Starting point is 00:03:27 Okay, great. For sure. I can't believe that song didn't launch Kelsey Grammer's recording artist career more than it did. I think that's... I would have expected a concept album after that. The woman who married him that was on Real Housewives says that was the moment she fell in love with him. Really? No.
Starting point is 00:03:47 Hey, baby. That was such a... I'm glad to introduce a guest that we're thrilled to have in our third seat. He is the hilarious comedian Mr. David Huntsberger. Hello, fellas.
Starting point is 00:04:01 Hello, David. How are you? Good. Nice to be back I was in Boise I remember to say hello to Sarah I was standing near the bar at the venue And this girl came over and said Hey can I get you a drink? I was like I'm good thanks
Starting point is 00:04:19 And she goes I'm Sarah, side gang Hell yeah And it took me a second. I was like, what? Oh, oh, right. I was trying to picture, I was like,
Starting point is 00:04:29 does she work there? I was trying to picture all the people that have been, you know, Zeitgang. Yeah, we need to have a, you know,
Starting point is 00:04:36 the watchmen, like the Cyclops hand gesture that they use. Oh, something wild, yeah. Yeah, we need to have like a hand
Starting point is 00:04:41 gesture that is like Zeitgang so people can just walk up and like really confuse the fuck out of our guests. It's when they're on the road. Get it tatted on your throat. Is that how you encourage them to reveal themselves to people? Is you just say their name and then Zeitgang?
Starting point is 00:04:56 I think it's just something that arose organically. Shout out to our one Dutch listener who did get it tatted. Yeah. Bowie. I'm pretty sure that's your display name. I'll follow you. I'll see you out there. Get that ink. You know you know i mean it looks lecker as they say somebody uh got baby yoga tattooed i think baby yoga yeah oh no you should i believe i believe that actually happened who's
Starting point is 00:05:18 holding a white claw oh baby yoda oh they got that tatted? Oh, that's tight. That is super tight. And also has no expiration date. It is evergreen. You'll be telling your grandkids about White Claw and Baby Yoda. Yeah, you'll be saying that was Yoda from Star Wars. Like they edited it out to erase his White Claw past. Can I just say that I saw, like I heard there was this big meme about Baby Yoda. I was like, you know, people were talking about it nonstop for like a week.
Starting point is 00:05:49 And then I finally saw a picture and I wasn't that impressed. Oh, go away. Really? I love Baby Yoda. Really? Like, you think it's like really cool looking? Well, I think the difference is the way it's revealed when you watch the mandalorian okay is what you go what the fuck right and then you're like yeah right i mean i
Starting point is 00:06:11 get if you're just looking at it and you're not actually seeing it on video because it has a lot of mannerisms and affects that make it baby yoda right it just looks more like a toy to me than other, you know, of those Henson type. Oh, like a Muppet? Yeah, yeah. Okay. Well, I mean, I still... Like, real Yoda looked more lifelike. I think it's its dead black eyes. Yeah, it has shark eyes.
Starting point is 00:06:38 Yeah, it has shark eyes. Is it half that spiky hair? No, that's an edit so it looks like Guy Fieri. Oh. I'm sorry, Guyi fieri uh well he's dead laughing yeah because he has a soul patch too and i totally was like well yeah of course you see that facial hair the ewoks are weird looking i don't right yeah that's really what people think baby uh you know what for the uninitiated start showing people that picture baby yoda what you think man uh baby yoda is like 50 years old or something like that it's not that crazy that they would have designed it that way with it with
Starting point is 00:07:21 with the spiky hair and the soul patch she fucking got you man favorite town this is i really got god damn it favorite town this is oh shit all right let's talk about a couple of the things we're talking about and then we're gonna get to know you a little bit better david uh first off uh Miles had his suspicions confirmed. Justin Timberlake. He was misbehaving. Miles has never trusted that man. Misbehaving.
Starting point is 00:07:54 And he had to apologize for that. We're going to talk about some mental health experts weighing in, 350 of them, no less, weighing in on how Trump's brain seems to them. Judge Napolitano thinks Trump will testify, which that would be interesting. That would be the television event we deserve. Right. As we watch this thing burn in flames.
Starting point is 00:08:19 Bernie is getting some pretty strong polling data out of colleges and the minor insignificant state of California. And it's being not covered. So we'll check in with those numbers. The Clintons visited Epstein's baby cloning ranch in New Mexico. And yeah, almost yearly. Oh, not like now. No, no, no. We just never covered it the first time we were going to talk about it.
Starting point is 00:08:50 Nancy Pelosi palosted on this Sinclair reporter. Yikes. We're going to talk about McDonald's attempt to keep up with the Popeye Joneses. Deep cut for NBA fans. We're going to talk about the Legends of the Hidden Temple,
Starting point is 00:09:07 Star Wars TV show that might be coming to us on Disney+, and the new Star Wars ride that is opening at Disney World, Land, both of them? World. I think World is first. World first. Yeah. Yesterday, I think. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:23 I almost don't want to talk. I mean, I might leave the room when you talk about it okay because i don't i want to experience it just in my straight through my soul yeah okay and you can just plug your ears and i'll put my ears yeah dan is in the booth with wacky eyes like he's a dubstep dj about to do the sickest drop on the gobi 10 at coachella 2012 uh but first david we like to ask our guests what is something from your search history that's revealing about who you are?
Starting point is 00:09:49 Oh, shit. I forgot that was one of them. And I mentioned in the past I almost, I don't, I realized why my search history is so boring is I don't like getting ads. Yeah. You know? It's targeted at me.
Starting point is 00:10:08 So I mostly just look at like traffic and the weather and things like that. Do you ever search fake stuff to throw them off the scent? I used to. Lawnmower. But then I still get those ads. I don't need those lawnmower ads. Yeah, that's true. Wait, so then how do you – so do you just know everything? No, I'll ask –
Starting point is 00:10:22 What if you had to – yeah, you would be like, hey, can you search this? I'm trying to think what – you know, i'll do it like through the maps function so i'll look on the map and then search you know they're still getting that they're still getting it but they don't seem to target it oh it's not an ad as much yeah it doesn't follow you across it doesn't follow me yeah if you go to just uncut google yeah yeah yeah so then i'll i'll search stuff through uh or like when i'm at home on the computer I'll do it in like a private browser I feel like that got a negative
Starting point is 00:10:49 connotation be like oh he's in a private what are you looking up porn I'm trying to not get aggressively targeted exactly what's the other one DuckDuckGo that's the one other people use for the precise reason you're talking about I hear a lot of people use DuckDuckGo.
Starting point is 00:11:05 Okay. Also, what kind of phone you got there, guy? Key 2, BlackBerry. Whoa. Coming back, baby. I was like, you got the physical keyboard? Like, it's Oct 3? That actually, it looks like a movie set in the future
Starting point is 00:11:20 where they're, like, creating iPhones. It looks like our 90s idea. It was filmed, like like 10 years ago. Yeah. And it was set in the modern day because it has buttons on the bottom. Correct. Like it has a full on keyboard. And then you see that and you realize that you miss it to some degree. And who's watching, I guess a lot, some people are watching full videos on their phone and they need a giant screen. I don't find myself doing that much or really engaging with a ton of media.
