Hello, the internet, and welcome to this episode of I Have Every Zite to Be Here.
I have every right to be here.
Yeah.
Do you?
That is courtesy of the Super Toe.
And we couldn't really figure out.
Maybe it's from Yellowstone.
I have every right to be here.
Maybe it's just, I don't know. Maybe there's an obvious reference that I'm missing.
Yellowstone National Park?
From the TV show.
Everyone's favorite streaming show, Yellowstone.
The quote was like, I have every right to be here.
Every right.
Every right.
This is America.
And then it was attributed to Dan.
I was like, ah, Dan.
He's some of the most quotable lines.
All right.
I am Jack.
You are Miles. And here are some things that
are trending right now pfizer is trending they say uh their vaccine is safe for 5 to 11 year olds
uh yeah they just just they just do like a half a halfer you know i mean don't give them the full
dose that's what i'm saying it's like just hit them with a lighter dose is that what they're saying uh and it's shown yeah yeah it was i think
they're the like the the dose i think amount was going to be smaller or something like that but
over the two doors two two dose course two doors uh shout out to jack dorsey um yeah this so that it's safe well tolerated and showed robust neutralizing
antibody responses i'm in is this that's according to the uf so we're just waiting for the fda is
that what's going on or that is the fda saying yeah because pfizer did its own like pfizer
biontech did their thing they're taking their findings out of the fda and also the european
medicines agency to you know be like hey, yo, this is what we got.
Maybe get more people protected.
Those euros, man.
They say I'm going to hospital,
and then they say I'm taking medicines instead of medicine.
I mean, this on my next stand-up special.
What's the deal with?
Anyways, I am looking forward to feeling better about having at least one of my kids vaccinated
and not looking forward to the absolute hell that is going to be raised by anti-vaxxers.
Jesus Christ.
Talking about, I've just seen too many injuries to children from vaccine.
I've seen so many.
It's just heartbreaking.
And that's why I don't wash my hands and I only drink out of metal cans.
And I only drink raw water, which is dirty water from a lake that has dysentery.
If only they knew the meetings we've been in.
Emmys is trending because the Emmmys happened last night yeah talk on
tomorrow's episode about seth rogan's like stand-up bit that was actually just him being
like afraid for his life concern and there were some other trends other things that people were
talking about all the winners were white it seemed like which was not a great look mckayla cole okay she won for i may destroy
you i did not watch the show uh as you can tell there were maybe it was all the acting ones did
she win for writing yeah there you go yeah there's a yeah i'm just i i checked in just to see if uh
maya and anna won for pen 15 because i use all of their achievements as my own uh growing up with
them but you know hacks hacks got that prize and i think overall man just seemed like mayor of east
town was cleaning up so did uh ted lasso and but then they're i guess people i don't know people
fucking hate award shows and love them so i don't know which version which takes they really care about aside from i've my my interest in award shows has been rapidly declining the um the this is the first
award show in since the beginning of the pandemic that was not a historic low for for an award show
i guess it wasn't as bad as last year um which makes sense because i mean it's emmys and what the one thing we've all been doing
is watching tv and streaming so the uh two things that i noticed uh one was that the producer who
uh accepted the award for like best series um for the queen's gambit creepily uh said that the star put sexy back in chess uh brought you you brought the sexy back to chess
which cool timely reference first of all second of all she is a child in the vast majority of that
and you are a 65 year old man and yeah also just wildly diminishing her work in that show.
Also, obviously, out to
Dan O'Brien, fucking win another
Emmy and shit.
Daniel O'Brien, we get it.
I mean, he's like
another one. But also, congrats, bro.
That is amazing. Good for you.
Soren, looking at you. Yeah, dude.
Come on. Come with it.
Step your game up, bro.
Because Soren tweeted about it. He was he was like yeah well earned congrats to dob oh but yeah because he said because he said
if i'm winning another enemy because he certainly won't just tell you without it being a congratulations
to someone else right uh which feels very on brand for dan yeah yeah and oh the other thing
i don't even know if i want to bring this up, but somebody somebody was like, huh. So Jason Sudeikis's brand is now like nice guy. That nice because we'll see how that plays out.
