Great to be here as always. Great to have you. Yes. What's up, man? How have you been? I've been pretty good, I guess. I think it's like, that question is such a weird question to ask people, isn't it? Yeah, it is. And I still ask it. I'm a professional. I ask it too. I ask it too It is. And I still ask it. I'm a professional. I ask it too. I ask it too all the time. We all do.

Especially like if you're in New York, everyone's like, how are you doing? Okay, I'll have a poppy seed bagel. Yeah. It's like, that's the greetings. How are you doing? Only one correct answer.

Good. And then onto whatever transaction you're involved with, with the person. Or you ask, how are you doing? And they say, how are you doing? And then you do the thing. Right. person. Or you ask, how you doing? And they say, how you doing? And then you do the thing. Right.

It's a greeting. How you doing? How you doing? All right, Johnny, we're going to get to know you a little bit better in a moment. First, we're going to tell our listeners a couple of the things we're talking about today. A couple Biden backsliding, adopting some Trumpy policies that he was not not a fan of. He ran on a campaign of not opening big drilling projects or, you know, incarcerating families and children at the border. And it seems like he's having a real think on whether he should he should do the incarceration it's just bad but we might get to the oscars and memoriam segment just they seem to fuck that up quite a bit frequently this year no exception but people are always like how how do you make the decision how do you come up with

the list and it is a seat shrouded in secrecy You have to die to find out. Yeah, exactly. That's the last thing they tell you as you're dying is whether you made the cut and how they came to that decision. You made it. See you later. Sorry, Paul Sorvino. Sorry, man. The name didn't work.

We got too many Ps in there. Exactly. It's going to be a problem. We got too many P's in there. Exactly. People are, it's gonna, it's gonna be a problem. So we'll talk about that. We'll talk about maybe Joe Rogan's comedy club, anti-woke comedy club that just opened in Texas.

The Mandalorian returned a couple of weeks ago with no Gina Carano. I always want to add an N. I always want to call her Gina Carano. No. And that's incorrect. They do it do it. Why not just call her like Gina Carano. Yeah, let's keep at it. Yeah. Anyways, well, we'll talk about that, how they're leaving the door open for her return, all of that. Plenty more. But first, Johnny,

we do like to ask our guests, you might know this about us, we like to ask our guests, what's something from your search history? Okay. Well, this is embarrassing. I mean, isn't it always? Oh, boy. Like I said, I'm really proud of this. Yeah.

No, that's why we ask it. We want to know something humiliating. Give us the goods. I have been really obsessed with the past few weeks with watching Flat Earth videos on YouTube. Yeah. Because, I mean, I'm not into Flat Earth, but I do, I feel like it's like that thing with magic where

you like to be tricked. Right. Like you want the you want the possibility like you don't believe it, but you're like but if this shit was true, it could be fun. I like being sold. The feeling of being sold on it feels good.

Yeah, like what a universe they exist in. Yeah, I think my search history is filled with all these videos from this guy, Eric Dubé. They're just, they're so dumb. And the most recent one is talking about how they prove flat Earth because they... There's people... I can't even talk. It's so funny.

They say that the flights that prove that the Earth is round get canceled whenever someone tries to take one. Like a flight from Santiago, Chile to, I think, Sydney, Australia. They'll say, oh, that flight gets canceled. Right. Because it falls off the Earth. They have to get their technology up and running. What do they think of it? Like, ice tubes?

They'll, like, shoot across the... I'm always confused, like, what they think is happening. Well, that's the fun. That's honestly, that's the fun that's honestly that is the real fun is to watch the videos and see the explanation because it's it's like this weird thing where they have all these workarounds for everything and it's it's really creative yeah no absolutely it's very creative it's fun to see it it's like someone making like a machine

out of popsicle sticks or something like that. It's like you could have used something else. Some of the best yes ending in the world is happening in the flat earth community. Absolutely. Yeah, the improv community in the flat earth is exploding. They coincide. They coincide. I think it would be fun if the earth was flat.

Like, can you imagine like edge of the earth parties and shit? That's how we know the earth isn't flat. Because nobody, we motherfuckers, we would go into that shit all the time. It would be a destination. By now, like, we're on the edge of the earth. Motherfuckers would go party. The way we know is there's so much money to be made by, like, trips to the edge of the earth. Yeah.

It would be so much money. Disney would have made so much money off of that by now. Hell yeah. Oh, man. That's probably what it is. There would be a park right on the edge. Yeah. But the edge is huge, though. Oh, man. That's probably what it is. There would be a park right on the edge. Yeah. But the edge is huge, though,

according to them. It's very big. Well, it's got to be. We know about the ice wall. I think Antarctica is an ice wall. Yeah. Yeah. It's an ice wall

that you can't get beyond. Oh, it's an ice wall to keep us from going over the edge. Yeah. So it's not an edge. It's just we're in a box then. Right?

We're in a box. I think they think it's not an edge, it's just we're in a box then. Why? We're in a box? I think they think it's like a chessboard, right? They think it's like a flat piece of slab. A big flat disc that's maybe kind of got a bit of a doming action to it. I'm not really sure.

You know, it doesn't really make a whole lot of sense. So it's hard for me to explain it to you guys. You have to watch for yourself. You have to watch for ourselves. Take the time and watch an hour and a half long documentary from a guy who has a mic that he found in a trash can. Yeah.

