Oh, it's good to be here and watch that not rhyme. Yeah.

I think it was more like, I thought I was reading it more as A-A-Ayers. It's a lot like that song, the throw your hands in the air. That's what we're looking for. That came out when I was in college, and boy, did it get yelled at me. Okay. Yeah, yeah. Wait, ATL Eats came out when you were in college? No, it was like the popular remix sort of like thing uh maybe like a girl talk remix or something like that yeah yeah there's a point in my life i

thought girl talk was the only good musician that's right that was true that was like i remember you would pull up to a party be like yo have you fucking heard this girl talk shit? What? Dude, I'm just playing. It's called Night Ripper. I burned this CD. Out of art. But it's just that garage band before I did. Yeah.

And also he did one of the... Yeah, well, he has a couple remixes here and there. I see them pop up. But whenever you'd see him live, he'd always use this like janky ass like ibm think book or whatever and he would just saran wrap it because there's so much sweat and beer and shit flying those live shows though they're very fun entire vibe he really embraced just hitting play and having a party do you know what i mean where it seems like some people who

sort of do the dj thing trying it's like i know you're not doing anything up there right now i don't need you to look busy just shoot confetti at me yeah yeah exactly and invite everybody on stage yeah yeah we do need a confetti bazooka for our next live show experience i have a digital one if you want a green screened confetti bazooka you could use oh really zoom yeah yeah that sounds great just for boring meetings, especially. And it goes, yay! Especially when you're a dry corporate going, gosh, we got some great news. So two, three, blah, blah, blah.

Yay! Pop, pop. Yay! Sick. All right, Kyle, we're going to get to know you a little bit better in a moment. First, we're going to tell our listeners what we're talking about today. You know, we're in the home stretch. So we're going to talk about where the Trump campaign's head is at. We're going to

talk about where the rest of the Republican Party's head is at. We're going to take some advice from Nate Silver. He's trying to keep us sane in this stretch run. We're going to take some advice from Nate Silver. He's trying to keep us sane in this stretch run. We're going to look at a new report coming out that says Facebook specifically altered their algorithm in 2017 to throttle traffic to what they refer to as left-leaning sites. We're going to check in with Chris Pratt's closet Trump support. We're going to look into what the 50 scientifically scariest movies of all time are, according to some half-assed science project that somebody just did.

And if we have time, we might get to the plot for Space Jam 2. All of that, plenty more. But first, Kyle, throw your hands in the airs. What is something from your search history that is revealing about who you are? Oh, I can't believe you teased him with, and if there's time, we'll get to the thing everyone cares about most.

That's how we keep them going, and then we just push it off until after the election. And if there's time, we'll do the sack of money giveaway at the end. If there's time. They have dollar signs on it. So the last thing I Google searched is The Office Season 2 Torrent. Okay. I wanted to make a funny video.

And it is so hard to just find a clip. I mean, I know. Okay, I'm admitting to theft now that i hear it out loud but i just wanted one little clip of a thing why can't i use a little clip of a thing just give me which clip you're looking for i wanted to promote my album by pretending jim and pam were listening to it on that ipod scene of that oh it's like what you listen to you like when you share an airpod yeah yeah and have them put the airpod in and it's it's uh me screaming and uh so i went to go find the clip and you can't because it's all in like 1p online like the standardist definition

possible because it's been like downgraded and so i went and i um you know what for the purpose of this i bought it and i own the rights to it i own the copyright yeah that bought NBC. I'm bringing CISO back. That's smart of them to just Who says CISO? That's smart of them to just sell off chunks of the show to individual people just one at a time. That seems like part of a dystopian nightmare where you're like,

actually, my neighbor owns every Dwight quote. Like, how? You remember when they started gutting that thing? I don't own Acme, but I own Acme products from Looney Tunes episodes. So you're not allowed to. You can watch it almost land on Wile E. Coyote, but if you're going to actually

watch it hit him, you have to hit me up. Then you have to pay me, yeah. I'm a Michael Scott baron. I own all the Michael Scott quotes. I mean, Jack, it was a risk. A lot of people were like, that character might not resonate in the fact it might become so dated it might become toxic. You bet big

and look at you now. I bought the rights during season one when everyone was like, this guy this isn't going to work. This guy sums up with his hairline. Michael Scorn quotes and Prison Mike quotes. There's a lot of weird court cases we have to get into when it comes to that. I I believe it's Michael Skarn.

Skarn, yeah. See, that was my typo. It was costing me. It's funny. I almost bought these. My lawyers are going to be all over that. They're these Nike hiking shoes called the Air Skarn. Oh, yeah.

And I nearly, yeah, I just almost bought them because of the Michael Skarn parallel. And I'm like, man, what the fuck? This is only going to resonate. And it's only for me. I'm like, man, I'm... This is only going to resonate to me. And it's only for me. I'm like, yo, what's up, man? What up, serious hiker? These are Air Skarns. They're like, my leg is broken and I need a medivac. And I'm like, all right.

I'm cutting my arm off right now to get out of this rock if you could let me go. You're just yelling. You're like, check out my specific shoes. And they're like, can you pull your mask up? Sorry. Sorry. I just had to let you know about these the scars i didn't need to see your mouth to describe that you were wearing air scarves just thought you might not have heard me when i said i didn't want you to get into the scorn scorn situation laughter kyle what is something you think is underrated underrated i always struggle with this because i wrote down two things for both of them

i'm sorry hey i think uh uh electric toothbrushes underrated um i used my electric toothbrush for a while and then it uh it wasn't working and i went back to a normie and then the first time i used an electric toothbrush again it felt like i'd gone to the dentist for a cleaning yeah yeah right right right as opposed to just pushing that broom around maybe i don't know what i'm doing but our listeners know i mean with the new quip smart head i mean you can gamify i didn't mean to easy you into an ad i mean for real it gives you tips on that stroke you know what i mean yeah i wasn't trying to ease you into an ad but the other thing i think is underrated is square space. No, just me and my undies. The other thing I put for underrated is just kind of watching the first thing you think you want to watch when you're looking for something to watch. you don't have to scroll down you don't have to scroll over you want to watch the firm that's fine you'll be happy when you're 12 minutes in and you're committed to something just kind of