Starting point is 00:11:48 I've never been like, man, I wish my phone was bigger for this video. Like the phone screen has been a fine size to watch video in your hand for as long as I can remember. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:58 I, I've thought it was fine size since the TI 82. You're watching video off of there. Hell yeah, man. Could, what, couldn't you like make animations on that? Like ASCII porn? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:10 Or no, you could play that snake game. Does that how you say ASCII? ASCII? Yeah. Man, you're not initiated, bro. For the nerds out there. I am not. What is something you think is underrated?
Starting point is 00:12:25 Romania. What is something you think is underrated? Romania I traveled and did some Vacationing in Romania Wonderful place Just highly highly recommend Romania Oh and Golden Beats The food Also very underrated
Starting point is 00:12:38 Also a good name for a record What's different about Golden Beats Versus our traditional dye your hands purple beets? What I'm assuming is the number one allure of it is not a terrifying thought that you're going to die if you see the remains in the toilet. Right. And that's got to be appealing.
Starting point is 00:12:59 And secondly, it tastes a little crisper or lighter, like that there's just a little you know like beets there's that nice earthy taste but then it also yeah this is a little tasteless too oh come on i don't know i every time i have beets i'm always like the flavor is not really imposing itself on the rest of the dish it's like has a sweetness to it but i could never be like ah there's that a good old beat taste. That's my favorite kind of candy. Beat flavored candy. Vaguely sweet.
Starting point is 00:13:37 I always felt like when Pee Wee Herman gave Francis that gum that like beats had a hand in that. Mr. Francis is taking a bath. That's my favorite line in that movie. That bathtub imprinted itself on me so hard, man. Oh, it fucked me up. Oh, my God. Incredible. The way he's fucking around with all the toys.
Starting point is 00:13:49 If I went to someone's house that had an infinity pool, I would only be thinking, what do you got indoors? Do you have a big-ass bathtub? And is Mr. Francis taking a bath? That's odd jobs from James Bond. They had, like, cruise ships that were his play toys. Incredible. Enormous. are these floating they had like cruise ships yeah his play toys yeah incredible enormous uh and romania what's something that we might not expect about romania that you found was dope
Starting point is 00:14:13 besides the fact that ikea is aggressively deforesting the fuck out of it the deforestation there is absurd there's a conscientious uh push to keep certain parts of their culture alive as you know they're 1989 they came out of communism right so they're aggressively trying to catch up and you know people trying to establish whatever they their freedom their ability to make as much as they want to make which comes with its own like oh we do that here that here. And it's pretty cutthroat. You see people like a whole family go by on a horse and cart in Romania all the time. Oh, really? Like on the side of the freeway, people zooming by and then just a family like hauling some wood with a horse.
Starting point is 00:14:57 But they're always all together. It's always like the whole family. So you're seeing the two things kind of compete with each other. Right. This advanced, unchecked, capitalistic world. And then also like, you know, you can just get by. Yeah, cart style. Yeah, cart style, burning some wood, living off the land.
Starting point is 00:15:15 Everything there seemed really fresh and well taken care of. And I guess that's maybe something people wouldn't know about it. And it's cool to see. Like everything we have here is like kind of Ikea because it's put it together quick. Get out there. It's going to be broken in two years. It's a pile of garbage. And they have.
Starting point is 00:15:32 Yeah, they have these old houses that like Saxon influence, Germanic. They're beautiful. Everything's carved and like ornately detailed. I think we have a little more time. Yeah. No, it's funny. Last night I was watching that documentary series broken and i specifically just for whatever reason of all the topics there was one about all those uh dressers those like ikea dressers that were
Starting point is 00:15:54 falling over on kids and part of like the way they were talking about the evolution of ikea design was going to like they were talking about how old school furniture was just heavy as fuck yeah so you would never this is like a new phenomenon but because a lot of the stuff that ikea does is just particle board and pressed wood and things like that that it's lighter so it causes more tip overs right and then one of the sources of a lot of that wood is romania and they were talking to this activist who's there is like you know they're wilding out here like they're fucking up like a lot of logging in general not just just IKEA, happens in Romania. And it was so beautiful.
Starting point is 00:16:27 When you saw these forests, and then they were just showing these huge patches of earth that had just completely been kneecapped by deforestation. Yeah, maybe you want to check it out. Go check it out. I highly recommend it. Romania's gorgeous. That sounds dope. What is something you think is overrated?
Starting point is 00:16:42 Oh, man, this all ties in together. Red beats. Two things. And bro mania. No, I'm going with tall, thin, blonde women. I just had it. For whatever reason. I feel attacked.
Starting point is 00:17:00 Not that there's anything wrong with tall, thin, blonde women, but I'm glad to see they canceled the victoria's secret uh walking show or whatever they finally did oh they did yeah it didn't happen this year this is the first year around this time yeah it was trickling down trickling down finally they're like people don't care and they kept i think just pretending that that was an aesthetic that all guys got together and talked about like yeah but have you seen this one yeah and i never heard this tall thin blonde woman look how thin she is yeah which one what's her name i don't know we call
Starting point is 00:17:29 her number 338 right i think actually barstool sports had a day off of just mourning uh because they canceled the victoria's secret show i mean really that's crazy it's like yeah i'm sure that it feels like something and then uh i I think the queen and nothing against her. Taylor Swift seems like a fine person, but very overrated. Artists of the decade. Stop it. Get out of here. Who's the artist of the decade?
Starting point is 00:17:55 I just feel like you can't have people like Stevie Wonder and Madonna and Whitney Houston and people that I don't remember them getting recognized for artists of the decade at any point. And I feel like we can't just start now. You need to do like a retrospect. Go back and give it to people who did it for a long time, who've been out there touring forever. Rather than, oh, and how many mega hits that you like? Any idiot would be like, I know, shake it off.
Starting point is 00:18:21 And then what else? And I am that idiot. I'm like, I don't know how many super hits she really has had yeah hey man it's because popular culture is leaving you behind it is it always has been though i was never uh a part of it even when i was the right demographic yeah i was young and just like i like earth wind and fire arsa the decade 1970s? Should have been. And that derailed their career, not getting that award.
Starting point is 00:18:50 Just that recognition would have done it all. Yeah, what about Frankie Beverly and Maze? They're still doing it! Would have been actually played at weddings if they had gotten that recognition. What is a myth? What's something people think is true you know to be false? Ties back into this. People have said it so much now that there's like a comfort in repeating it,
Starting point is 00:19:08 which is there's no such thing as selling out anymore. That's what people who sell out say. You absolutely can still sell out. Taylor Swift, again, doing commercials for her album on fucking Capital One. Right. Stop it. At some point we have to step in and go like, enough. You've lost all artistic credibility.
Starting point is 00:19:25 Go fuck yourself. So there are people out there that are not selling out. There's just no one talking about them. And then the people that do sell out like that, we've gotten so used to it that it's so competitive now that you either get in and like, oh, good for my friend. They got an ad. They got a spot in this AT&T commercial. They're going to be able to pay their rent. they got an ad, they got a spot in this AT&T commercial.
Starting point is 00:19:43 Right. They're going to be able to pay their rent. Right. It's so competitive that, oh, who cares that they, you know, tied into a company that's aggressively behind net neutrality and restrictions and da, da, da, da, da. You can still sell out. Yes. And so I feel like it's a myth saying that you cannot.