We'll put the links in the footnotes, everybody. Yeah, yeah. Put the links. All my links. Educate yourself on this. Oh, man. You guys are just gonna flip this whole bot daily like guys it's gonna be a big schism because the happy listeners are like wait i've been i didn't know that they didn't believe in it while this time there's a big oh my god that'd be great i will link off to the clip on twitter i i think i actually have already the um there's a video where a guy

like conducts a an experiment he's a flat earther and he's like so here you go here's one for you if this if the earth was really round then i wouldn't be able to see this flashlight that's you know two miles away it through these two uh holes that i set up right here wait a second where's the flashlight and the guy he's like talking about a walkie talkie's like three feet up it's it's he's like huh it's a bummer yeah it's pretty pretty that's a pretty good one yeah it does always like we were fascinated and you know the whole flat earth world, world of flat earthers. So we got a book for the office. You got the book?

We got a book. I got a book just in the mail last week. It's thick. And it goes to anti-Semitism so quickly. Oh, yeah. You have to have that. That's a big part of it. Yeah.

It falls to anti-Semitism. Is it the one that has the cartoon on the cover? I think ours has a map on the cover. It kind of makes it seem like this is made by cartographers. Cartographers have some questions on this earth roundness

thing, guys. The one you have has a cartoon? It's a new book that the guy just put out this guy eric dubay and it's clearly uh you know sort of a self-published book surprise but you can get on amazon and it's called i have to find it i just bought it and man it's good it just it's called flat earth faq so it's basically like everything you ever wanted to know about flat earth and one flat earthism for dummies which yeah he knows his audience it's got all the stuff doesn't really have much chapter breaks or anything but it's wonderful or paragraph breaks or yeah it's one it's one long run-on

sentence basically with a lot of clip art a lot of really bad clip art that hasn't been like sized properly and just so much stuff. Blurry and pixelated. Yeah. Well, we all know that when you see stuff like that, it's because it's the real thing. It's truth. It's truthiness. That's what we call that.

Hasn't been through the liberal media filters. Yeah. Hasn't been glossed up. Hasn't been edited. Hasn't been pre-digested for you. The woke. It's raw. That's right. The raw uncut. up. Sorry it hasn't been pre-digested for you you baby birds. It's raw. That's right. The raw uncut. What is

something you think is overrated? This is dumb but I think the ability to make a good stew is not as hard as you think. It's not as hard as you think. I've just been obsessively making stews the past few weeks and it's not that hard to make a good stew.

So the difficulty level of making a good stew, overrated. I was come by thinking it was difficult, and now I've just been catapulted in this world of you can do stew. I'm a stewmaker. Yeah. I'm a stewmaker. I'm a stewmaker. I'm also considered a stewman. Of the Los Angeles stewmakers.

Hi, I'm a stewmanaker. I'm a Stumaker. I'm also considered a Stuman. Of the Los Angeles Stumakers. Hi, I'm a Stuman. There you go. It seems like one of those things that is pretty simple instructions, too. Like, you know, I think sometimes we, you know, look, I grew up, spoiler alert, I grew up black. So, like, you know, growing up, we learned our recipes by our ancestors saying all right that's enough you know we don't they i never saw my fucking grandparents follow a recipe they just knew they just knew right but as i've gotten older and i got rid of the whole what if you follow recipes you can't cook like no fuck that you can just follow a recipe you can cook well and then

like you can also change the recipe up to your liking and add stuff or take stuff away that you don't like or you do like and stew seems like one of those things that is a pretty simple process to just follow steps one through like 10 to get a pretty good fucking stew and you can customize it a whole time you can customize it you customize it till you like it like when i make chili I don't believe in secret ingredients. I tell people what my secret ingredients is. I throw a little bit of Sweet Baby Ray barbecue sauce in that joint. Give it that little kick.

Coca-Cola? Sweet kick though. Coca-Cola, I've never tried that. I feel like that's always the thing that people are surprised by. You put Coke in the sauce, but put Coca-Cola in there. That makes sense though. Yeah, it does. It makes sense. It tastes tastes good it's a little sweet it's got it's got a it's good for something like that like chili or any kind of a sauce coke yeah okay it's the best

our best scientific minds have formulated it so we might as well use it do you use the coca-cola with or without the cocaine? I try to combine it. I open a can of Coke and then I add, you know, obviously I add fair trade cocaine to my Coca-Cola. It's been sifted and tested. Triple tested.

Triple tested by, you know. You're not trying to kill nobody. You're just trying to add some flavor. Because when I'm having a stew, I want to be like wired after, you know, ripped, just jacked up. That's what people look for from a stew. Yeah. The, the slow cooker recipe, like the slow cookers in general are really a godsend for

people who suck at cooking. Like, like I do. What is a, what's something you think is underrated underrated uh fresh chopped chives fresh chopped chives fresh chopped chives you gotta have this is all that's my cooking segment right now but basically fresh chopped chives if you have a chive plant you can do some fresh chopped chives you put them on there's nothing they don't make better interesting because it's like you get flavor of garlic, but not the overpowering amount of garlic that some people don't like. You also get that flavor of onions without the onion.

It's all this stuff. You get something that's green, so it looks nice. You get to chop them up. You get to say fresh chopped chives. They're just the greatest. You have a plant? You have a plant at the crib? I have a couple of chive plants out there in the garden, and they're like the greatest. You have a plant? You have a plant at the crib? I have a couple of chive plants out there in the garden

and they're like going off. Also, if you live in California, you can basically have chives all year round. If you do it right. Yeah. All year round, you can have chives. See, I've been wanting to do that. I've been wanting to like put a little garden out outside,

just like for some stuff because I'm lazy. And by lazy, it's not that i'm lazy to get i'm lazy to go to the grocery store i like going to the grocery store once a week if i have to to get i buy a bunch of shit bulk a bulk grocery shop and when you buy fresh shit which is always better goes bad it goes bad it goes bad if you don it. So like that's easier to shop fresh. It is easier to shop if you are buying any, you're going to cook it within the next few days or anything like that. So because of that,

I don't do a lot. I have like chives in a little bottle. Yeah. Not fresh. You don't want that. And they're great. They're not good. I want that fresh.