watch the thing yeah yeah i do i have the worst uh content commitment phobia like when it comes like when i'm about to eat and you're trying to put the perfect thing on and i'll literally my food will just disintegrate and rot by the time i've decided like what i could even watch right now which is crazy that yeah exactly and twinkies and they're just completely gone off by the time i get to them but yeah i i have tried to be like i'll trust the algorithm and then sometimes i'm like this is so bad and then i just eat quicker and i'm done and i'm off to do something more productive. So in a way, it helps.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So just kind of watch the thing, you know, you, you'll be all right. Just kind of put,

what did you watch recently? I started watching, uh, the boys on Amazon prime. I gave into overwhelming, uh, promoted tweets and also finally linked Amazon prime to my TV. And I wanted to reward myself for doing that

and i watched one episode of it it's good i guess yeah i don't know i'll stick with it and then i uh what other thing i watched is in my overrated so okay let's do it what is your overrated all right my overrated first thing lacroix um not what i watched but all the others i like all i like give me a seltzer from a brand that seems like it was invented by one guy in a bodega. I don't need... I think that they're too... They're not better than other seltzers.

Yeah. No, they're not. Yeah? I mean... And you feel like they're too corporate? They're too focus-grouped? They're just like, what do we... They don't have a cherry flavor. That is true. Yeah, it's got to get Waterloo. Waterloo's Black Cherry.

I love Waterloo's Black Cherry. I know. Black Cherry is the best seltzer flavor, and they don't even wade into those waters. Instead, they're out here. You've got to just take the word essence off the box. The other thing I thought was overrated was the trial of the

Chicago 7. Okay, I'm hearing different takes from different sides on this. What are your thoughts? I don't want to make it into a big movie rant sort of situation, and aside from the viral tweet where you find out that he reused 40 lines

from his previous works in this movie, which is incredible to watch, and I'm not joking. Yeah, he loves to plagiarize himself. Sorkinisms. Yeah, I've never seen something be less than the sum of its parts in such a spectacular manner. Do you know what I mean? It's like when a sports team, like the Philadelphia Eagles that one year signed like the 10 best free agents in the league and then went eight and eight

that's what this felt like happened right it's like you put all the all the acting is good if you ask me what's good like what's good about it i would list all of the parts of making a movie right i'm like yeah it's good but then it made i felt like i was watching the the first uh the debut night of a high school play the entire time or like what what like if this is like a black box theater one-man show draw like when they saw in barry that show barry they made fun of acting in a way where they all put on this performance as like a a ensemble that's what this felt like everything was so dramatic like very showy performances everyone interrupts each other with the most witty thing possible and i'm like no one's like this

i hang out with all comedians and most is mostly duds there's no way that everyone's behaving like this and also it was just felt like all of our it felt like all of my midwestern my parents would love this movie so much right because. Because it makes you feel good. You're like, well, there's a right way for progress is basically what it says. Where you can't go too far this way. You got to go down the middle. You got to feel. And it's like that, but that isn't what it is.

Right. It felt like I was being talked down to the entire time. It felt like I was being talked down to the entire time. Um, and, uh, like, it felt like, I don't like a Disney movie. Like I think miracle had like more, uh, uh,

social depth than this did or something, but it just, I, I, despite it being so significant, the first 30 minutes of the movie, I felt insane because it's cut together. Like someone's making like SNL is making fun of Aaron Sorkin where everything is.

Everyone gets a walk and talkin where everything is everyone it's a walk and talk there's a walk and talk through a black panthers like apartment and you're just like this is a one bedroom in philly how's he where's he walking it's so small and you just you you felt like it was satire and then it sort of settles in and then you just are like and then i looked i'm like everyone has to hate this right Because Sorkin feels like he's making fun of himself. And I'm like, it's a 95% on Rotten Tomatoes. Right. And I'm just, how is this? It has all the stuff that I dislike about stuff that's exclusively Netflix,

which means it feels like it was half the budget of anything else, and it feels rushed. And then it had all the stuff I dislike about Sorkin, which is it loved itself and thought it was smarter than anything anyone else has ever made. Yeah. And that it was more significant than anything that exists. I have a pitch for Aaron Sorkin

to just do a series version of The Social Network 2. I don't think he's great at writing characters he admires because i think then the characters become too or or like if they're saying the thing that he thinks is right it gets like too he gets too up his own ass but like i thought the social network was his best i think the social network might be the most important movie of a decade. That's like how back and forth I am with this guy. A Few Good Men is a perfect movie. The West Wing is the best political pop culture thing that has ever, well, Veep is, but The West Wing is great.

And then here we are with this, and I'm just like, what is happening? And I think it's exactly what you're saying when he rewrites history to be in line with sort of his neoliberal uh sort of beliefs and his neo he's so confident in his uh worldview that he just and he's good at like putting it into words but he just it becomes like too pat and it doesn't really cohere to history whereas i i want him and fincher to like that that was a great super villain origin story but holy shit when you look at like what facebook has done since being founded and reaching a billion users it's It's nightmarish and also just interacts with history

in all sorts of horrifying ways. And yeah, I would love to see that. I think it's almost a responsibility that they have. I don't know, because it's like, but like Facebook, they will skirt any responsibility for anything they've ever made has an impact society. I love the social network and think it's just so important yeah and so good and a lot of it's really great because sorkin didn't have to write anything it was all written down and by the people in the movie are the 20 people who talk like sorkin thinks everyone talks

it's all lawyers and people who are smarter than lawyers. It's great. I didn't love the trial of Chicago 7. Anyone who isn't a neoliberal, anyone who isn't my parents, they all talk with a condescending fatal flaw within they have some sort of kindness or something personable about them at the end, I suppose. Yeah.