Starting point is 00:19:59 We just don't call people out on it as much anymore. Right. Yeah. Well, I think now in like max revenue culture, it's just like, well, you're securing the bag. Right. That's what we call it now. And people are familiar with all the things that these companies are doing, branding, et cetera. So people will watch an ad that's specifically targeted them.
Starting point is 00:20:18 Like, I was pretty good. That's pretty great. Yeah. You're going to use my information information sell it to other companies then market that right back to me nice one right back to you i hope you'll buy my song i think that's a good point though that it like back you know i talk about how i remember a time like late 80s early 90s when selling out was a thing like nirvana got popular and people were like well they're not cool anymore because they're popular because they're popular and they're signed with a huge label uh and but now
Starting point is 00:20:50 that everything like just all the you know safety nets have been taken away and like capitalism is just this like fucking free-for-all where people like don't have health care i think people are maybe a little bit more sympathetic but the answer isn't to just be like, yeah, well, I mean, this is our new normal. We, you know, the answer would be to put some more, some of those safety nets back. Yeah. Well, I think when it really becomes disingenuous is when you can tell like their disposition or their position on things begin to change because of that alignment with certain companies or things like that. Or they still talk as if there is something like revolutionary about the things that I had this problem when like the Yeezus album came out with
Starting point is 00:21:30 Kanye, he was like, what's, you know, it's like this new slavery thing. And like, I'm trying to change how the music business works. And it's like,
Starting point is 00:21:36 your tour is sponsored by AEG. Like if you want to do some revolutionary, like find a way to subsidize your shows and make it free for other people. But it's like that's when it starts being like, see, like I don't what what is it, though? Yeah. What is it? You also just hate that album. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:55 Yeah. I don't I don't think it's I don't I don't. Yeah. Come fight me. I don't like it. I don't like it. It's more that I think. Look, and I've talked about this all the time.
Starting point is 00:22:02 It was the beginning really of the end in terms of like where he started to see himself as an artist. Yeah. I agree with everything you're saying, but Taylor Swift's partnership with UPS around the launch of her Reputation album was top notch. I think we can all agree on that. And I mean, obviously the AT&T series that she did that was obviously exclusive to DirecTV. Yes. I think was was fantastic, too. Right. They're just playing to each other's strengths and highlighting things that are fully authentic about both brand and artist.
Starting point is 00:22:33 I think when you look at AT&T, it's a story and history about dependability and a way to actually spread a message very quickly. And that's a similar thing with Taylor Swift's music. That's why we're really excited to be partnering with such a powerhouse artist. Right. Is there something wrong with connecting people? I'm sorry. I certainly don't think so. Is there something wrong with-
Starting point is 00:22:50 Connecting our world? Yeah. But in a room, there are people spouting these same exact scripts and meaning it. Yeah. They're genuinely convincing that this is just going to be so great. Well, it's just like at a certain point when your job is basically built off of like, how do I extract as much revenue out of something like yeah it's not even you just have to say words that that really the truth is how the fuck do we make a ton of fucking money out of this but let's use these
Starting point is 00:23:14 other marketing terms to whatever yeah i wonder like after we're out of this era like how how much that is gonna taint like the people who are famous now like i think about jay-z who you know just had this nfl thing but he's always been like the like arch capitalist who like you know is making it work and aligning himself with huge brands and like will, because this period of American culture is marked by, uh, the advertising industry, just infiltrating literally every person's like entire existence and brain. Like, will we look back on Jay-Z and be like,
Starting point is 00:23:59 man, that was, that dude was like the same way we kind of look back on Jordan and are like, he kind of like, there's something like that. We would somehow get what he's doing. No, no.
Starting point is 00:24:11 That, that it would be like diminished because he is so like, I don't know. Yeah. I don't know. I mean, look, as I sit here on my Casper mattress,
Starting point is 00:24:21 uh, by Amazon, uh, brought to you by everything else. Did you get that mail to you through stamps.com? You went to me and I got my me undies on, but that's, what's funny too. Like even thinking about this show, right? Like that we are also part of this machine too,
Starting point is 00:24:37 where you have advertising and things like that. I think the one benefit is like, we have the ability to say yes or no to certain things right and that and also we've never had a thing it's like look if you do something with this you gotta knock off the political you gotta knock off the anti-corporate shit right it's like i don't know dude it's kind of part of the whole deal hey but i can't wait to sell the fuck out man yeah i'm like there's like something terrible happens in the news i'm like i, I don't know, man, Joe Biden. I think we need to go easy on my man. He's done a lot.
Starting point is 00:25:07 I used to think that someone who eschewed all of it, abstained, didn't, you know, had a library card and that was it. Didn't go on the online at all. Didn't even have an email account. Maybe the future will progress to a level where all of us are in a room and VR helmets.
Starting point is 00:25:23 And then we hologram ourselves in a bubble out into the forest. And we see this person that we like went to high school with and we're above them and they look up rubbing sticks together. They're all dirty. I'd be like, get away. And we'd be like, what are you doing, man? Everyone's having fun in there.
Starting point is 00:25:38 Getting your bod. Yeah. They'd be like, get away. And then something would pop up in our bubble. It's like to access more of this experience. Right. Go to Grubhub. You have to take a survey and like okay anyway what were you saying man but then i also think that so in that situation that person's alone their life maybe maybe they should have just joined the hive and been a part of the whole grid system yeah then i think it won't be that much of a stretch for ai to catalog and database everything ever said and even recognize it through voice or characteristics of speech pattern to then have a miles database where everything you've ever said.
Starting point is 00:26:15 So if you in any way try to publicly go out and say, I don't think I've ever spoken out against that. And then pull up instantly. Accountability algorithm. I mean, Twitter already does that. against that and then pull up instantly yeah accountability algorithm i mean twitter already does that so yeah in a way when somebody gets enough attention they're just like okay let's go command f yeah so then the algorithm the bigger system at large ai as we know it learning from that learning oh this is how humans did it this is how they search just applying those exact same things but even like segments from a podcast that you did that, all those bites are there.
Starting point is 00:26:48 They exist. So it wasn't even have to be typed. It's everything you've ever said that is in the digital space. Yeah, man, I'll fuck up my AI created self. If they try and do that shit, watch.
Starting point is 00:27:00 Whoa, boy, I've been doing a lot of fake searches to throw the algorithm off though. Yeah. Nice. You got to stay ahead of them. searches to throw the algorithm off, though. Nice. You got to stay ahead of them. The documentaries are going to be good, though. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:09 Because there's going to be so much material on everyone. Oh, God, yeah. That's true. Like, nobody's made that documentary that's, like, post-iPhone, where it's just like, yeah, so this person, we have literally everything that's ever happened to them because they were shooting it all. Do you think that could be the future of, like like mosques and mausoleums and things that, you know, they already have picture frames now that are, you know, can display multiple pictures.
Starting point is 00:27:31 You go up and like press your thumb and it just runs through their whole life. Videos. Right. So you just walk through a mosque and like, cool. And go to the next one. Oh, that's a cool life. You're like, wow, this person's in Vegas a lot. A lot.

I mean, we all saw it.