Okay. I'm reading here. Cause I always confuse chives with green onions. Everybody does. That's the thing. Everybody does. Green onions are great, but chives are better. And chives, I'm reading, you can just be like green onions.

You typically pull the whole plant and use the whole plant when you're making it. But chives, they're saying you can snip the top. All you want is the top. So you snip the top and leave the plant in the ground to regrow. Yeah, I'm a snip tipper. I'm a tip snipper. You're a tip snipper? I'm a tip snipper for my FCC.

That's my new single. It's called Tip Snip in the FCC. That's right. What else is in the garden of Johnny? What else is in the garden of Johnny? What else is in the garden of Johnny? I got a bunch of garlic right now. I'll probably harvest that in the next probably a few months. Probably in about two months, I'll harvest all the garlic. And I got a ton of carrots.

So that's the other thing. My stew, I put in a ton of homegrown carrots I pulled out that day, which is the first time I've done that. It was incredibly satisfying. I've never grown carrots successfully, but I have a ton of carrots that are all ready to be plucked right now. And I chopped them up and threw them in the stew. I have a bunch of peas I just started. I just started my third version of spinach because the first two spinaches I planted got eaten by, I don't know, maybe like squirrels or something like that.

Yeah. It was really frustrating. So I spent about three hours building these wire screens to cover the spinach plants. They don't get eaten. And I've got strawberries in there. I've got a bunch of blueberry plants I put in last year that should be taken off this year. Yeah. I got a lot of stuff.

Yeah. It's impressive. This is great. This is great. This is great. I love this. I love it. Southern California is the place to take up gardening because it's like things just like grow accidentally here.

Especially this time of year too, because it's called the second spring. So if you plant stuff in December, you will have, if you plant anything like any lettuces, any kind of like peas or any kind of like root vegetables like carrots or anything like that, they will just grow without almost any help whatsoever. You almost don't even need to water some of these plants. Yeah. Especially this year. Am I right? Oh, yeah.

Am I right? For real. One time we were having people over to my house that I wanted to think I was cool. And we had like a little garden, but I actually buried like some carrots in the in the earth. Oh, my God. Yeah, I did. Like, oh, yeah, we just pulled these out. Oh, my God.

Yeah. It's not not my proudest moment. But forget the rubber bands or the tags off. So it was not a, not great. Did you tell him later? Yeah. Yeah.

Of course. Immediately. I couldn't, I couldn't let myself get away with that. That was like a couple of years. Like, Hey guys, can you come,

we need to talk. Everybody come over for a second. Remember that stew I made a couple of years ago? Uh, it had a bunch of dirt in it. Yeah. That was, it was my bad. I just wanted you guys to think

I was more organic. That produce was from Ralph's. But anyways. All right. Well, we'll see if I'll be able to ever recover from that revelation. Let's take a quick break. Yeah.

We'll just have you know right now, you will not.

I'm Keri Champion, and this is season four of Naked Sports, where we live at the intersection of sports and culture. Up first, I explore the making of a rivalry, Kaitlyn Clark versus Angel Reese.

I know I'll go down in history. People are talking about women's basketball just because of one single game. Every great player needs a foil. I ain't really near them boys. I just come here to play basketball every single day, and that's what I focus on. From college to the pros, Clark and Reese

have changed the way we consume women's sports. Angel Reese is a joy to watch. She is unapologetically Black. I love her. What exactly ignited this fire? Why has it been so good for the game? And can the fanfare surrounding these two supernovas be sustained? This game is only going to get better

Listen to Naked Sports on the Black Effect Podcast Network, iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. The Black Effect Podcast Network is sponsored by Diet Coke. And we're back. And so a couple couple Biden stories, one from last week that the Biden administration was considering bringing back the policy of detaining migrant families, a policy that Joe Biden, when he was running for president, you might remember that said was inhumane and like that's a that's a direct quote and what like there was even a part where i think he made a statement children should be released from ice detention with their parents immediately this is pretty simple and i can't believe i have to say families belong together

like they're real like i can't believe i even have to say this i'm serious man i'm serious hey hey man uh hey man do it do it man it's hey man it's the right thing man don't don't do that serious you think i'm kidding i'm not kidding nobody thinks you're fucking kidding man people think that you're not that you don't have the courage of your convictions is i think what people think but yeah, turns out he's now considering reinstituting the policy. And I don't know. There's also the conditions currently like without the family detention, the conditions at some ice facilities are so barbaric that the single adults are being detained are on a mass hunger strike. Oh, that's great. Jesus.

Throw some kids in there. Yeah. A mass hunger strike. Yeah. Yeah. That's sad. Wow. Well,

that's not good. It's not. It's sometimes I hear shit like this and it's like man i think if we knew everything that like you know that was going on we wouldn't be like we because it's already bad but we wouldn't be able to like continue our souls would just evaporate out of just being broken and grinded into dust because like you would think all right this dude who actually said hey you know this is all bad that would be another one priority and then you just find out nah it's not and in many ways they don't give a shit it's just lip service

yeah yeah you know yeah and to be driven to a point where you can't eat yeah when you don't eat i love my man you know how much you got to break me to get me to on a hunger strike right you gotta break me a lot you gotta break me a lot so i'm gonna eat something we bread something yeah hunger strike fuck yeah it's usually that's like a political prisoner move, usually. And that's the first time I've ever heard of people who are not part of like a political being political prisoners doing a hunger strike. Yeah. I mean, in some ways they are political prisoners. Right. Yeah.