The other show that your response reminds me of is The Newsroom, where it's like, what if? I don't want to derail the whole podcast and you get me started talking about The Newsroom. Oh, my God. But people were touting the pilot speech that he gives. Like Aaron Sorkin was the only one who knew that America might not be the greatest country in the history

of the world and people were like oh you really gotta watch wasn't there like a wildly popular twitter account that was a fake version of a fake guy from the show right yeah I think so that makes too much sense Kyle though while you're here since you're a Chiefs fan

underrated Marvin Snoop Mins fan, underrated, Marvin Snoop Minnis. Underrated or overrated? Properly rated by the fact that two out of 14 people remember who he is, but he had a nice impact on those two. So I'll say

every Chiefs player post-Derek Thomas, pre-Patrick Mahomes, is properly rated. Right. Dante Hall? Underrated. You immediately named the one. A little overshadowed by Devin Hester.

He might be the second best returner of all time, but when you exist at the exact same time as the best one. Yeah, it's hard. A lot of guys we don't talk about because of Jordan. Dante Hall got me betting on football. Basically. I won a bet. I think it was the beginning of the season or something. I had a bet going on the Chiefs.

He delivered it. I was like, this guy is great. That season, I probably lost the most money on football. He personally got you. He was like, I think we're. That season, I probably lost the most money off the ball. He personally got you. He was like, I think we're going to hit you. His returns. I think we're going to get under. We're going to hit the under.

He texted you and lose this game. I'm like, what are you thinking, man? You guys going to cover or what? He had a good streak of a few games in a row. Running back a punt is so exciting. Now I watch it like a horrified parent where i'm just like get out of bounds please go go go don't hurt yourself don't hurt yourself don't hurt yourself yeah uh finally what is a myth what's something people think is true you know well this is crazy because i wrote

this down before i knew what we were going to talk about today i have two again but one of them i couldn't debunk and that is that i think my nails are growing faster now. Wait, why? What's going on? I don't know. I don't remember having to trim them this often, but maybe it's because I used to be able to go outside. Do you think it's a time marker?

I think they're growing. I'm having to trim them, I feel like, multiple times hmm and that's that's too many yeah but i don't know and i tried to look it up and there's mixed results so i couldn't debunk it like meg and family guy when that was her power or just her legs or her nails just got super long for a second it's just every time because i play guitar and you notice quick when that and even because we all type so much you notice on your keyboard when they're longer because you're like am i worse at typing all of a sudden right a lot of weird fret buzz here yeah so i don't know that was the first i couldn't debunk that maybe if i know that there's definitely people smarter

than me that listen to this because uh that's everyone and so let me know if you guys grow faster as you get older the internet has mixed results i have a feeling i've had a similar thought i'm like damn my nails got fucking long all of a sudden yeah i think it's because it's like one of the few things is keep helping me keep track of time is my fingernail length like i've lost every other marker like right you know pumpkin spice latte season happened five days early sure the nba finals just ended you know there's a i don't know what's going on 2 p.m on a monday for their thursday night game yeah it's like i don't know so i've like those normal things like

the only that and my allergies are the only thing that have been consistent and i think because i've lost those other things i forget like how much linear time has passed i'm like you know i feel like uma thurman and kill bill when she come out the coma and she's like looking at her hands. She's like four years or whatever that line is. But yeah, that's interesting. Cause like when,

when you, I just remember when I used to, uh, park in the same parking lot every day, like at a certain point, it just, they all started blending together because like, I just couldn't distinguish that morning from every other morning that looked

and felt exactly the same. And I just wonder if like a similar thing where we're just like kind of, um, you know, our brain is actually far more, uh, nerves going from our brain to our eyes than vice versa. Like our brain fills in a lot of the stuff that it already knows is there,

and your eyes are only taking in a very small portion of it. And I think that's just generally true with our world. Whenever there's something that our brain is like, okay, this is going to be the same every time, it just starts filling that in and memory-holing it. Yeah, it's like cookies on the internet yeah exactly your brain is cooking the world around you because we're in a very routine it is like that uh when you see those paragraphs where every word is misspelled except but the first and last and then but you can read them properly right it's doing all the the fill-in work for you where you just understand how everything's supposed to be exactly come on brain you got to get better and work harder uh

if there's anything to tell my brain um the other thing i wrote down to debunk is uh you and i like i said this i didn't know we were going to talk about today you'll be okay if you delete facebook uh you're not going to lose connections with your friends. You're not going to miss. It's okay. You can keep in touch with people without it now. I know that a lot of people hang on because they're like, this is how I keep in touch with what my cousins or I deleted it. I just text people sometimes and say, what's up? Hope all is well. That's like high school friends or things like that you can kind of just put in a little bit different work and it's not like replacing hey

we're all having a dialogue about a a funny photo or something but yeah it's okay it's always like oh shit are the star quarterback of my high school is like uh just a racist troll now i think it's the concussions because you know you remember back then like there were no protocols just a racist troll now. Uh-oh. I do think people hang on to it just for these things. I think it's the concussions. Because, you know, you remember back then? Like, there were no protocols.

And I remember his helmet was a lot lighter than everyone else because he was more of a, you know, this kind of scrambling quarterback. And I remember that one game against Bishop Amat.

It was pretty fucked up. And then he still got back in. I don't know. Maybe that's what it is. I'm like, maybe he's just racist. I don't know. Maybe he's just been racist the whole time maybe that's just a maybe he he said he wanted a lighter helmet because white people's brains were bigger and you need to look

it up like maybe maybe that was the sign he was racist and not the getting hit by the football i yeah i just think i have lost nothing i have i have I have missed out on nothing because I deleted it. I don't know. I have a Facebook fan page that I don't know how to maintain without having Facebook, but I don't really know what to do. I know that some people hang on because they're like, well, yeah, because it is really at its inception. It was a really good way to rate women on their hotness. at its inception, it was a really good way to rate women on their hotness. And then the second thing it was good at was you could keep in,

it kind of, you don't need a high school reunion anymore. Right. And it's like, well, I don't think we're meant to be this in touch with this many people and have no intimate relationships with any friends anymore. Like it's, I don't, I'm not supposed to have a 1% tab with the thousand people. To have the most annoying thing that those 1,000 people do every day just bubble up to the top of your consciousness to make you angry. So if you're thinking about it, here's what I can say if you're listening.