Starting point is 00:36:23 For one, Justin Timberlake. We all saw it. We looked at the video. Justin Timberlake. We all saw it. We looked at the video. Justin Timberlake, he's shooting a film, or at the time was in New Orleans, and was hand-holding with his co-star. And he had the vibes that he was grabbing her hand, she was touching his leg. He had those eyes where they're very drunk, and you're like, the DVR stopped recording a few hours ago, so don't know what you know if you know you're
Starting point is 00:36:47 doing here and it was like we were speculating is this what's happening is he is something going on and at the time I thought they were just gonna deny everything but it seems like because of how you know straightforward this video stuff was of him he's now come out and also because rumors of him cheating like a constant theme with him it seems like um he came out with this statement he says i stay away from gossip as much as i can but for my family i feel it is important to address recent rumors that are hurting the people i love a few weeks ago i displayed a strong lapse in judgment but let me be clear nothing happened between me and my co-star i drank way
Starting point is 00:37:25 too much that night and i regret my behavior i should have known better this is not the example i want to set for my son i apologize to my amazing wife and family for putting them through such an embarrassing situation and i'm focused on being the best husband and father i can be i am incredible i'm credibly proud i'm incredible i'm incredible i'm incredibly i'm incredible it's gonna be may uh he yeah he's talking about working on the film blah blah blah but yeah it seems like maybe uh his own wife was probably like what the fuck are you up to uh okay no no just like got confirmation that he was feeling bad about it right because it looked like anybody who's been drunk and maybe got a little too flirtatious
Starting point is 00:38:07 when you shouldn't have been. I saw the exact eyes down to the head tilt of how he was drinking out of his glass. When your chin is down and you're still sipping with your chin down, you've literally forgotten how to drink correctly. This might be just me, but
Starting point is 00:38:23 do you guys have a preconceived notion as to how mega celebrities interact with each other and with the opposite sex outside of their relationship? Because I remember when Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston were together. Yeah. There were these photos of Brad Pitt at a Laker game. It was when he had this long beard. And he was with Catherine Keener. Very similar to these photos. Hand holding, hands on the opposite knee.
Starting point is 00:38:49 I remember at one point there was video. He went to talk to her and he reached up under and like sort of cupped the opposite side of her head. Right. And then leaned in and was talking to her that way. The side of her head. The side of her head. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:01 And I remember seeing that and being like, celebrities are just weird. That's not his wife, but I guess that's how they talk. They have meaningful dinner parties where everyone's doing that. I don't know. I think I'm sure being subjected to the treatment that celebrities get over a certain number of years completely fucks up your idea of like where the ground is and what boundaries are or what is accessible or inaccessible to you. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:25 And I think you just get so used to being inauthentic that even really, not intimate, but authentic type behaviors become sort of rote. You just walk through them like, oh, this is normal, right? Let me grab the side of your face here real quick. Get in here for a comment about this Lakers game. He's like, damn. they are not trapping enough. Damn, Nick Van Exel should stop shooting so much now. Never.
Starting point is 00:39:51 Eddie Jones is looking great. That's a very good point. And yeah, I'm sure it's got to be hard for Brad, you know, as somebody who just everybody he's interacted with for the past, what, 40, 30 years. Yeah, it's probably like you're the hottest dude ever. It's just like begging like with their entire being for him to grab the side of their face. Right, right, right.
Starting point is 00:40:16 Like, I will leave my husband right now for you. Just grab the side of my face. Yeah. I will leave my wife right now for you. I will leave my podcast for you, Brad. That is a direct quote from what i said shouted at his window when he was driving by that's how you lost that job at that hotel uh let's talk about uh the mental health industry is speaking up about their thoughts
Starting point is 00:40:38 yeah um what's going on with the president what what what do they think well there there's a petition that came out that was signed by 350 different psychologists uh mental health experts that are really saying please consider what is actually happening to him right now from our perspective because the impeachment uh proceedings seem to be ramping up his like sort of erratic behavior. The first one or one of the first lines says we are speaking out at this time because we are convinced that as the time of possible impeachment approaches, Donald Trump has the real potential to become ever more dangerous, a threat to the safety of our nation. And this is from Drs. Bandy Lee, who's a Yale psychiatrist, Gerald Post, a former CIA profiler and who's also a psychologist, and John Zinner,
Starting point is 00:41:26 a psychiatrist at George Washington University. They're like the big names on there. And there are many others. But the things that they're saying that they're worried about was, quote, what makes Donald Trump so dangerous is the brittleness of his sense of worth. Any slight or criticism is experienced as a humiliation and degradation to cope with the resultant hollow and empty feeling. He reacts with what is referred to as narcissistic rage. He is unable to take responsibility for any error, mistake or failing. His default in that situation is to blame others and to attack the perceived source of his humiliation. These attacks of narcissistic rage can be brutal and destructive.
Starting point is 00:42:00 And they're saying like they're willing to testify to like give more texture to what they're talking about or more detail. And they say, we implore Congress to take these danger signs seriously and to constrain his destructive impulses. We and many others are available to give important, relevant recommendations, blah, blah, blah. So are they suggesting that the Democrats pump the brakes on the impeachment inquiry? I don't know what it is. I'm not sure if they, I don't know if they think it should, maybe it'll bolster the reasons why he may need to be removed from
Starting point is 00:42:31 office. It's a weird thing, because, A, like, you know, a lot of mental health professionals are like, I'm gonna, I've not actually treated this person, so I don't want to go out there and be like, this is what I'm seeing. But I think for them, they're like, based on what we know, and then the countless accounts from people who work in there, like with his slurred speech and ability to remember things. It's like and I think just from comparing video from even 2016 and fucking 2017 right now, there are moments where you're like, it's definitely the breaks are being depressed.
Starting point is 00:43:03 Right. A bit. Yeah. you're like it's definitely the breaks are being depressed right a bit yeah i mean when i saw that this was happening i assumed that that was going to be what they were talking about was just like slurred speech and stuff but the stuff that they're talking about the narcissistic rage is all stuff that's been pretty obvious to me since before the election you know right right that's like how he's always operated i think before because the language we've all been using is like he's so insecure right and he's being so petty and he's being so reckless yeah and they're sort of like no when
Starting point is 00:43:34 you actually categorize like how what the pattern is someone holds him accountable or there's a perceived humiliation goes after that person relies on absolutely like debunked theories conspiracy theories or will just lie about things they're like this is a we see this in a certain type of person yeah i mean i don't know to me it's like i it's so apparent to people i don't i don't necessarily need 350 mental health actions to be like right i think something's wrong i'm like yeah i mean this is yeah this is why i've always thought his presidency was so terrifying was because he seemed so unstable and impulsive and just easy to have his sense of self-worth uh threatened uh fortunately he's like not
Starting point is 00:44:21 taken that sort of rage to the international level, but that's when it gets really scary to me. Storming off from the NATO gathering was probably the first step in that. Listen, you motherfuckers. If the next thing is we're actually pulling out of NATO, that's when you're going to be like, hold the fuck on. No, no, no, no. Well, like when Jim Jordan and all these guys go,
Starting point is 00:44:45 they're just mad. They're mad because of 2016. Okay, that's what this whole thing is about. As if like a sterling high character individual was put in place and people were just mad about that. But there was a very cautious like, oh fuck, what's this guy going to do? Because he says all this crazy shit
Starting point is 00:45:02 and then when he exhibits that behavior as the president, people like, OK, our fears were confirmed. We should start circling around this a little. Yeah. Well, it's like they're and they have such a terrible end game they're going towards or like, you know, for the Republicans, they can't be critical because his his base will just vaporize them like at the polls or that he'll they'll invite the wrath of the president, which none of them want. So like they're in this space where like they can't even they just have to be like, yeah, this is fine.