Just in a really fucked up system that only has two parties and both of them are kind of either center or center right at best so and then the other one is like super far right wing so this is the sort of shit that is going to keep happening as long as that's true but yeah experts have called the practice cruel and inhumane and one that adds trauma to trauma when it comes to detaining entire families, especially in conditions like they're talking about. I'm not an expert, but I can kind of... Also, Johnny Pemberton has called it... I've called it cruel and inhumane. And maybe just Johnny Pemberton says,

isn't there another way we can do this? Yeah, maybe a different approach. And I'm saying... Well, are you an expert, Johnny? Yeah. I'm an expert in knowing what's comfortable. And I think that that is not comfortable. Yeah. OK. Not a great way to go. As long as you're an expert. Right. The Biden administration also gave formal approval. So this one, they're not even in the process of just considering. They gave formal approval for the controversial Willow Oil Drilling Project in Alaska,

which would allow oil giant Canoco Phillips to do what giant oil companies do on the Petroleum Reserve, which is the country's largest single expanse of pristine land. Like there's no roads or anything. And they're just doubling down now. Yeah. Like, well, you know, we can't fix this. Let's just let's just get some let's get some oil out of there since we're going to we're already just wrecking it.

Yeah. Might as well squeeze it. Might as well squeeze it for what it's worth. The most dystopian detail of this is that it involves like the plan involves adding chillers on the Alaskan tundra, which will refreeze the ground. Like these are machines that freeze the like use, I don't know, some technology to like freeze the ground to support new oil drilling equipment because of the effects of climate change. So the ground is like a crazy thing. Yeah. That's like a sci-fi thing. I've never heard of that.

A chiller. I think it must be so imagine free, something that freezes ground. Right. God damn. Yeah. Yeah. I didn't know either,

but that is the solution they come up with is like, you know, burning presumably oil or energy to like in a very limited local sense offsetting the effects of climate change while contributing to climate change overall that is kind of like it's kind of beautiful in a way it's kind of like one of the things where oh that's so like a fucked up loop. Yes. Like that's ridiculous. Yeah. Wow.

That's cool. Chillers. Get them out there. Maybe I can shoot some Alaskan Bering Sea gold weather out there. Just like do like a three way symbiosis. Yeah. It's maybe just cover the planet and chillers. And then we've got this whole thing licked for like a couple of weeks.

We'll have a nice couple of weeks where the climate will go back to normal and then it'll get much worse. But those two weeks, though, you know. It was a great two weeks. These two weeks are beautiful. God damn. Best two weeks I've ever had in my life. Yeah. And then followed by, God damn, this is the worst week i ever had in my damn

life yeah man that's funny yeah that's why i come on this podcast is to learn stuff that i'm trying to ignore and now i'm like oh i get to learn about this like you know every once in a while i get to uh find out what i've been uh missing yeah i'm like okay well did you catch the oscars in memoriam section last night i did not watch the oscars what yeah oh man good for you i did catch it i caught it i it always it it it the the in memoriam uh controversy always cracks me up i know you're about to get into it but it always cracks me up because it's always gonna be one like and no matter what there's always a controversy and like each year whatever whoever's doing the grammys the oscars the emmys whoever's doing it i feel like each year they try to say this is the year where we're not going to get it right. And then somebody's like, you didn't get it right.

And I don't know how you get it. I don't know how you get an in-memoriam right. How do you get it? Let's hear the controversy, Jack. Yeah. So I actually skipped the in-memoriam section because I was putting my kids to bed but they apparently did not have paul sorvino tony cerrico both of who are from goodfellas which was nominated for best picture but lost to dances with wolves yeah they also left anne hache out and they also didn't include charlie dean

who died of like bacterial sepsis in august and was one of the stars of Triangle of Sadness, which was one of the Best Picture nominees. That's wild. That's crazy. Just the fact that it let her out for real. Also, such a tragic death. Yeah. Ugh.

Yeah. Such a great film, too. The best movie I saw all year. She was really good in it. I couldn't believe. Outstanding. She was so good that I was like, oh, what else is she in? She's going to be amazing.

And yeah, she had just died. Yeah. That feels like a huge oversight. Yeah, it feels like a mistake. If somebody who was literally nominated in this year's telecast, it feels like a huge oversight to leave them out of the immemorium yeah yeah it always does it always feels like a thing where they're like oh shit right like like the i don't know it just seems like it's this closed system which i think it must be because

it definitely is yeah it is the biggest crock of shit that's ever been stirred up it's that's the whole thing about i remember years ago snl bill murray did his oscar picks as a joke and they were like 95 right because every oscar is not about nothing's ever about what the thing was it's about either what the person did before that they couldn't give it to him because of because they have a backlog or it's like a political thing or it's pale it's one of those three things and everything is that once in a while something like it's like a broken clock is right right twice a day kind of thing that's what the oscars is it's just once in a is right, right. Twice a day kind of thing. That's what the Oscars is.

It's just once in a while, someone gets there, get something they deserve. But at the same time, I mean, isn't everyone who's nominated just don't they all deserve to win? Sure. Yeah.