You're like, well, I don't like what it's doing. Log out and delete the apps for a little bit and see how often you just open a browser and type F-A-B. It makes you feel crazy. When I logged out and deleted the thing, I would just open Chrome and type FAB or it's really, it makes you feel crazy. When I logged out and deleted the thing, I would just open Chrome and type FAC. And then I'm like, oh no, like my muscle. And then you'll slowly stop doing that and you'll slowly get better. It feels like I'm like getting rid of like a sugar addiction or something. Yeah. Yeah. I think to your point though, by texting somebody, I mean, like just being on

Facebook, I think people massively like overrate or underrate how passive it actually is like you may think well how do i keep up it's like but are you interacting you might just be scrolling oh that's what they're doing oh that's what they're doing but it's not you're not connecting and i think even to your point by even texting someone like hey what's up you good yeah that's where you're gonna get that little bit do you know what I mean? Where it's like a one-way connection we all have with each other. Yeah.

And then I hated who I was going in and being, like, my muscle memory is to go to these things. Right. And I'm like, where did I get to where this is a thing I check off a hundred times a day? Because of Zuckerberg, bro. Yeah. They had it all planned out. Cause Zuckerberg, bro. Yeah. They had it all planned out. You can do without it. I'm,

I know people who say, and I, I, I, who, you know, I need it for this. I need it for this.

I use it for this. You don't, you can figure it out. I'm now zoom bombing for my personal interaction, uh, on a daily basis. Just random numbers. Yeah.

Random login numbers, family reunions, corporate meetings, AA meetings. What you do is you just crawl, you just look on Google and you just search for people who are publicly posting Zoom meeting

IDs and I just go in, video off, and I just like to be a fly on the wall. Oh, I had a Zoom stand-up show get bombed by, and this is what I miss live stand-up so much because at least hecklers had to have gumption when it was face-to-face. Now they bomb a Zoom meeting and these kids are so not good at being racist. They're so, they pulled up, they took the, they bombed the meeting, they stole the screen share and they went to the KKK's Wikipedia page. And I'm like, what are you doing?

The page says they're bad. I don't know what you're trying to get across. That'll show them. What a lazy racist. At least if you were heckling me in person, you had to call me a slur while I looked at you. Do you know what I mean? Right, right. There's a little more risk involved.

This podcast is an intergenerational conversation

between Latinas from Gen X to Gen Z. We're covering everything from body image to representation in film and television. We even interview iconic Latinas like Puerto Rican actress Ana Ortiz. I felt in control of my own physical body and my own self. I was on birth control. I had sort of had my first sexual experience. If you're in your señora era or know someone who is, then this is the show for

We're so excited for you to hear our brand new podcast senora sex ed listen to senora sex ed on the iheart radio app apple podcast or wherever you get your podcast and we're back so trump has tried to keep spirits up you know the polls looking bleak uh as we talked about on yesterday's episode but he you know in other news that they're spinning out to the media as much as possible uh he thinks they had their best day uh that any presidential election has had so far this election just you know crushing that seems rooted in facts yeah i think it was like rooted in the dance moves, uh, where his feet are rooted to the stage.

I mean, the things, the point of this article, he says, he's telling his staffers because right now a lot of the staffers are not feeling it. They're like, dude,

especially the people who have been working on other like legit campaigns where, you know, the candidate like does things like has a message and stays on it and isn't just like screaming wild racist shit out loud um you know the morale is super fucking low and all of them are looking at like dude we're so up against it he's not doing anything to change the number so this led him to be like saying we're gonna win i wouldn't have told you that maybe two or three weeks ago if we we had the election today, I think we'd win. Today's the best single day that I've felt

on either campaign. I don't know what that even means. Is that because your meds are hitting right? Or like, well, what does that mean? The day after I got steroids from doctors is one of the best days I've ever felt on either campaign. Or to my life in general and then he's sort of gone on to you know when people are raising issues about like you know just getting killed in the messaging and stuff you say blaming the press for reporting stories about him which are objectively negative because he is a racist piece of shit that can't stay on message so yeah the stories are going to be about how what his racism is or being anti-science i think most recently he was warning people that uh at this rally in what is it carson county i want

to say uh in in nevada in carson county nevada he was telling people he's like look if you if joe biden's elected he'll listen to the scientists if i love that's his warning to people is he'll listen to accepted science now. So his words to the public- Did he say that specifically? Those were the words? Yes. In the thing, he goes, the way that he's like, you don't know how the future of this virus is looking. He's going to want to lock down. He's talking about Joe Biden. Then he says, he'll listen to the scientists. And then he said, if I listen to this, if I listen totally to the sciences, we would right now have a country that would be in a massive depression. Instead, we're like a rocket ship. Take a look at the numbers.

The numbers are actually. I didn't specify which rocket ship. I think there's a school teacher on board. Oh, God. Jesus Christ. Oh, yeah. Take off. We had a challenge and we faced it.

We're like a challenger taking... This has always blown me away that that's a Dodge car. Come on. Okay. Yeah. The actual numbers show that we're economically, you know, in a recession, bordering on depression. And China, because they actually listened to their scientists and you know locked down and did all the things well and also like the authoritarian you know you you can lock shit

down a little bit right okay so new zealand when you control all the locks right yeah that does help but they had any economic recovery already like the countries that listened to scientists. New Zealand is holding rugby matches with 85,000 people sitting next to each other. That's like the new drug. It's just going to be to put an Oculus headset on and pretend you're New Zealand at a rugby game. Oh man, I saw the clips

and I don't know how I got mad at everyone at the same time. Every single person in the world. I was upset at them. Stupid, charming accents. Jacinda's on her way to smashing the election. I was reading another thing about how their parliament

is the most diverse, especially from an LGBTQIA standpoint of any other country in the world. You look at this like, wow, diversity of opinions, thoughts, all of this it's crazy when the government is representative of the people who live under that government the people are safer um i'm not look i'm not a scientist you don't listen to me unless biden wins

the other thing i was gonna say is like the messaging thing is even starting to get to like the fox and friends set steve ducey he had to literally because he knows the president watching he had to stop short of telling the president yo shut the fuck up about hunter biden um to just essentially set it up very softly so you gotta figure the president's gonna try try to bring up Hunter Biden in some way. Has to. And the base loves to hear that stuff. But what the consultants are telling the president is in the race to the final 15 days, do as much about the economy as you possibly can. And essentially the best message is President Trump built a great economy.