So I don't know, that piqued my interest.
Coming this fall.
Yeah, coming this fall.
Jason.
He's just going to do like the running man
like he would do in the What's Up With That sketch on SNL.
Just puts on an Adidas track suit and he's like,
in the back like
oh we they're like love this show guys welcome to jason let's do it let's milly rock for a little
bit huh all right uh anyways i hope he's a nice person uh he's always seemed nice not one time i
worked with him when i was doing my old gig is i he he called out my sneakers when he came into the room
and i said oh yeah you got you got something on too and he's like he's like yeah these are okay
he's like he's like i really like your shoes i really like those and i just had some like kind of
very normal hirachis on but it's funny because then when i when i started talking like a sneaker
head he knew too so he's like oh and then he started talking a lot about shoes and i was like okay this guy's cool he's like all right actually i don't like
those but i just wanted to see if you're a sneakerhead yeah because those are trash dude
what's wrong come on let's face facts we're both sneakerheads here uh the i've always wanted
hirachis and never had them i've always wanted to just wear them barefoot because of the built-in
sock that was the promise of the hirachis like that it has a built-in sock i remember when that was like
announced and just being like i'll never wear socks again and they're like completely forgetting
how how much that would make my right they're like sure it's a built-in sock uh you may need a
built-in like smelling salts to revive yourself from the stink right jason's day is also very
nice to me uh the one time i met him on the set of the 10 uh the david wayne uh film uh the tent
he was there just for like his one day and he was uh really really nice to me a uh a lowly cracked editor um so that's cool well anyway open
invitations today cuz come on yeah uh nova cane novo cane is trending uh for the soul
yeah is this the frank ocean song no it's someone tweeted this tweet that again and it's just blown
up because of this person's story uh said quote when i was 21 i went
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.
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.
I have,
my tongue was like numb for like three weeks.
Oh really?
Yeah.
She was black.
Yeah.
Having a numb mouth is weird,
especially when they're like,
okay, now try not
to like bite half your tongue off now that you can't feel anything um yeah i'm like i'm no worry
although when i was a kid i used to do that shit hardcore i'd be like how much can i handle
are you biting your tongue i'm like no why is blood pouring out i do remember when i got my
wisdom teeth out i woke up don't remember this, but was told later that I asked the dentist if he would give me more drugs.
So that was an early sign that I was cool.
Yeah.
I'm also just, I'm just a bit dubious of this tale.
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
discovering you need a root canal
the pain can be fucking ridiculous
I'd be like yo just rip this motherfucker out like tie it to a fucking On your way to discovering you need a root canal, the pain can be fucking ridiculous.
I'd be like, yo, just rip this motherfucker out.
Tie it to a fucking doorknob and just slam the shit and pull it out.
I've never had to have major mouth shit.
I've been pretty lucky with my teeth.
Man, I had a root canal that failed like that i had the root canal done and
then that something they didn't do it right and they're like oh yeah this is rare like uh
it's a failed root canal a couple old guys talking about their teeth talking about their dental
health you know what i mean anyway folks come on down tell a drop by with your tale of dental damage.

Hey, I'm Bruce Bozzi.
On my podcast, Table for Two, we have unforgettable lunch after unforgettable lunch with the best guest you could possibly ask for.
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
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. It's come full circle.

Hey, fam, I'm Simone Boyce.
I'm Danielle Robay.
And we're the hosts of The Bright Side,
the daily podcast from Hello Sunshine
that is guaranteed to light up your day.
Every weekday, we bring you conversations
with the culture makers who inspire us.
Like our recent episode with dancer, actor,
host of Dancing with the Stars,
and now novelist, Julianne Hough.
I feel really whole.
I feel like the last few years,
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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,
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
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
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.?
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
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
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.
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.
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.