Starting point is 00:45:31 And we're maybe projecting the things we felt about Barack Obama, where we were just like, we don't like this guy. And that's and we don't we don't we don't we reject the result of this election. So we're going to be we'll obstruct and things like that but yeah it's uh you know it's a slippery slope yeah uh so one thing that that might lead to uh judge napolitano the fox news legal expert isn't it crazy just sorry to interrupt but that he's on there all the time because almost every story that he's attached to is him pushing back and disagreeing with the fox yeah yeah well i think it's their one good – I mean, not good, but he's been their main legal analyst forever.
Starting point is 00:46:09 Right. He was like a New Jersey Superior Court judge. You know, the heights of the legal system. Right. Shout out to New Jersey. But yeah, because of – I don't know. It is – I think maybe they know it's good to have him there because he's slightly keeping it somewhat reality based.
Starting point is 00:46:26 But when you look at when it turns to the opinion hours at night, none of them want to talk about him or their guests will come after him. Or I think Tucker Carlson even went after him. So, yeah. Well, so he thinks that Trump might testify himself. In the Senate trial. At the Senate trial. Which would be. That would be something.
Starting point is 00:46:47 I mean, he probably also thinks he's going to turn over his tax documents. And to me, that just seems so improbable. I would put it just as an outsider with no, no, I would put the odds of that happening at less than 0.1%. You'd think because people on his team would be like, you're going to self-own up there. You will incriminate yourself. You will purge yourself. It's going to be bad. And that's when you even look at it. You don't even have a president who could go and coherently lie for 10 minutes or an hour. But then the bigger part of the ego aspect of that is him being like, I don't have to do this shit. I'm above that. I don't have to do this shit.
Starting point is 00:47:25 I'm above that. I don't need to answer to any of you. I'm your boss. Well, the thing is he was recently tweeting after Nancy Pelosi was like, you know, she told Jerry Nadler and Adam Schiff to move forward with drafting articles of impeachment. He was like, let's just get it over with then. Let's do it. If you're going to impeach me, let's do it. I'm not fucking afraid of you.
Starting point is 00:47:43 They kept having to throw their bodies in front of him going and talking to muller a lot yeah rather than the so i mean that's where you see the people around him know that this is not a good idea but he increasingly and throughout his presidency has been able to just override the people around him and be like you know it, it's my gut. I rule by the seat of my pants. Yeah. When you think of his ego, though, I could see that the one part that entertains the idea that it is possible is that his ego would not allow someone else to testify on his behalf.
Starting point is 00:48:17 Because what Napolitano is saying is, quote, if you go to a Senate trial, who testifies on behalf of the president? Himself. Himself. And then someone said, you believe that could happen? I do. I think it will be the most dramatic legal political event in the history of our era. It would be really rewarding.
Starting point is 00:48:39 Even if nothing came of it, just to watch. I think we've all gotten to a point where we like to have this weird rage of i knew i was right about that and then nothing comes of it and then you're like well but i still feel like everyone's got their own facts so everyone's walking around with that feeling and the way i saw it i've got it i had it yeah right yeah i mean he loves a dramatic moment though do people in the Fox News bubble think the same thing? Are they like, oh, well, once he gets up there, we'll feel vindicated. That's what they'll say on TV, because that has to be the narrative. But do you think that because just in this universe where we're all walking around with our own version of the truth,
Starting point is 00:49:22 do you think that there's part of them that still suspects like this guy is completely full of shit? And because that, that is the thing you always hear when someone's like, how could you support this guy? They're like, well, he,
Starting point is 00:49:35 you can't take what he says seriously. You have to just look at what he does and things like that. Well, because if you're honest and someone says, can you take this guy serious? Or what do you think about this guy? You can't say the second you go, man, he's all over the place. Right. Then you go, why would you support him?
Starting point is 00:49:51 Right. And then you're like, well, and then you have to sort of give up the ghost like, well, he's a useful idiot. Right. Because he's, you know, deregulating the fuck out of everything like Wall Street. There are no breaks on Wall Street right now. There's no protections for the environment right now. There are certain industries that are loving it in terms of their business. And I think that's why they have to say stuff like, you know, we understand he's polarizing,
Starting point is 00:50:15 but in the back of their minds, they have just cash boners. And they're like, this cash though. It's the name of our production company, right? Cash boners. Cash boners. Cash Boners. Let's take a quick look at the Democratic primary. There's been a couple good polls.
Starting point is 00:50:33 And these are polls that come from within the Kamala Harris campaign. Yeah, hers specifically for California voters, yeah. Yeah, that Bernie Sanders is sort of on an upward trend and most other people are on a downward. Yeah, it seems like September was a huge dip for people like Elizabeth Warren and Joe Biden. Buttigieg and Bernie are the only people with a little bit of upward movement. But in California, of likely primary voters, Bernie Sanders has overtaken Elizabeth Warren. Twenty four percent of likely voters would vote for him. And look, a lot of delegates in California. It seems like Mayor Pete is starting to eat a little bit into the Biden-Warren
Starting point is 00:51:16 support. Yeah. When you consider that they're going down and he's going up, there's got to be a little bit of back and forth. And I think also with Bloomberg hopping in too, he's nibbling a little bit away considering his name recognition. Yeah. I wonder how many people are like, the channel? Yeah, I'll vote for him. I'll vote for the channel. Right. Well, is CNN going to run?
Starting point is 00:51:38 Yeah. I don't really watch Bloomberg. I'm more of an MSNBC guy. It's Bloomberg, I'm more of an MSNBC guy. And then there's a poll with college kids where Biden was leading among this group in April. And then Warren. And then Warren. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:56 And now Sanders has the lead. It's just asking, you know, who would you vote for to all likely to vote college age kids? i think it was like 1300 yeah somewhere around there uh so sanders got 22 trump got 17 percent uh warren 15 biden 12 yang 9 uh buddha judge 8. so uh i mean hey dude debt forgiveness i'll line i would line up too yeah bernie and i'm curious to know what the issues are like how many kids are obviously the student loan stuff must weigh heavy on every college student because they're like i'm gonna walk out into the real world with a boulder crushing my spine of debt right uh and how many people you know are like woke and trying to you know bring the power back to the workers yeah just uh i i checked the
Starting point is 00:52:45 front page of you know cnn new york times to see if anybody was talking about this stuff and maybe these polls aren't like that relevant i mean the axios the the college one is from axios so that's pretty mainstream uh and cnn uh had a bernie sanders, and that headline was, Analysis, Hillary Clinton destroyed Bernie Sanders in her Howard Stern interview. What? So. When? Face. She was on Howard Stern recently?