Then COVID screwed things up. And President Trump is better at rebuilding than Joe Bideniden that's the message they would like to see got it so like i said we just talked about how this man is at a rally in nevada as we speak saying joe biden will listen to the scientists that's not the message the people who you paid millions of fucking dollars to to attest all this messaging, they're telling you the narrative you need to sell is the one Steve Doocy even knows like, look, this is the only way that we can get this message through to him? Do you think like it's that concerted? Do you think Fox News just knows that they are like the only people that it has to be? So it must be shorthand at this point. Once you got a year into this thing and there are all these reports about how he's just fucking has his eyes glued to fox that you're like yeah this is how you talk to him and i'd

imagine just like us who are watching this constantly just if we were in the similar position as problem solvers like okay man i guess we need somebody to go on fox news and scream it at the president through the fucking show that he watches because he's not listening to us whatever who gives it's like you hear those stories about how marlon brando quit memorizing scripts and they would have to leave lines tucked around the set that he would just read as they go that's what this feels like is happening where he's like in the middle they've said action and he's in the middle you just please just put one on there to say stop making fun of the most sympathetic uh uh person involved in either campaign like

please put something in there that says bring up anything i've done i mean the the sigh that doocy had before he got into that like 20 or 25 second talk where he he feels like he's exhausted at his job i have no sympathy for him but he feels like he is like well here i go again doing the thing do you know what i mean and I imagine they get in a meeting. I could see them have their size, their bitmojis are having in this Republican think tank Fox News group chat are fast. Speaking of no sympathy for him, I just want to talk about the continuing Eurostep away from the president by uh euro stepping yep a number of senators and just uh gop politicians who are trying to win every step is going to be a euro step we're stepping just like euros um you don't want that john cornyn uh the texas senator who finds himself

all of the sudden in a shockingly close race is distancing himself and saying things that are like pretty sober for a Republican, like pretty circumspect. But with enough misogyny that it still sounds like something a Republican would say. Yes, of course, of course. Make no mistake. There is a problematic, toxic masculinity at the core of all of this. He said, maybe he described his relationship with Trump as maybe like a lot of women who get married and think they're going to change their spouse. And that doesn't usually work out very well. out very well i think what we found is that we're not going to change president trump he is who he is either love him or hate him and there's not much in between what i tried to do is not get

into public confrontations and fights with him because as i've observed those usually don't go too well uh but when i've had a difference of opinion i'd bring it up privately. So basically, I knew he was wrong. I just didn't say it because he gets mad and is mean, which is the surest sign that your candidate is winning the election is when people are being like, look, I knew he was an asshole, you guys. Oh, yeah, I was just doing that to fuck with y'all. Oh, you thought I was serious? Nah, nah, I knew he was trash the whole time. See, to fuck with y'all oh you thought i was serious nah nah i knew

he was trashed the whole time i believe him when he says when i do it privately it's more effective because trump is such a lying gaslighting moment to moment people pleaser every time he meets with someone one-on-one he gives them everything they want every time he meets with someone one-on-one they come out like he meets with kanye he comes out and he's like we did everything he meets with kim kardashian he's like i released everyone she said to he does his the immediacy of what he needs to feel that's why he does these rallies is because it's the only thing where he gets this immediacy right if you get him one-on-one and you're like make texas into nine states he probably would go do it like he's so he doesn't know anything right and so he just is so

reactive every he he does whatever anyone at that moment is that's why he listened to fox news and does that immediately i mean that's ultimately why he's bad at being president right is because in addition to the racism and all of uh horrifying rightward movement of the ideology of the GOP, he's also just for a national catastrophe like COVID-19, the thing that they said at the outset is you need somebody who is steady, who is always like, this is what we're doing. This is what we're doing. This is the game plan. These are the realities we're is always like this is what we're doing this is what we're doing this is the game plan these are the realities we're dealing with this is what we're

doing and he is the opposite of that um yeah kind of like what you're saying about how he likes to please everyone he's like mora and pen 15 season two we're just like what y'all want y'all want to come over i'll give you everything my mom's a cunt fuck you mom i will also lie about every single thing so you like me it's like oh i don't think he's thought two things ahead i think every time we thought he was or i i just think if everything is moment to moment what is best for me in this exact moment this exact second sometimes the best thing for him in that moment is to put a rallying cry out to a hate group sometimes the best thing for him in that moment is to put a rallying cry out to a hate group sometimes the best thing for him in that moment is to release someone from jail because it'll look good on twitter everything to

him is like this second to this i think he has no foresight i think he's easily manipulated it's like anytime anyone attributes any intelligence to anything he's doing i think it's someone around him and i i give him no credit yeah i think it's pure instincts and just people trying to engineer those instincts yeah it's just that yeah it's just that shit where like some of his ideas are so bad when they worked out people just mistook that for him being very complex and you're like no that's just the probabilities are just in his favor you can you can wing it as you go and get by on confidence for for i would say it looks like 3.85 years yeah the one thing in an improv group yeah right not i think i hadn't fully heard a republican

say before and maybe they've been saying this and i just haven't been paying attention but he said in this call with supporters i applaud him for standing up to china but frankly this idea that china is paying the price and we're not paying the price here at home is just not true so that's like i've heard that be cited as like a real strength of his on like centrists and uh right wing people and so it's good to well i think all it was is that like oh he was willing to fuck up the economy to like right start this trade war and that's a definitely a flex but yeah cut to so many people especially in the manufacturing sector who were promised the revival of manufacturing jobs in the 2016 election are always like what the fuck is this like this guy asshole really just lied to us

all this to say is all these people including ben sass who i know you spoke about earlier just trying to act like he fucking knew and he's like this guy's like he's flirts with white supremacy look all you republicans nice fucking try we caught all y'all on camera throating the fucking boot so it's the the time will come for most of you to be you've thrown out or voted out i mean mean, depending on what district you're in. You may be in a district so red it will make the devil jealous. But for everybody else, you'd hope that these things are just going to be like, just hang over them this entire time.