I mean, this whole, the whole system of the Oscars is, you know, like there's always going to be the, the way I look at it is there's always going to be snubs, right? Because there's just a lot of great performances. And then there's always going to be the like, especially us being in the industry.

We know what it really is. We know how political it is. We know how much behind the scenes cash goes into it, how much smooching goes into it. The In Memoriam is I don't know. I think and this is kind of my funny take is they just got to start picking big longer songs man uh you know they gotta start picking longer songs to make it most in memoriam yeah you know just like if you get if you pick a five minute song man it's only so many people you can show you gotta be you gotta get a 10 minute song out there so it's just like, we can show everybody

because they try to do it so stylized. They try to make it so beautiful. They should do the opposite. Two minute pop song. It's just like a list. It's like those things at the end of a commercial. Not applicable. Yeah.

That just shows like, you have to like slow it down. You have to hit pause because they're so used to people watching on TikTok. They just cram it in. You have to hit pause because they're so used to people watching on TikTok. They just cram it in. You have to try to pause it. Yeah. I think they should give Johnny Pemberton the chance to write a We Didn't Start the Fire style song every year at a memoriam that includes all the names.

We didn't wish these people had died. But they're gone forever. Someone pulled the lever. No, they're gone forever. Someone pulled the lever. No, they're gone forever because God pulled the lever. Yeah. And then people just get left out because their name doesn't rhyme with anything. You got to pay if you want to be. It has to be a thing where they just openly say it's $1,000.

It's a $10,000 to get you. It's like, you know what it should be like? It's the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Walk of Fame. Walk of Fame. Sorry. You. Yeah, Walk of Fame. Sorry. You want to be remembered? You're going to have to pay up, motherfucker.

Get a pay. Otherwise, we'll put your name on the list on the website somewhere, but you want to get on a telecast. Yeah. Right. You got to pay for it. That would be so great if they were just openly, yep, just whoever pays more. You can pay extra and have it hold on your face for longer. Maybe show two pictures.

Right. Maybe a scene from one of your movie features. We'll show a video clip if you pay $50,000. That would be great. We'll put some audio with it for $100,000. We'll hear your voice for one last time. It's a Kickstarter. Yeah.

People will start paying. people will start paying like before they die too yeah yeah you gotta you gotta be in good standing with the academy which means you've gotta be like paid up like on your dues you gotta pay your dues it'll be like twitter blue yeah exactly like twitter blue like who is this person it's like oh it's some guy who has a lot of money he's not even dead right it's like but he's like he Oh, it's some guy who has a lot of money. He's just not even dead. But he's like, he got sick earlier and it scared him a little bit. Who's David Keegan.

Oh, he edited a show about 10 years ago. Yeah. This is not the first reason. Not, not, not the only reason, but I have,

I've been saying, let Elon Musk take over the Oscars. Am I right guys? You should just take over everything. Just let Elon. Thank you. He can ruin the world. This guy's nailing it. So every year at this time, everyone's like, wait, how did they come up with this list?

What is the criteria? It is completely shrouded in secrecy. The Oscar producers claim that they have no say in who gets chosen. It's just completely out of their hands. And then the job goes to them it's above to a secret panel of like hollywood jedis they really use the phrase fucking secret panel that's hilarious of all the things to keep secret of all the things to keep secret not who wins the awards but who are we going to celebrate who died yeah the cynicism like, their quotes on it are, like, yeah, it's that getting on the

in-memoriam and, like, asking us for tickets. We can't, like, determine who gets tickets. Like, it's just, you know, they view it as a favor. Like, it's just, like, backscratching getting on the in-memoriam list. The in-memoriam. I can't believe that's a con. I didn't know it was a controversy until today. Yeah.

I really didn't. It's every year, every year, you know, somebody's, there are people who are upset that, you know, somebody didn't make the list,

which, you know, look, I get it. I get it. Especially those families. Like the, I'm sure.

And Hesh's family is like, where was my mom? Where was she at she must have said something bad that's what i think she said a bunch of things she's probably talked some shit about people and they're like sure well you die in a in a crazy way you're fucking yeah yeah it was also like i i feel like i have some sense of the makeup of the secret panel because the like everybody pays attention like who's going to be the last name that they you know mention because that's that they usually reserve that

and so last night it was like james khan the song is ending and you're assuming that's going to be it and then they like throw in somebody who is like academy president for a bunch of years at as the which you know i'm not here to like say well screw that guy but like it's they're they're not doing it for the audience they're doing it for themselves and other yeah like insider members of this secret panel like that's what that's what they're interested in i bet the olympic committee tells them who to put on there and then they in turn get to tell people who wins the olympics yeah oh man i mean i i understand where the conspiracy theories come from i don't believe in a lot of them but maybe it's qatar gets to pick it and they left charlie off because isn't she israeli oh maybe that's probably what it is yeah there. There you go. So, yeah, the Qataris are in charge.

Yeah. It's me, y'all. It's me. I choose. Oh, it is you, Shaquille. I mean, there's a subreddit suggesting that it might be you. It's me. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You know what? I'm just going to be real with you. I'll just be forgetting who died that year. That's what it feels like, though. Like, like honestly it feels like that is part of it that they just they're like oh shit like it really does feel like an accident sometimes like why wouldn't paul sort of you know be yeah mentioned like he has like because i was waiting for bob saget i was like we're gonna see bob saget he wasn't up there bob's and then i had to go look i was like oh what he died like he died before last year's oscars oh he did yeah so he was on last

year's ox i was like i feel like they also didn't list him last year i think they i don't remember i actually don't remember i don't remember much i was very high last year and then the slap happened uh so i just remember being high in the slap and that's really it was the most was the most watched oscars ever because i feel like everyone the slap was such a you know slap her around the world so now i was tuning in this year to watch the oscars even though they know nothing's going to happen because you can't top that but it seems like it would probably be the most watched oscars yeah i would say it probably would be i don't't know. They haven't released ratings. Last year,

they left off Bob Saget and Norm Macdonald. What the hell? You know what that is? That's really excusable. That's classic. Comedians don't get any respect. The Academy has always hated comedy

and they're just doubling down. Like, you know what? We don't just, we fucking hate comedy so much. We're going to leave off Norm Macdonald and Bob. That's ridiculous. That's ridiculous. That's wild.