Starting point is 00:53:12 Yeah, she was on Howard Stern recently and just tore that ass up. Like, yeah, exactly. They're like, hey, Bernie got dunked on by an irrelevant person. Yeah. It will be interesting to see, exactly. They're like, hey, Bernie got dunked on by an irrelevant person. Yeah. It will be interesting to see, though. You know, this is going to be a good test of the Bernie blindness subreddits theory of the case that the mainstream media is ignoring him. Because, I mean, if he starts like taking up to being tied for first or in the running for first, like it would be strange for them not to cover that. Yeah. But I think that's where you'd really see that full blown like corporate bias where it's like, dude, shut the fuck up about this guy. He's about to eat into my yacht money.
Starting point is 00:53:54 Yeah. They always said that was why the movie Idiocracy didn't do better. You know, they go after Pepsi and Fox News and all these giant companies and then try to get ad space to promote the movie. And they're like, we're good. Yeah. Good luck. I'm sorry, what's the film about? Oh, no. Speaking of Hillary Clinton that also seemed to miss a lot of mainstream news coverage
Starting point is 00:54:14 was the revelation from the security expert on Jeffrey Epstein's baby cloning Dick Ranch in New Mexico. Oh, like where he was trying to impregnate all these women. Trying to impregnate like a continent of women to, and also have his dick frozen. Wouldn't it be great if we had the AI software in place there where something was listening in those moments? Because we hear talks about like the MIT people who would go or Bill Gates there and they would leave going,
Starting point is 00:54:44 he's got some weird ideas. Yeah, right, right. Like, what those were, yeah. He says he should impregnate every 14-year-old girl on the planet, but the mashed potatoes were exquisite. was brought in by longstanding ranch manager Bryce Gordon to improve the security and set up a camera system at the main house, as well as the cowboy village. This is something I didn't realize. Jeffrey Epstein's ranch had like an Epcot attraction. Yeah, like it had an Epcot attraction of like Old West.
Starting point is 00:55:24 Old West. Old pedophile prospector? Yeah. Like it had an Epcot attraction of like Old West. Old West. Old Pedophile Prospector? Yeah. Those were the good old days. I'm Dusty Sam and you're square in the middle of Western Village.
Starting point is 00:55:33 It's like, this is a weird fucking place. I was saying how cool the replica houses were. This is a quote from the guy who's... Oh, I was gonna say, wait, what?
Starting point is 00:55:42 Jared Kellogg was new and he said, I was saying how cool the replica houses were, and the manager of the ranch said, yeah, they're built for guests. It's really cool. The Clintons come out and hang out with Epstein. And then he went on to say
Starting point is 00:55:57 that they would hang out with him at least once a year at the ranch, every year after Clinton left office. People that are good friends in Los Angeles don't see each other once a year. Once a year, exactly. Living in the same city and are not so busy having just been the president. Rave, I see you more than my family. That's legitimately true.
Starting point is 00:56:22 Yeah, that's like LA style. I'm like, I don't know. They live on the west side. I can't be talking out there. Yeah, that's like LA style. I'm like, I don't know. They live on the west side. I can't be driving out there. No, the west side is off limits. What? I just moved from the west side. I just had to make new friends.
Starting point is 00:56:34 Yeah. Just cut off all ties. Sorry, I can't talk to you anymore. I'm moving east. Oh, my God. Is everything okay? And let's talk real quickly about Nancy Pelosi. She was having a press conference talking about plans to impeach,
Starting point is 00:56:52 where things were going with the impeachment inquiry. And a reporter from Sinclair Media, as she was leaving, asked her, do you hate the president, Ms. Pelosi? Yeah. And she just kind of went off on him. Go off, Catholic queen. She came back around and she's like, as a Catholic, I resent that kind of language. I was raised with love in my heart and a blind, willful denial of children being molested.
Starting point is 00:57:22 I'll never acknowledge. of children being molested. I'll never acknowledge. I will tell women of color who are new to the Congress to get in line. But I do not have hate in my heart. She was like, I pray for the president, if anything. I do not hate him, blah, blah, blah. And she's like, don't mess with me on that.
Starting point is 00:57:39 And then just stomped, like walked off. It was kind of, if it wasn't well orchestrated or like if she hadn't had a plan to do that, it was pretty impressive. I think if she looked like Meryl Streep, everyone would acknowledge that she's such a badass. Yeah. But unfortunately, she does have, and this is unfair and it seems so critical to say, but she looks like a stereotypical california older woman right very botox and pulled she's not even really blinking anymore right so i think his group even if what she says is exactly how they feel there's this inherent bias by looking at her oh yeah oh has like the physical presence of what they would consider like, like if an algorithm created a liberal woman.
Starting point is 00:58:26 And what is she in her seventies? That that's what would come out. Right. Absolutely. So they don't really hear her words. Cause I, I think this is just a theory I've been working on. No, I believe it. We're so, we're so, we don't even listen to shit anymore with like, what's it look?
Starting point is 00:58:39 What is the face? What is the gender? What is the race? What is everything? It's like, yeah, but i think it was uh yeah she she did a very good job though too because the whole strategy that question was born out of representative collins uh in the judiciary committee saying like the democrats are doing this because they hate the president yeah right that they have hate in their hearts
Starting point is 00:59:01 because they they can't actually if you, they'll never actually deny what the president did. So they'll be like, well, it's because they hate the president. They hate America. They hate Constitution. Oh, wait, the Constitution is against us? Well, then they hate George Washington. I'm a necromancer. Got to go.
Starting point is 00:59:16 It was kind of weird that she was so after that guy where essentially what he was doing was giving her a layup to just say, no, no, we don't hate him. I'm Catholic. Love everybody. And instead, she was like, you son of a bitch. How dare you come after me?
Starting point is 00:59:31 Yeah, yeah. I mean, he was clearly trying to create... Well, he was being so like, well, it's a valid question. Right. It's a valid...
Starting point is 00:59:38 I mean, that's what he said. That's what I was thinking. It's like, dude, that's fine. I'm reading my transcripts. They said you raped dinosaur ghosts. Any truth to that? It's like, what? You's fine. I'm reading my transcripts. They said you raped dinosaur ghosts. Any truth to that? It's like, what?
Starting point is 00:59:46 You can't answer a simple yes or no? And then they said, then right after that, Trump tweeted out, it was like, oh, it looked like Nancy Pelosi had a nervous fit. What? A nervous fit? Because she was, I don't know, like whatever. Fucking Jeffrey Epstein's old Westtown. She's suffering from nervous fits.
Starting point is 01:00:05 Enter some lithium and laudanum. Yeah. All right. We're going to take another quick break. We will be right back. When you think of Mexican culture, you think of avocado, mariachi, delicious cuisine, and of course, lucha libre.

Sword Quest. This wasn't just a new game. Atari promised $150,000 in prizes to four finalists. But the prizes disappeared.

On my podcast, Table for Two, we have unforgettable lunch after unforgettable lunch with the best guest you could possibly ask for. People like David Duchovny. You know, New Yorkers have a reputation of being very tough, but it's not. It's not that way at all. They're very accepting. Jeff Goldblum.
Starting point is 01:07:17 Are you saying secret fries? Secret fries. What? That's what you're saying? Yeah. And Kristen Wiig. I just became so aware that I'm such a loud chewer. My husband's just like, sometimes I'll be eating and he'll just be looking at me. I'm like, I'm just eating.