Because you know they know that they're like, I don't know, that was kind of a bad look for me. That was a new level of folksiness, by the way, from you, Miles. So red that it'll make're like i don't know that was kind of a bad look for me that was a new level of folksiness by the way from you miles so red that'll make the devil jealous that's because he's talking about a guy from nebraska so he just immediately went full i hear everything that you're saying and so desperately hope it's true and so desperately hope that everyone is not just so racist that they don't care i hope that every farmer isn't just so hateful that they actually realize this guy doesn't care about you.

But I still am worried it won't. I am just worried that someone will lose the popular vote by seven and a half million votes when in an election because every district is going to be so red the devil is jealous when they're all drawn in crazy, bizarre swirl shapes throughout every single state. Yeah. So crazy and swirly it makes LSD

jealous. Is that right? There you go. I like that. I guess farmers don't really reference LSD that much. They love it. Not these days. You hate to see it. Nate Silver did a thing. I'm going to go ahead and out myself as Nate Silver Boy. But I don't know.

Silver Boy. Silver Boy. Silver Boy. Soon it will be election day in the city. All right. I could have gone without taking it all the way. But, you know. You know, I've had to indulge a bit uh-huh uh so i i still i just think

he has a better handle on the race uh if we are gonna look at polls like he recognizes the limitations of polls talks about the limitations of polls uh all the time um the thing he's saying is that trump still has a chance if what happened what trump was suggesting happened and the election was held today he would have a 1 in 20 shot of winning based on existing polls because he's behind by so much silver thinks that things are going to tighten but 1 in 20 is still a high chance when you're talking in terms of like an asteroid hitting our country which i think is what we would be dealing with i wish we would treat it like what if covid's death rate was one in 20 right because it's one it's one in 200 and yeah it is

still so serious it is the most serious thing that has happened to the world in a while. And this is, I hope Nate Silver's right that it's only one, but it's 1 in 20 scary. Yeah. And then, I mean, based on what has happened in past elections, he thinks it's going to tighten to 1 in 10, which is what they have it at right now, which, you know, that's incredibly scary. they have it at right now, which that's incredibly scary. But the points that he was making that are good to just keep in mind as we're all hyperventilating over the last two weeks, people overestimate the October surprise importance and underestimate how consistent people are in their values. COVID is what has mattered to voters and continues to matter to

them. Polls have been showing that all year. The October surprise with Comey, talking about reopening the investigation into Clinton, mattered in 2016 because Clinton was uniquely unpopular. There was a large portion of undecided voters when that happened. And so it just swung a bunch of them from Clinton to Trump. There aren't a large portion of undecided voters. Imagine

right now, and you're like, I don't know. How? Who are you? Who is the person who, I don't mean to be good, who's the person who's at home like i gotta hear a little more from see how this last debate goes i'm loving joe jorgensen and so if either these other guys can have a good zoom debate right maybe i'll swing um polls generally don't change that much in the last two weeks on average, like one to two percentage points that would keep things at around one in 10. If they move in Trump's direction or like one in 20,

if they move in Biden's direction. The one thing I think he's leaving out is just that we have a debate that is only 12 days before the election, which is unprecedentedly close. Yeah. They're already bashing the, you know, I think it's Kristen Welker, who's

moderating and the topics came out. They're like, what's he going to do? He's getting killed out here. Is this going to be a hit job? I've always been blown away when... He's going to talk about racial issues? When the Trump campaign is like, oh, Biden knew what they were going to talk about.

Dog, we all knew what they were going to talk about. It's the shit that they're talking about every day. You're the president. He had the questions ahead of time. It's going to be about the stuff that's happening. It's going to be about all the stuff. I can tell you what the stuff is going to be. Don't you remember Home Alone 2?

Wasn't that great? Went in the Plaza Hotel, which I own, by the way. And then you remember Rob Schneider, he got tipped with a piece of fruit stripe gum. He wasn't very happy about that. He would always make the gesture with his hand for a tip. It a tie-in with fruit stripe gum yes my memory is very good that would probably impress more people if you called that scene out i would be impressed if you remembered all of that yeah i would be like you know what i'm undecided now i think he would

describe it more as you know they took that scene i was in and expanded it into a whole movie with that kid. Right. They love that so much. They wrote a whole movie around it. Yeah. All right, guys, let's take one more break and we'll be right back. I've been thinking about you. I want you back in my life.

It's too late for that. I have a proposal for you. Come up here and in my life. It's too late for that. I have a proposal for you. Come up here and document my project. All you need to do is record everything like you always do. One session. 24 hours. BPM 110. 120.

She's terrified. Should we wake her up? 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?

We're so excited for you to hear our brand new podcast, Señora Sex Ed. Listen to Señora Sex Ed on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. And we're back. And let's talk about this variety piece on Chris Pratt, who we have talked before about Chris Pratt and how he's always talking about hunting and Jesus and, you know, all those. Always winking at the GOP, not going and letting people know he might be GOP.

Whatever, you know, it's fine. He'd just be like James Woods. I mean, there's more pictures of him fishing than a dude's hinge profile. You know what I mean? Everything is him holding up a fish, which is fine. I like outdoor stuff. I grew up on a lake. I like fishing. I don't even mind

hunting under the circumstances of it being used for population control. I like freaking eating deer meat and stuff. but this guy yeah this this seems to be a thing like a it people people knew well yeah when people have always speculated you know he's with uh what arnold schwarzenegger's daughter and like also you know like okay goes the hill song a lot of pieces there to be like this he might be a conservative christian again no problem with that. But it's,

I think the thing that a lot of people are pointing to with this article is that it wasn't necessarily about him. It's just the fact that he's not talked about it in this article. So there's a fundraiser going on for the Biden-Harris campaign called Voters Assemble, which is essentially featuring a bunch of Avengers cast members, Don Cheadle, Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Paul Rudd, Mark Ruffalo, Zoe Saldana. And they're going to join Kamala Harris and some other thing. They're just basically using their celebrity

to generate a ton of funds for the campaign. And everyone was like, yo, where the fuck is Andy from Parks and Rec? Where's Star Dork or whatever the fuck his character is called? Why isn't he in the mix? Jesus, Miles. What's that?