I thought he would have been, especially because he dies so close to the actual ceremony. That is incredible. That's fucking wild. Of course they left him off. See, this just goes to show even more. Now you know the controversy, Johnny. Wow. Now you know.

I can't believe this. I've been, I just. Your eyes are open now, brother. Every time I come on here, I'm like, oh, God damn it. You guys tell me all this stuff that somehow I've not known about. Now I know about it. There you go. Yeah.

So next year. That's ridiculous. When the next one comes up, because it's going to be another one next year you'll be ready you'll be ready wow let's all make a pact to try not to die before next year and then hopefully yeah

and if I do and I'm not on the memorial I want y'all to raise hell avenge me avenge me yeah somebody Kanye West the Oscars that's right raise hell. Avenge me. Avenge me! Somebody Kanye West the Oscars. That's right. Alright, let's take a quick break. We'll come back.

I'm Keri Champion, and this is Season 4 of Naked Sports, where we live at the intersection of sports and culture. Up first, I explore the making of a rivalry, Kaitlyn Clark versus Angel Reese. I know I'll go down in history.

People are talking about women's basketball just because of one single game. Every great player needs a foil. I ain't really near them boys. I just come here to play basketball every single day, and that's what I focus on. From college to the pros, Clark and Reese have changed the way we consume women's sports. Angel Reese is a joy to watch. She is unapologetically black.

I love her. What exactly ignited this fire? Why has it been so good for the game? And can the fanfare surrounding these two supernovas be sustained? This game is only going to get better because the talent is getting better. This new season will cover all things sports and culture. Listen to Naked Sports on the Black Effect Podcast Network, iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

The Black Effect Podcast Network is sponsored by Diet Coke. The Black Effect Podcast Network is sponsored by Diet Coke. And we're back. And so is comedy in Texas. Joe Rogan turned an old Alamo draft house into Austin's newest comedy club mecca, dubbed the Comedy Mothership, which is a bummer because it like ties in i don't know it's such a it's such a bummer that he is like both he's like into psychedelics and aliens but also like really shitty right wing political takes yeah but so he's like comedy mothership tickets to the opening week were 40 sold out and have been going

online for $500 plus a two drink minimum. Who the comics? Oh, you know, Roseanne Barr. Truly. She was one of the opening weeks. Terrible.

Comics, yeah. There's a profile of the this comedy location and it opens with a woman is standing outside the theater holding a unvaxxed sperm sign up and that's they're like so you know you're in the right place joe rogan's new comedy club mecca in addition to joe rogan the lineup featured comics like rosanne barr who praised the club for daring to have a green room where comedians are openly drunk and high has she been in a green what the fuck that is kind of nice talking about yeah i've been i get drunk and high welcome elsewhere every green room not every green room but i've i've

been in i've been in green rooms where people are smoking and there's always beers and shit or drinks and things like that. This isn't new, at least in my experience. Yeah, it's not exactly cutting edge, but I'm not surprised that she thinks that that is cutting edge. Yeah. It's okay. Yes, very true. Very true. Yeah. It's okay. Yes.

Very true. Very true. The crowd was reportedly mostly dudes with beards and baseball caps. And the jokes on the opening nights were like gay slurs and jokes about trans people. Of course. And so they banned phone usage. So like you have to seal them in the pouches. That's a good thing though.

They do that at a lot of clubs. Most clubs do that now, which is, I mean, all the clubs I've performed at that do that, it's a much better experience. It's a much better experience. It's not even like the whole thing of recording someone, that's one thing. But really, it's just about audience distraction. That's the principal thing of it. Is that a thing that people will be on their phones while you're out there? Absolutely. It's the worst thing that you can possibly encounter is someone on their phone.

The first show I ever did after the pandemic. I mean, granted, this is after the pandemic. Well, not after. It was the first show I did when they were starting to do shows again. It was an outdoor show. It was these two ladies in the front row, and they were both on their phone. I'm like, you know, this is insane.

Like you, you can't, you left your house to do the thing you do in your, you've been doing your house for the last eight months. Right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Also can't really blame him because it's like people forgot how to behave, you know? Yeah. We're all broken at this point. Yeah. But the phone bag thing, I think that's just,

that's just a policy in general. When you can get away with it, what people i think it's just that's just yeah that seems to be like general when you can get away with it what people do it's just expensive yeah it's expensive it's probably like not the audience's first choice but i think in this case they're like well he also disagreed with mask mandates so we'll let him take our phones to you know but yeah i don't know he he's also like this is like i can say whatever i want without getting canceled here i feel like he's not been he's been like opposite the opposite of canceled like he's just built a massive yeah massive media empire by just saying, yeah, punching down. And then he's like,

finally, I, I have a place where I can speak freely, but yeah. So this is the thing. He has a place where he can speak freely outside of the place where he can speak freely, which is his own show,

his own podcast. Sure. Yeah. No, it's, it's, you know, of course the funny thing about, no, it's, you know, of course, the funny thing about, oh, here's a place where I can speak freely and not be canceled.