Starting point is 01:08:04 And we're back. get her ether rag uh and they still do that what was that a thing for like huffing ether yeah that's like an old to put you under basically yeah yeah just got you you got tuberculosis tired of coughing you got tuberculosis Tuberculosis? Maybe you better sleep today. Got tuberculosis. Rub this sage on your neck. And also huff this ether rag. Damn. Shout out to anybody huffing ether rags. Old school.
Starting point is 01:08:35 It was only a matter of time, you guys, till McDonald's came out of their scientist's scientific lab kitchen with a chicken sandwich. Oh, yeah. I think earlier this year we were talking about how franchise owners at McDonald's were like, we're getting fucking killed by Chick-fil-A and this chicken sandwich. We got nothing. People fucking hate rat meat burgers.
Starting point is 01:09:01 We need the chicken. And now they have a, this is only in a very limited number of markets. So if you're in Knoxville, Tennekee, or Houston, Texas, and you're psyching, let us know. I actually want to know. They have the southern style buttermilk crispy chicken sandwich.
Starting point is 01:09:18 Man, they really, it's everything. It's hint of dill. They've got a pickle on it. They buttered the bun. They know what they're doing. They know what they're doing. They know what they're doing. They're trying to come after that Chick-fil-A market, and I need to know how bad or good it is. I mean, so they're going to do this locally.
Starting point is 01:09:35 I'll be interested to see if it's one of those things, like with Popeye's, where they roll it out locally because they can't afford to make the sandwich as good as it needs to be on a massive scale. Yeah, I don't know. I'm trying to remember the last time McDonald's made something that was new. And I was like, hey, you know what? I do remember when they made something clever. They had such a weird hardline stance at times that they always cave in on.
Starting point is 01:10:03 They go, we've had this menu for 50 years and we'll never have salads. People want salads? Here's 15 salads. Okay, in a cup though. It's a McSalad shaker. McSalad shaker. What?
Starting point is 01:10:14 Just think of it as a milkshake. Yeah, it's like, no, fool. It's a bunch of old iceberg in a plastic cup. Fuck out of here. With apples and when they put that salad
Starting point is 01:10:22 on the menu, they became America's largest purchaser of apples. Oh, like their little harvest-y salad or whatever they had? Yeah, they basically created a – doubled the apple industry. I'd love to see the meeting when the guy came in, or I assume it's a guy. The CEO of McDonald's comes in like, all right, we're doing it. They've complained long enough.
Starting point is 01:10:40 We're going to make breakfast all the time. Sick of having people, their entire YouTube streams of comics just laying into the fact that we don't serve breakfast all day. So we're doing it. And then everyone went, this guy, our forefathers wanted us to keep the same menu. And then they changed it. Breakfast should be eaten in the morning. If there's like McDonald's Constitution originalists who are like, they just ripped it up.
Starting point is 01:11:06 We're new and hip now. You're an expansionist. And no one cared. There were maybe a couple of tweets that were like, thanks. But it wasn't like people. Oh, I fucking started levitating when they brought in all day breakfast. I felt great too. I felt like this is phenomenal.
Starting point is 01:11:24 I've ceased to eat the daytime food there. I'll eat the fries and the occasional nuggies. Chicky nuggies. Don't eat the burgers really. Unless I'm feeling really wacky and high. But usually I'm just eating a bunch of sausage McMuffins with egg.
Starting point is 01:11:40 Okay. I don't think you're alone in that. And then when they doubled it up Woo boy R.I.P. Miles' arteries And the body When you could put like two sausage patties It was like Behemoth style stacker
Starting point is 01:11:56 Yeah They also are I saw a billboard That showed that they're Selling breakfast sandwiches with chicken on it. No, that's a new thing with fried chicken, chicken breasts. Oh, gosh, it just feels a little wrong to put an egg on the chicken. Let's give chickens a little break.
Starting point is 01:12:18 Yeah, and they even drew attention to the fact that it was like... Oh, it's like a chicken biscuit? Yeah, it's like a chicken biscuit. Oh, there's no egg. No egg. But the advertisement I saw for it was like, here's a yolk of an idea or something like that. Or like, this breakfast sandwich is no yolk.
Starting point is 01:12:37 And it was like chicken without the egg, but with the breakfast sandwich bread part. And yeah. The biscuit. The biscuit. Muffin. It's funny though. The McGriddle.
Starting point is 01:12:50 Even though I'm like, oh, that's cool. One of my favorite Japanese dishes is called Oyako Donburi. And Oya means parent and Ko means child, like the kanji thing. So it's literally parent and child rice bowl and it's eggs and chicken. So I'm like, what the fuck am I talking about? Like we have a dish that's like, man, fuck this whole family rice bowl and it's eggs and chicken so i'm like what the fuck i'm talking about like we have a dish that's like man fuck this whole family rice right i want to make sure they came from the same blood exactly uh all right let's talk star wars stuff david are you a star wars guy no i uh i don't live in a great universe in that i I think the Beatles are fine. I think Star Wars is fine.
Starting point is 01:13:26 Sure. And comic books the same way. Everyone running around so elated and over the moon about all these things. I just feel like. What am I missing? Yeah, I got dropped on the wrong planet or something. What does get you running around? Lots of stuff.
Starting point is 01:13:41 Everything else gets me up to like a seven. But everyone else with those things is at like an 11. But do you get at an 11 for anything? I don't know that it's in my nature. Oh, man. I mean, that answer tells you. Yeah. I don't know that it's in my nature.
Starting point is 01:13:54 To get to an 11? It's not an answer you get from somebody who goes to 11. No, no, no. Have I ever like waited in line for something? I don't think I have. I find it to be illogical. Most scales are to 10. To go to 11 would just be superfluous.
Starting point is 01:14:11 Right, that's how I feel. But I did try to watch them because I like to relate to humans. I want to be able to talk. Oh, yeah. Okay, Dr. Manhattan. I like to relate to humans. Hold on, man.
Starting point is 01:14:22 This guy's talking all this shit about AI and algorithms. How do I know he's not a fucking algorithm? That's true. Robot trying to throw us off the set. Watch me bleed. Oh my God. His blood is white. Wait, nine volt batteries are coming out.
Starting point is 01:14:33 Oh, it's like that fluid like Bishop in Alien. Yeah, exactly. This is red blood. This is regular blood. It's regular blood. It's unleaded. It's regular human blood here, fellas. I watched Rogue One
Starting point is 01:14:46 or I watched maybe the Last Jedi Rogue One I just had had enough of the fucking Death Star
Starting point is 01:14:54 and that same storyline over and over I was so sick of it that they lost me and I've gracefully bowed out I have
Starting point is 01:15:01 no contempt necessarily other than it feels like people are, they sailed and kept right on with it. The Mandalore, as if, again, going to marketing and all that, no one, and people were aware of it
Starting point is 01:15:13 that, boy, Star Wars will make as much of this shit as we will buy and they don't really care about the quality. They would make 10 a year if it would make a billion dollars each time. And people are like, we'll take it. Well, now, yeah, Bob Iger, the head of Disney, was like, we're slowing down the Disney shit. Because they realized.