That's who he is. That's his name. Oh, okay. So, yeah, mind your P's and Q's. Literally. They're like, why is he in there? I mean, granted, there are a few other people who are in that film that aren't in this list. But I think it only just further fanned the flames where people like, I think he should just be like, yo, dude, I'm a conservative. You know, me and Vince Vaughn hang out.

And that's that. But I think what makes it, I think what people don't like is that, like, if he truly holds these beliefs and he's not saying that because he knows it would be damaging. And he's still just doing this, trying to walk, have his cake and eat it too, so to speak. Just be out there with your values, man. Him being like this is a similar vibe to why I don't trust polls very much because people who are ashamed

of what they believe might lie to a pollster. I want to believe it all. Langston Kerman, very funny comedian, had a joke after the 2016 election where he said, the one thing we learned is that white people can keep a secret. He's like, you guys,

the whole time we're like, I'm with her. And then you got in there and you were like, you know what? I liked his hair the whole time. I'm with hair. So I mean, he definitely knows it's bad

he definitely knows it'd be bad for his Pratt business the Pratt Institute I like to call it he definitely knows that it wouldn't be good press if he was out here because you know who isn't a Marvel Avenger is James Woods or John Voight

although John Voight did find that treasure with his son um but it's he definitely knows it's bad for i wouldn't be surprised if disney had something about it in a contract but they're so powerful with that stuff and it's such a sorry i'm one episode into the boys and now i'm like this is how superheroes are controlled uh right but don't say you're a conservative it's bad for a brand i brand his he's very particular with his brand i feel like because i don't know you never hear him talking about anything he's he's similar to like the rock vibes with me where i'm like this is such a particular brand the only time i hear you talking about anything is like when you're

talking to a sick kid or doing something that a magazine would call a wholesome personal activity right right right right and even the rock was like yeah all right um i was so shocked that the rock put an endorsement out because i'm like but you know they might be able to you won't sell as many sweatproof headphones now yeah every celebrity is a company that a lot of people make a lot of money off of. It's not just his decision. It's his entire branding team's decision. Granted, it's his decision to listen to them, but his brand certainly seems to be a specific thing. Can you imagine? Pratt's always about to be on Twitter.

He's like, I'm sorry, guys, but all lives matter. And his rep's like, just get the fuck off there, man. Stop. Stop. But it's man. Stop. Stop. But it's true. Think about it. But how depressing would the immediate spike in Chris Pratt merchandise sales be? That would then be curbed by a star,

star Lord dying in an off camera manner. Just like, yeah, not even just like he gets like a text, like just a thing. Like you just see a text graphic on screen just explain it and star lord tragically just was lost in the vacuum of space disney plus animated guardians of the galaxy series that is canon in the mcu subscribe now but i mean he's

he's i think engaged to schwarzenegger's daughter who knows if he has conservative political aspirations like Schwarzenegger but even Arnold is out here right we at least have to fix this thing before we get back to having a dialogue about what a party is

Arnold Schwarzenegger is out here spending his own money to open more polling places I wonder maybe we'll find out Chris Pratt Arnold Schwarzenegger is out here spending his own money to open more polling places. I wonder, maybe we'll find out Chris Pratt was doing that. And he's like, you guys are sick. Look what you did. Look at it.

You embarrassed yourselves just because I didn't say something out loud. Really look at your own hearts, please. But also Magna. I do want to talk real quick about Facebook changing their algorithm in 2017 to choke traffic to sites that they viewed as left-leaning and deliver traffic back to the daily wire. They had an algorithm update where their editorial staff thought that it was going to penalize the daily wire too much. And so they made specific changes to the algorithm to drive traffic away from what they viewed as left-leaning sites like Mother Jones, sites that have a weird reporting bias where they actually report facts. Pro publica. Right, pro publica, you know, leftist shit. Videos of the president's exact words being said by him.

It's just, it's enough to make me sick. But I just, I think this is a good example of, you know, we finally saw Facebook block QAnon shit and it seems like they are totally just trying to read the direction of the wind and figure out like you know yeah and paint with all the colors of the wind but I mean yeah it's just may they by having somebody who's this in charge of, in control of the media ecosystem of America, it just makes it like 200% less tethered to reality and more able to spin off into the fever dream come true that we've all been living through for the past i don't know what zuckerberg needs his site to be before he feels like that girl wasn't personally insulting him at that dinner once well that's why i think we need that yeah it just all feels like a weird spite thing that he's doing he knows it's wrong he

knows what it's doing and he just besides his like congressional appearance a couple years back which was bananas he he it's so obvious it's what how much money do you need is he jealous that he's not the richest man in the world and that's why he does this almost definitely maybe just yeah they need to force these people into like ayahuasca like spiritual you know transcendental introspection journeys just to see just to see if it'll knock a couple screws loose. I wonder if he would look into himself and be like, oh, you're right, I never got over that thing. Would he or would it be like the finale of Mad Men

when he would come up with an even better idea to advertise stuff at us? I mean, The New Yorker did a profile of the place that that Mad Men scene is based on. It's an actual spiritual retreat where people go do LSD, hang out together. It's like you can only get in there if you have Oprah's net worth. It's all just these tech billionaires and leaders, and they have these retreats and shit. And it's been co-opted by neoliberal,

like the same way that the tech industry took what was the hippie movement and drug use and free thinking and turned it into a massive, massive money-making machine. Yeah, I think if you're a capitalist selfish monster all that opening up your mind is going to do is further that it's not it's not like you're just being trapped into being someone who

exploits the entire world into a hundred billion dollars I mean or if we look at it as like in a way that gets an addiction to like of whether that's making more or proving yourself through this thing I don't know I don't know why I'm trying to fucking say Mark Zuckerberg. They,

I mean, they did a, uh, a retreat at that place. And like the takeaway was we need to make tech less addictive, but they didn't have buy-in from Facebook or any, any of the, I think they had buy-in from Jack Dorsey,

but I'm sure that the takeaway was, uh, nothing that will affect their bottom line in any capacity and not that we're taking too much. Right. Absolutely. Should we talk horror movies real quick? Uh,

yeah, I'm curious about this study. Yeah. So scientists, uh, hooked 50 Joe Biden will listen to everyone. I'm sorry to interrupt you, Jack, but Joe Biden will listen to scientists. I'm sorry to interrupt you, Jack, but Joe Biden will listen to scientists. I'm sorry.