And, you know, you can't record it and anything like that, which I agree is a good policy just because, you know, as comedians, you don't always want your shit to be recorded and then live on the Internet if you don't want it on the Internet. Yeah. If you're working material, blah, blah but um but there is a there is a part of me that's just like well if you believe what you're saying what you're worried about it getting out for if you think it's you know like that means you know you're saying some shit that means you know you're saying some shit if i know i'm about to say some shit that could get me in trouble yeah i'm gonna tell you lock your phones up too yeah like go ahead lock them up real quick we we about to talk and we gonna keep it in here because this might get me in trouble but if it's some shit i believe and i'm like yeah man fuck you

i believe this shit say that shit with my whole chest say it with my whole chest. Say it with my whole chest. Like, the Immemorial is perfect. Thank you. And I should stay in charge of it. All right, The Mandalorian is back for season three. Facing a lot of pressure on the home front. My kids really want to watch this shit. They're like six and five. They don't get to watch it?

It's like a little... Oh, they're not quite old enough, you think? Yeah, they're just not and five they don't get to watch it it's like a little oh they're not quite old enough you think yeah they're just not not old enough i think based on arbitrary shit that i've like heard read somewhere on a on a forum somewhere but the so the this is good news for fans who need who like two shows in which pedro pascal escorts a highly important youth through dangerous terrain it's kind of wild like what a specific thing to get a typecast i mean it really is a typecast though because it's like that thing where you know we like what you did here we're just gonna have you do it some more because it's working yeah we'll have you do it until you die you're gonna be doing this thing because you're just, he's got the voice.

Yeah. He's good. He's daddy and also like daddy, like kind of the two types of daddy that everybody wants. He's multifaceted daddy. Yeah. He's daddy's daddy. Daddy's dad. Yeah.

He also does the same thing in the Last of Us show where he's, you know how the Mandalorian is sort of an imperfect hero? Like he makes mistakes, but he always ends up winning? Yeah. Same with the Last of Us guy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's like it's typecast down to the details of the character. There you go. But fortunately, the Last of Us is like, what if we could see his face?

It's beautiful, right? Like that's, we should could see his face it's it's beautiful right like that's we should we should just keep his face visible so gina karana karana karana no no no no no no no no no no no famously shit cam by disney after putting a bunch of right-wing bullshit on social media including posts comparing being a conservative to being Jewish in Nazi Germany. And so her character, Cara Dune, will not be joining Greef Karga, Din Jarin, Grogu, Moff Gideon. So so Super Producer Justin was telling me to not point anything out about or. Or he was saying, I did not say that.

I did not say that. This is the oldest observation in, in the book, which is that you can make fun of the goofy names. Cause they are goofy. I'm just saying it's, it's the oldest. It's just not, it's not very creative joke is all I was trying to say.

I'm just saying they're great names. They're great names. They're very like, they, I don't know. I I'm curious what the like writer's room like how much of the writer's room is devoted to naming because grief like they're just like yeah they they're so specific they're always like just perfect

what was it move move bop and what what was the names again? Moofba something. You said Moof something. Grief Carga. Caradoon. Grief Carga. Caradoon. Dinjarin. Dinjarin.

They roll off the tongue. They sound like a delicious menu item. Moth Gideon. Grief Cardin. That's what you were talking about. Moth Gideon. Moth Gideon. That's right.

Moth Gideon with chicken, please. And I'll have, how's that grief card? Is it pretty good? It's great. Do you want egg with that? We can do a fried egg on top. And then Cara Dune is like

more in the Luke Skywalker like family where it's just like, well, this is a normal name with like some cool shit. We have a 20 ounce Cara Dune. It's well marbled and it's from our farms in New Zealand.

Yeah. I'll take that. The caradune cut is sort of between a poorhouse and a ribeye. It's just a steak. That's all it is. It's just a steak. It's Kansas City style.

I mean, like, it would be fun. Listen. Can I top off your Stein of Grogu? There you go. Of course you can. Of course you can. I do think, like, there are people who, like, come up with these names. Obviously, there are.

That's not a groundbreaking thing to say. But I think it's twofold. I think there are. They really think of the names because it sounds like you can just be like what's the name how about blank tar you're like all right cool but then there's like then there's somebody in that same room who's like but what does that mean what is it derived from what like who takes it way too seriously because you know they believe in the lore of the world and everything like that and so i believe they definitely have people who truly yeah think what would the parents name this kid based on the

place they are the region they are the type of names uh because like a fully lived in world yeah absolutely like blank tar is not good sorry to say. It wouldn't work like that. Well, I think what the alternatives were, it was going to be named like Bucket Skunk or like Scorpion Face. Yeah. Yeah. Which in Guardians of the Galaxy is a great name. Scorpion Face. Yeah.

Creaky Jack. Creaky Jack. Oh, I like that. That's actually kind of cool. I like that. I'm just aging gracefully into that nickname. Creaky Jack. Creaky Jack that nickname. Creaky Jack. Creaky Jack.

Oh, Creaky Jack. Anyways, they didn't really come up. They didn't like fully write her off. The Mandalorian asked Carl Weathers what happened to Dune. And he responds that she was recruited by special forces for a new job somewhere off screen. And. Oh, soap opera trick. Always leave the door open. Always leave the door open.

