Starting point is 00:04:39 Jesus Christ. Talking about, I've just seen too many injuries to children from vaccine. I've seen so many. It's just heartbreaking.

Starting point is 00:10:25 to get a root canal and the endodontist told me that he didn't have time to give me novocaine so he did it without novocaine it was sheer torture and i've been terrified of dentists ever since just curious how do you feel about going to the dentist huh the fuck kind of dentist did you go to say hey i don't i don't have time for this that did you oh shit you did you go groupon endodontist right and they're they're like honestly like yeah we don't have time to fucking figure this out um yeah i i i do not know uh like their responses are kind of hilarious around this of just people talking about how like over medicated they've been at a dentist. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:06 Um, but also like it, damn the fucking, the Novocaine though. That's, I remember I, one time I got it and they hit my, like my lingual nerve.

So that was an early sign that I was cool. Yeah. I'm also just, I'm just a bit dubious of this tale.
Starting point is 00:11:59 But I know that there are all kinds of dental and medical procedures that don't happen the way they should but part of me that feels like just such a wild proposition like bro you're about to fucking dig out like the canals of my teeth and get like hell no if you need a root canal on your way to

People like Matt Bomer. Thank you for that introduction. I'm going to slip you a couple 20s under the table for that. Emma Roberts. When it came into my email inbox, I was like, okay, I know I'm going to love this so much
Starting point is 00:14:32 that I don't even want to read it, because if I can't be in it, I'm going to be bummed. And Colin Jost. You know, your wife was the first guest in Table for Two.