So beware, guys. But he will not listen to activists when it comes to racial justice and restorative justice in this country. Just keep that in mind. So these scientists hooked 50 people up to, so it's not a huge sample size, but I do think it's interesting,

to heart rate monitors, and they watched the 50 highest rated horror movies on IMDb, like based on the fan ratings. And The Exorcist and other classics didn't perform that well. It was like a lot of, it's like Sinister and Insidious were number one and two. Whoa. Yeah, it's like a lot of like sinister and insidious were number one and two whoa yeah it's like those like 2012 like the those movies from the last like 10 years but uh i think that horror has had a nice little rejuvenating decade though yeah yeah that's what i was saying like it seems like i mean this

seems pretty like you they they have all the stats here and it's kind of interesting like how high the heart rates got on average and all that stuff and like yeah i i agree like that there's kind of an unfake ability about that like that's just like this is how scared people were um and it's a lot of that it's's like critically maligned, but audiences beloved, like James Wan has a bunch of movies, like The Conjuring, The Conjuring 2. I think he did, what else? The Visit.

The Con and The Juring. The Con, The Juring, all of those. That was the working title for the Chicago 7 movie was The Jury Con. I like this list. There's a lot of... Give me... So they have these things ranked on average heart rate, difference, and average heart

rate, the highest spike, and then what the difference is on there. Yeah. Give me a nice high average heart rate because I'm not a big jump scare guy, but give me a nice long tension. Yeah. Give me a nice... Get my blood pressure fucked up like the ones that are uh more dread based are like hereditary that it doesn't have a high spike but it's in the top four uh it

follows is number six and it doesn't really have a high uh high spike at all it actually those are see i'm looking at hereditary and the, which might be my two favorite horror movies, and I feel validated. Yeah. I still, man, Hereditary's still ugh. Right. Have you seen that thing, though?

What is it? There are memes being done with, what's her name in Hereditary? The actress? The whole shit is based on how fuck tony collette like memes of her eating like when it's like when i'm biting a hot ass slice of pizza no yeah it's pretty great because that face is and i mean i've just letting the taking a bite of pizza and then immediately letting it drop out of your mouth

is such a specific experience. All right. Well, guess what, guys? We're not going to get to Space Jam 2. You're going to have to tune in tomorrow for that. But it comes out tonight. It does come out tonight, unfortunately.

Kyle, it's been great having you as always, man. Yeah, thank you for having me. Where can people find you and follow you? I'm kind of Kyle Ayers across most of the things, so you can find me on there, all that sort of stuff. And I had an album come out last Friday, so like four or five days ago. You can check that out.

It's called Happiness. It was recorded pre-pandemic, so there is an audience, which is a group of people gathered closely together to experience something simultaneously very fun and yeah you can get that wherever you listen to stuff and is there a tweet or some of the work of social media you've been enjoying uh yeah i actually bookmarked this tweet from mark agee call that says california state ballot initiatives are worded like vote no if you don't not want thing to do not happen or will. I was just looking at those last night.

And if you fuck it up, you legalize babies working for Instacart. And it's because I just filled out my ballot. I'm worried about my signature matching, so I'm going to go vote in person. But I filled out my ballot and some of the propositions

make you feel you're just like i had 22 is so fucking cynical the way they're trying to present that to 22 in the media is so cynical if you yeah ballot you're like what are these ads possibly i don't mean to be pulling up a ballot and reading things but if you read it on the ballot you're like what are these ads saying because it's honest it's the only 22 says transportation and delivery companies are exempted from providing employee benefits to drivers and i'm like no but the commercials had a woman looking me dead in my i got a text from someone being like hi i'm from uber please don't take my job by voting for my benefits right it's like oh and that's how all these things are there There's another one for dialysis centers,

uh, to have their shit together. And the companies like the coalition of concerned dialysis centers are parading. You'll be like, they'll kill me if you vote for this. And you're like, okay,

you know what? Shame on y'all for even messaging like that. Cause that's not the case. You will make less money and you have to do the right thing by not taking advantage of people. That's what both of these folks... Anyway. It feels like every one of these propositions is funded by lawyers from Better Call Saul,

where it's just these hilariously manipulated, just under the legal limit of how they can position something. 100%. But they are. It is a weird catch-22 for the people because it is uh these companies being like well we're not going to spend the money to do the right thing so yeah you're like you are essentially voting to put people out of work or like you know and it's just like well but you just need to do the fucking right thing the company could just make a little bit less than infinity dollars a day and everything would be fine. But these are the, like, because we're seeing like legislation against this, like, you know, not even that it's against it, but just trying to correct this predatory form of capitalism.

Yeah. And yeah, like it's like at every level. I mean, every conversation we're having throughout any industry is always about, can you make a little less fucking money so the rest of us can live? Do you make a little less money so people can afford medications or health care? Do you have to? Like early Internet days, there was a guy who made a website called I will kill my rabbit dot com or something like that. And he was basically like, if you don't if I don't make ten ten thousand dollars on PayPal in a week, I'm going to cook my rabbit. And he put a picture of his bunny over a boiling pot of water, and then it made the money.

And that's what this all feels like to me. You could just not kill the rabbit. No, no, no. But it's over the boiling pot of water. Yeah, that would be unprofitable to not kill the rabbit. Yeah, I'm not saying that you shouldn't vote against these companies or corporations. I'm just saying they are bastards.

And you should vote against them. But you absolutely should vote against them. Miles, where can people find you? What's a tweet you've been enjoying? Twitter, Instagram, at Miles of Grey, 420 Day Fiance, the other podcast, if you want to talk 90 Day Fiance with me and Sophia Alexandra,