Starting point is 01:15:29 The Star Wars shit? Oh, yeah. What did I say? The Disney shit? The Disney shit. Yeah, the Star Wars stuff. Because they realized people are getting fatigued a little bit. Not that, like, the enthusiasm is dying down.
Starting point is 01:15:37 But they saw, like, with the Han Solo movie and other things. They're like, I think we're cutting them too many pieces. Right. And, like, we can't build that sort of critical mass to like release every time we put something out which i think is a good idea yeah but i agree the expansion continues because there's a new game show on disney plus that's coming out uh that's called what the fuck is it called legends of the jedi fuck temple uh i'm jedi no it's called the Jedi temp Star Wars Jedi Temple Challenge and basically it reads like legends of the hidden temple that
Starting point is 01:16:13 Nickelodeon show which I I would get to an 11 for yeah honest here yeah if they remade legends of the hidden temple with like modern video game yeah whatever it is I mean that shit was so bad yeah whoa my god yeah let there were some games in there well there was the one game where that you went in a video game that was another one that's the one that i still watch you oh nick arcade that was the one where you in the whack oh that wasn't legends of the hidden temple no that's like the one that was like old mac and shit and they were like the blue barracudas and shit like that yeah blue barracudas a i was thinking nick arcade
Starting point is 01:16:45 i think i can still watch videos of that because it's it captures my childhood imagination but this game is i don't know essentially same thing set in a galaxy far far away and will test young contestants abilities in the core jedi principles of strength knowledge and bravery as they face thrilling and fun obstacles in an attempt to achieve the rank of Jedi Knight. Being hosted by, what's his name? The dude who played Jar Jar Binks. Oh, really? I'm at best.
Starting point is 01:17:12 Yeah, I'm at best. Great guy. Yeah. Love on that. That's awesome. And one of the co-hosts is a hilarious humanoid droid companion voiced by Mary Holland. Oh, that's awesome. Which will be funny. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:25 But you'd think, yeah, why they got to reduce her to a droid though? You know what I mean? Right. I guess it's Star Wars. Right. Yeah. But there was an article I was reading about like how like we're constantly making women like sort of these female energies like into robots.
Starting point is 01:17:38 And like how that's like being like, are we, is this the new thing we're doing? It's like, reduce it to a robot. Yeah. Who's the we in this situation? Miles. Yeah. Me and the we in this situation? Miles on the line. Yeah, me and the development executives at Warner Brothers. I thought you were saying it was dudes. Like, all dudes doing this.
Starting point is 01:17:52 Oh, no. And I think just in general, like, a lot of the, like, they talk about Darcy Carden's character in a good place. Like, we're seeing more and more of, like, these sort of Siri-type characters coming out that are just sort of like, they're, they typically played more by women or they're there. They come off as feminine. Is that a cross-cultural like is the Siri or the Alexa in other countries, like in Japan, a woman's voice or do you think so?
Starting point is 01:18:21 Yeah, but I think, but now there are so many ways, you know, you can make Siri any voice you want now. Right. It's up to you, but the default is the default. Yeah. But I think, but now there are so many ways, you know, you can make Siri any voice you want now. Right. It's up to you. But the default is.
Starting point is 01:18:27 But it's the default. Yeah. Do you think some of that comes from no matter how much everyone talked to you when you were in the womb? Your mom. 100%. Your mom talked to you more. Yeah. The voice you've heard more than anything.
Starting point is 01:18:38 Your mom. Yeah. Your mom said nothing to you? Right. No, she was. Give a quiet out there. She took a vow of silence. To make sure I came out as balanced as possible. Yeah. It was only white noise. No, she was- Give a quiet dub there. She took a vow of silence to make sure I came out
Starting point is 01:18:45 as balanced as possible. Yeah. It was only white noise. No, I don't know. Yeah. Well, I think obviously there's just, there's a connection,
Starting point is 01:18:53 I think, biologically in that sense. But I don't know. There's probably something about mothering in there that we just- Because it has to be soothing. If it was like,
Starting point is 01:19:01 um, that album was released in 1988 if it had that close go on if it was some dude i'll be like ah right i don't know what it is i think we just uh we're we live in a patriarchy so it would bother you if it was a dude not that it would bother me i'm michael strahan's voice oh that wouldhan's voice? Oh, that would be kind of dope. That would be kind of tight. Does he have a lisp? He kind of has a little bit of a lisp.
Starting point is 01:19:30 Well, they have that for a bit with navigation systems. They're using Morgan Freeman. I think you get Snoop. You get a few people that could guide you around. I remember one of the times for a Terminator, one of them on Waze, it could be Arnold Schwarzenegger. Right. I did that. For sure. I was just laughing. He's like, you're going to turn right. terminator or one of them on ways it could be arnold schwarzenegger right i did that yeah sure
Starting point is 01:19:45 i was just laughing he's like you're gonna turn right but it couldn't have didn't have any of the street names so i was like in 300 feet right you're gonna stop on that one you're gonna go yeah another piece of star wars ephemera uh or maybe not. Maybe it's the best thing Star Wars has ever produced. A new ride is opening in Galaxy's Edge, their Disney theme park. Yeah. That is the one that people have been talking about since the idea of a Star Wars themed part of the park came up. This is called Rise of the Resistance.
Starting point is 01:20:23 It opened to the public yesterday, and the details, they say it's basically four different types of rides fused together. It's like a rollercoaster, but then you are also interacting with live actors
Starting point is 01:20:39 who are playing stormtroopers and different characters, so it's got a haunted house house Westworld vibe to it. Right up my alley. Hey. Welcome. Your prospector. What the fuck are you doing here?
Starting point is 01:20:55 I don't know. This review kind of spoils some of the details, but it's like a four act story. Takes 18 minutes to complete. Yeah. Which is pretty... I'm a Stormtrooper actor, and I have to reboot every 18 minutes? You go, where are we headed, guys? I think they probably have multiple.
Starting point is 01:21:13 Go left! All right, slugger! And then take off. I wonder how long it'll take before you see some of those Stormtrooper actors start phoning in their job. They're like, man, I've been doing this shit for fucking three years. It would... I can't imagine the worst hell. Just throws his blaster at the crowd like i'll fucking quit right 30th time and none of you assholes tip fuck all of you yeah i have a name i'm just not tk423
Starting point is 01:21:35 at one point a storm trooper's addressing you and you look to the right and there's 50 storm troopers lined up and like they're actually there but i think they're animatronics but they have like little movements built in that give you so that it makes you think like oh those are actually people standing there like it it gives see and then they're taking jobs from actors that's real that's true they're taking our fucking jobs people start fucking fucking up the robotics kick his ass but that goes back to the selling out conversation that level of bottom end selling out or selling yourself right say that ai car the automated cars are taken over and uber app's been downloaded like 50 million times right
Starting point is 01:22:23 so that's roughly 50 million, say conservatively 35 million people that now don't have that as a means of income. And then they go home like, I can't have this job as a storm trooper. I just got to move my elbow a couple of times. Like a couple of inches. And someone goes, hey, that's good for you, man.
Starting point is 01:22:37 You're doing something. Right. That's a terrifying thought that could be extremely real. Well, I think that is somewhat real already. I think, you know, because the gig economy exists because there aren't necessarily like living wages for people in other places and you have to have multiple income streams.