Starting point is 00:15:37 I've really unraveled a lot, which is part of what this book is about. And I really feel so content, which is a word that used to scare the crap out of me. And I love that word now. Listen to The Bright Side from Hello Sunshine on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Starting point is 00:16:04 Some people won't give you the real talk on drugs, but it's time we know the facts. Fentanyl is often laced into illicit drugs and used to make fake versions of prescription pills. You can't see it, taste it, or smell it. Suppliers mix fentanyl into their products because it's potent and cheap, and the dealer might not even know. Keep yourself and others safe by knowing the real deal on fentanyl. And we're back. And there's a new iOS update. I always like to try and browse through the features, make sure I'm not missing anything cool.
Starting point is 00:16:54 Apparently we got better FaceTime experience. So they've actually changed it. So the voice comes from the position that the person is on your screen. Wait, what do you mean? So let's say you have like a brady bunch worth of people right facetime and the person in the upper right hand corner of your screen speaks their voice will come from that part of your screen um so that thank god i was just saying i that that's all we need to end world hunger is for the fucking voice to come out of the part of the screen great so they did that that's a fucking huge burden off my shoulders um they are going to oh and also people from android or windows
Starting point is 00:17:31 devices can join facetime calls from a web browser they can read your photos a little more unnerving than the last one they can like basically read the any text that's in your photos, which I do tend to like photograph any documents that I am spying on, you know, when I'm like in inside the building that I just broke into and doing corporate espionage. Yeah. When you were at over at DOJ a couple of years ago. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:00 So it's, it does make it easier to, I do like this feature. It's also just like damn they're getting a little that seems like some oh here okay here we go scumbag student miles just had a thought what you do is you you take a picture near your teacher's desk uh and sometimes like the answer key is out there but you make it look like you were just taking a picture of someone by the desk but with this technology you can zoom in and enhance and be like because you're saying it can actually begin to decipher text that just appears in any
Starting point is 00:18:29 form in the photo right i don't i don't i think it's just like it so you can search for a thing that has text i don't think it's like super uh i don't think it's giving us the ability to just shout enhance at our phone like we're on a csi movie uh i'm out i'm out i'm out sorry sharks i'm out i'm a griddle is trending the griddles i believe yeah that's how they're supposed to be the mcgriddles yes greg miller at game over greg you just asked that twitter just saying you got to order one it's egg mcmuffin or McGriddle, and it's neck and neck. 49.3% to 50.7%. I don't know. It makes sense on some level because I know people who were thoroughly,
Starting point is 00:19:12 their minds were blown when the McGriddle came out, and they've never looked back. I loved it for a hot minute. And then just like the amount of sugar, I was just kind of like, nah, I'm going to keep it more in the savory zone. So I'm more of an Ed McMuffin. You know what I mean? Ed McMahon, you know, kind of doing nah i'm gonna keep it more in the savory zone so i'm a more of a mcmuff ed mcmuffin you know what i mean ed mcmahon you know kind of doing my thing do you wish your breakfast would make you hung over try the mcgriddle yeah that's what it feels like i did a sugar headache exact
Starting point is 00:19:36 same boat as you loved it at first and then realized that it was the thing that was making me feel like shit for the next three days after i ate it so keep it simple plus i started making them at home you know what i mean you know with a pancake you know like a mcmuffin you know i get like if i have english muffins or something and i start i have like a coffee mug that's about the same diameter as the muffin and then you know i'm i would just beat the egg in there and microwave it so it comes out like a just nice disc and that's like a quick breakfast sandow from your boy i told you about the round egg hack that uh you can do at mcdonald's where no matter what sandwich you order if you ask for a round egg they will like crack a fresh egg into that like little round thing and that that's like the one way to ensure that you have a fresh egg i keep using it and keep getting the answer yeah no that one comes with a round egg like shut up yeah we got another menu hacker asshole ordering again yeah yeah yeah round egg
Starting point is 00:20:40 i know wipe your ass with his like he's yeah he's never fucking had it okay yeah man we've got that for sure dude what no everybody back here in the kitchen's super impressed man yeah actually pull around so we can take your picture man you think that's really cool and finally cinema is trending uh not the fun kind no the kirsten. She's telling the White House she's opposed to the current prescription drug plan. What part? Also, y'all, go to opensecrets.org, okay? That's a great website where you can just look up who gets their money from who in D.C. And who's giving who money in D.C.?
Starting point is 00:21:22 And you'll see Sinema again. We've talked about the pharma darlings of the democratic party she's also uh has a has a decent contribution from that industry uh she also says she doesn't quote support an alternative pitch from the house dem centrist that would limit the number of drugs subject to medicare negotiation so yeah so what what is she proposing instead just saying fuck it you know what i mean like i'm not really here to have ideas i'm clearly just here to say no to progress but i i hope jokes on you you elected me as a democrat would you think i'm gonna do something
Starting point is 00:21:56 about it nope so we'll see i mean i don't know you if you're if you're gonna be a president you you think you can wrangle this kind of nonsense in because it's you know the whole fucking agenda uh that you tried to get into office with so it's wild to think mere years ago while this show was still on i was happy when she won like oh nice the democrats are gonna take over she and then you realize you're like oh wait they can be poisoned by corporate money because at the end of the day all that power rests in the corporations and the huge donor industries don't have that power if you're not going to get re-elected you know no and also you know that's just like i think i'm we need more people to really connect those dots instantly
Starting point is 00:22:42 because it's not there's no there's no policy argument here she's shilling for farm for big pharma that's all that the people on like we discussed who blocked it in the commerce committee i think energy and commerce committee shilling for pharma has nothing to do with policy it's the fact that this is how corporations manage their business which is to pay politicians to keep their interests at heart when votes like this come around so they can continue to, hey, what experience? Great shareholder value. And yeah, that's the only way they stay in power, too. So it's like a broken, broken system. It's not just because people are pieces of shit.
Starting point is 00:23:21 It's that if she wasn't accepting money from all these corporate sources then she wouldn't have enough money to get re-elected and then uh we'd be fucked and what's she gonna do go fundraise on her own that's for fucking leftists yeah to try and do it outside of that universe like it's that's the whole thing you get with lobbyists because they make it now who's's naive? They take that. They give you more time by packaging the donations for you and then tell you, OK, but now you're going to make nice with them, though. That's the thing. There are strings attached.
Starting point is 00:23:54 Attached. All right. That is going to do it for this afternoon's episode. We are back tomorrow with a whole ass episode of the show. Until then, be kind to each other. Be kind to yourselves. Get the vaccine. Don't do nothing about white supremacy. And we will talk to you all tomorrow.