Always leave the door open. I did like her character, though. I gotta say, that's the problem. There's a good character on the show. Yeah, she's like a badass, right? That'll probably bring her back. You know, look, I'm a fan

of wrestling, and there's an old adage in wrestling. Never say never. Right. And I, you know, like the thing is this show. I don't know when the show is going to end. If it has an unlimited amount of seasons, they can do. But if it has enough seasons, we have a short term memory, unfortunately, as a generation and society. unfortunately as a generation and society i guess even bringing her back be like you know that was 2020 you can come back and have an episode and then there would be a big controversy you know it's like one of those things where i don't agree with anything she said but during that time a lot of people were losing their losing their mind and if she'd if she had walked back what she said she's like guys i was going crazy i was drinking a lot alone at home i don't know why i said something so stupid there would be i think there would be universal like okay yeah um we all we like the nuts yeah you know but yeah she seems to be doubling down on yeah yeah that's that's what hurts because it's like yeah i mean

also what a dumb thing to double down on. Just a truly not very interesting and stupid. Like, that's not a comparison. What did she even say? I forgot. She said something about like mask mandates being similar to how the Jews were treated in Nazi Germany. Yeah. Something like that.

Just the classic non-comparable thing that she knows is not. It's just, you just don't do that. Yeah. Yeah. She has been busy starring in movies made by the Daily Wire, including 2022's Terror on the Prairie, which made officially $804 in its one day theatrical run. Making it one of the biggest box office failures of the year. Also, the title with the most R's in it of all time. Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor.

Yes, they were going for breaking the record for R's. This is why we don't believe y'all, conservatives. Like, if you really like you know what get her out of liberal hollywood and let's watch we're gonna watch him you gotta do better than 840 dollars if you did if you did numbers we'd be like oh they really believe they should all right but 840 dollars that's how you know you're bullshitting you watch the same movies we do and you like the same movies we do you like the same actors and actresses we do you don't give a shit about all the liberal hollywood stuff outside of just talking points on facebook i'll tell you what the problem was jakeith lasted by its target audience for being

too woke because too woke no way you're serious protagonist you serious? I'm trying to cram your woke women action heroes down our throat, Ben Shapiro. Oh, man. That's sad, though. That's one of those things where you're just, I feel bad for everybody. And find out. Yeah. God. Oh, that's so pathetic.

That's so fucking funny. So pathetic. Oh, man. That's hilarious. Fucking Christ. Of course. Of course. Of course. Of course.

Maybe she will be getting circumspect about some of those quotes here in the not too distant future. Jesus. Too woke. That is just, man. Wow. Where's Arnold Schwarzenegger as the action star instead? Or no, who do they like?

Kevin Sorbo? Yeah, Sorbo. Yeah. Kevin Sorbo. I feel like Chris Pine is probably pretty popular. Or not Chris Pine. Chris Pratt. Chris Pratt.

Chris Pratt, really? I feel like Chris Pratt probably across the board. But Chris Pratt still, like Chris Pratt is like a religious motherfucker. Yeah. But he still is very active in like what they would consider liberal hollywood he yeah you know i'm saying he just said i feel like he hasn't offended either side like he's probably okay in their book it's called too dumb to fail too dumb to fail walk this way telling me they're gonna be seeing mario they're gonna to be seeing Mario this month or whenever it comes out.

That's right, Mario. It's going to be a big movie with the Republicans. That's right. Republicans buy Nintendo entertainment systems, too. Yeah, Mario is big in the Republic. That would be hilarious. It's just huge. They love Mario.

The Italian-Americans have flocked to see Mario and are outraged at this depiction of Italian-Americans. Why does he have to be a plumber? Why does his mustache have to be so big? This is unfair. I mean, our big complaint is that his ass is, they did not give him enough ass. Mario had no booty. He had an ass that he used as a weapon.

Yeah, man. Okay. So there's a song I rediscovered my iPod recently. It was right around my car. And I try to do this thing every Sunday where I don't use my phone at all. Sometimes it works, but it's a pretty nice thing. On Saturday night, you throw your phone in the laundry basket. You don't use it until Monday morning when you wake up.

So you're trying to make plans. And so I my ipod i was listening to music i found this song i haven't heard in probably like 10 to 15 years used to be one of my favorite songs ever it's otis clay i can't make it alone it's like a it's from like the 70s uh memphis high records and otis clay somehow i don't know why but his stuff hasn't been reissued like Syl Johnson or Al Green, but this track, I Can't Make It Alone by Otis Clay is just, I mean, I listen to it on repeat, man.

We link off to the information that we talked about in today's episode as well as a song that we think you might enjoy. Super producer Justin,

what is a song that we think people might enjoy Heading into this week Two days after the Oscars Just trying to digest Also shout out to Everything Everywhere All at Once Truly Cleaning up at the Oscars

That was some of the most touching Oscar acceptance speeches I've ever seen So many Daniel Kwan had me tearing up a little bit. That was amazing. So speaking of tearing up, this song is from an artist known as Kosta Teach. Unfortunately, he passed away this weekend

at only 28 years old. He was performing at Ultra Music Festival in South Africa and collapsed twice and never got back up. And, you know, I was really starting to become a fan of his music. As you guys have seen, I've been suggesting a lot of like Afro beats and I'm a piano type of music, which is, you know, based from the African continent. And it's amazing. And I really thought this guy was about to blow up soon. So in his honor, I wanted to recommend this song I really like a lot. This is called My Tama, parentheses, Going, with

Teni, Mayor Kun, Costa Teach, and Chico. And you can find that song in the footnotes. Alright, well the Daily Zeitgeist is a production of iHeartRadio.
