. Yeah, just feels, it feels like, I don't know,
Starting point is 00:24:50 sometimes you have to look at like ad campaigns within the cultural context that they're created and intended and this one feels a little bit like they were like, I mean, it's not aimed at getting those people on board. Yeah, well, I mean, certainly not aimed at getting them mad. Yeah. Well, yeah. And you see their reaction.
Starting point is 00:25:09 They're like, yes. Fucking finally. Yeah, exactly. Finally, an end to the woke ads with someone with a what was it? Someone with an oversized bottom or something. It's like someone weird fucking comment. I worried about that. Yeah. And finally, there's a new.
Starting point is 00:25:28 We always like to check every. Yeah, the last story is going to be some junk food. I think they were like bullshit. Yeah. This is from Parade magazine. Do you remember Parade magazine? Like coming in the newspaper? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:43 I was like, what is this? And they had that front section where like a woman with a genius IQ would answer your questions and her answers were just like the most conventional. It was just like Ann Landers, but they were like, this woman tested with a genius IQ. Right. Ask Marilyn or something. Anyways. You really took umbrage of that, huh?
Starting point is 00:26:04 Are you like, what do you know, Marilyn? You know, shit, Marilyn. Shit about. Yeah. Ask Marilyn by Marilyn Voss Savant. I mean, her name was Savant. Yeah. Nominal determinism. Yeah, exactly. She's like, I better keep taking this test until I can game it enough to test as a. Oh, so her whole thing. She has the highest recorded IQ in the Guinness Book of World Records. Oh, so her whole thing, she has the highest recorded IQ
Starting point is 00:26:25 in the Guinness Book of World Records. Damn, son. So I love that super, just easy, like, this lady with the highest IQ, now her personal life is a fucking mess, but I ask for anything. Just ask for help. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:38 Anyways, what they're reporting on, somebody went to an Albertson's grocery store and spotted a new light blue and white share size bag of M&Ms that is cookies and cream flavor. And people are intrigued. Take all my money now, one fan replied. They taste like the end of the ice cream cones with chocolate in them. A second shared with a second.
Starting point is 00:27:04 That second one is a child. That's a baby. There's a baby It takes the end of ice cream with the top it in them. Yeah Babies and putting microphones in their face Yummy before a third said they're quote definitely good Yeah, journalism and a fourth replied with hands pinched together and punching them together more more The child signed. Hmm. I don't want to get my hopes up someone else quipped, but they sound good lol So anyway, is this like a what? What's your how do you feel about I feel like cookies and cream kind of flavors can be really hit or miss real hit or miss
Starting point is 00:27:46 It's like a chemical taste. Yeah, I feel in you know, it can be really fucking bad and also The M&Ms when the middle ain't crunchy. Yeah, I'm not always a fan of this shit I had like a brownie one that they had recently. It was just like so sweet. You yeah I don't like I also don't like the peanut butter ones. And I know that's a controversial take. That's just a Reese's piece. Reese's pieces are better than that. Reese's is a better peanut butter in the middle than they do. So why would I do this? Those always make me, they have not hit that balance where I can keep eating M&M peanut butter without feeling sick. I feel sick a third of the way through the bag Oh, yeah, whereas Eminem peanuts I could eat for three days in a row
Starting point is 00:28:29 I'll unhinge my jaw and swallow a whole bag like a fucking anaconda. Yeah, I'm gonna peanuts are dangerous But like it so the thing that would be working against this one in my mind is it's pretty I'm an em, but it's a tailor the tape tape. M&M pretzels should be good. We're not good. Yeah. The crunchy middle ones were good. Like the crunchies, middle's crunchies.
Starting point is 00:28:54 Those kind of like a puff. Yeah, M&M's. That's what you need. And I think I learned about the pretzel ones from watching Hard Knocks when Rex Ryan was the coach of the Jets. Cause he kept housing them. And I was like, this is the best dad.
Starting point is 00:29:06 Should have been better than they were. The way Rex Ryan sold me, I was like, dude, this motherfucker is loving him. The opposite of a celebrity endorsement. Like, oh my God. You're like, fuck, dude, easy. He's like, you guys seen these? Like, you're eating the bag, coach.
Starting point is 00:29:22 Yeah. Anyways, I can see these going either way, but parade seems to say they taste like the end of an ice cream cone with chocolate in them.
