He is Daddy. Up from the 36 chambers of poop. Oh my God. It's Miles Grant. It's old daddy bastard. Come back. Straight from the, I guess Brooklyn Zoo. I can't, I didn't have the time to improvise or write an AKA.

I'm back from parental leave, paternal leave. I will probably take a little more time later on, but thank you so much for everybody. The blowouts, my God. I thought I was watching Liverpool versus Man United because it was a 7-0 blowout. I think I did hear while you were out that your team's doing really well, right? Top of the league, baby.

Top of the league. Top of the league. I mean, yeah, we're eight points clear right now. How much of your mind was taken up by that versus You know what's funny? We were doing so well. The baby was born. We took fucking L's. And I'm holding the baby

in the hospital and I went, oh my god. I'm like, I thought you were powering us through, and then shit leveled out. I was able to accept my child again, and everything is good, but yeah, I keep telling everybody this. I'm not sure how to speak. I've only been speaking to Her Majesty

and the Geist Child himself, and that is kind of the level of my banter, so bear with me as I get back into it. Although I might just come in on a tent. I don't know. We're all experimenting right now. You sound great. We're so happy to have you back. I'm excited to be back.

I'm very excited to be back. You're greatly missed in all seriousness. I saw all the good combinations and I was like, was like i remember being like oh i'll call in when gabrus is there i didn't yeah i know yeah you were like you had big plans you were like i'll like check in every once in a while yeah like daddy uh man on the street yeah reporting and i was like no you don't do that what are you talking about yeah that comes from someone who's had a child and i'm like in the midst of my, yeah, I think I got the bandwidth for all this.

He did not. He did not. He did not. Miles. Yeah. We are thrilled to be joined for your first episode back by a very special host, executive producer at Big Money Players. Yeah. Responsible for some of the funniest podcasts in the world.

Yeah. Also one of our coworkers. Yeah. world yeah also one of our co-workers yeah because big money players is our sister network so it's weird to be this formal but please welcome the brilliant and talented olivia hello my brothers that's too much oh my goodness i i feel like honored that this is Miles' back from paternity leave in this episode. This could be the worst episode ever. I was going to say the expectations, it could be really high or people are going to be very disappointed by the end of this episode.

Look, Olivia, I'm just relieved that you're the guest and it's not somebody I'm having to get to know uh like from my first episode back like you know we we have a lot of overlapping friends too we even see each other outside of work a lot because of the people we know so it's good to see you and i'm relieved that it's you and i will do my best i was gonna say we definitely have had a lot of overlapping friends and a lot of baby overlap i think when we last saw each other may have been at our friend's baby shower and um of course i had to take i don't know if i ever told you this but i definitely took like a sneaky photo of you sitting i think you were with your wife and then i did like kind of like a back sneak photo and then sent it to the ladies of iheart and I was like celebrity spotting and of course yes of course I did I got celebrity spotting in the way I'll send you the photo but you were like mid-bite into

eating like a macaroni salad yeah yeah yeah that's me and you're like this was drinking all the juice that was meant for the kids yeah this was all meant for kids. They definitely had adult beverages. Housing juice boxes. Yo, this is real shit. If there's juice boxes. Empty juice boxes scattered about. Yeah, I went to my friend's baby's birthday party. I drank all the juice boxes. There's so many juice boxes. To the point that other parents are like, you know, some are for the kids.

There's like adult beverages too. I'm like, I ain't drinking, man. I want these little apple juices. I never had these before. They're so small. Were they always this small? Or is that like part of this new woke? Oh, by the way, Miles, there's been some changes around here.

This new woke shit where they are so worried about sugar. I think so. I mean, I remember when the tiny ones came out. I'm like, that's for babies. Because back in my day day we were sipping like You remember Boku? Boku? That might have been like just a thing

That happened when I was in like second grade No no we didn't They had a juice box That was called Boku That was just like two regular juice boxes Stacked on top of each other I'm sorry. Did Richard Lewis do a fucking commercial?

And Richard Lewis was the spokesperson. And I knew that at seven. I was like, oh, yeah, that's that Richard Lewis juice box. That's definitely not a woke juice box. If you got like prime Richard Lewis going, well, I don't even know what he's saying. I was just going to say stand-up era Richard Lewis being the spokesperson. That is not a woke juice. It goes well with a cigarette.

Yeah, he's out here being like, you know what? I don't even know. I haven't even seen Richard Lewis in a while. I don't even know what he's saying. I had to stop right there. My powers are coming back online. Give me a moment. Who should we get for this child's juice box?

How about the uh dark existentialist comedian uh richard lewis who's like isn't his like whole stand-up thing just being hold let me let me get let me get a screenshot really quick justin i just i have to hear what the how this guy is selling fucking juice he his nickname was like i feel like the like the prince of i i'm gonna get it wrong but it was the prince of mean or the prince of something like he was a burn like burn rooster richard lewis is coming through he's wearing all black and with a massive mullet he's in a darkened room and and this is how he's pitching boku drinks. So I go to a party and I got my choice of Coke or Pepsi.

This isn't right. I want a Boku. A seven-fruit blend Boku. I mean, all this carbonation is very unsettling. I don't want to belch anymore. Belching is for babies. I want to be refreshed naturally, calmly. I mean, it's my undeniable right as a man of the 90s to quench my thirst in my own way.

I want a Boku. The man of the 90s. I need to get quenched. People invite me to a party. I'm bringing my own Boku. a man in the 90s i need to get quench people invite me to a party i'm bringing my own boku boku fruit juice cooler from mccain oh whoa okay i don't need to get dark but when he revealed his boku it looked like a bomb attached to his body i'm like too big richard richard a man of the 90s? What a fucking marketing campaign. Man, I totally associated with when I was seven, but I guess it was the 90s or maybe...

Also, shout out to him. That was one take. There was no one take. Yeah, one take is really hard. He's a fucking professional. He's the best. We got a challenge now for our next ad read. I did a quick Google search

just to look up his nickname, and his nickname was the Prince of Pain. So the Prince of Pain Boku Juice. He's afraid of bubbles? The Prince of Pain thinks carbonation

is too uncomfortable? That's so funny that they steered so hard into being like a juice box for adults that they got Richard Lewis to pitch. Yeah. And that the, that the main hook point is that you want to stop belching. Yeah. It's unsaid.

I'm a man. If you're a man, you know, you hate belching. It's so rude and it's disgusting. That's why I go for juice. Like, huh?

All right. Am I right? Do you do you I go for juice. Like, huh? All right. Am I right, fellas? Do you? Do you? Sophisticate. Anyways, this is what the show is going to be. We're going to do a... I don't know anything that's happened. Yeah. So we're going to do a re-entry briefing for Miles of just like all the important news that he missed. We're going to talk about maybe some news. We might talk about the TikTok trials. We might talk about how Trump is just making bank off of his impending arrest that, again, is something that he told us all

was going to happen. There are more signs that just this whole tech dystopia we live in is fraying. We've got phantom Uber Eats orders just appearing at random on people's front porches. And Google's bard is a mess.

That's the AI thing? Yeah. That's their AI. That's their chat GPT. There's a new chat GPT in the room. And I think it's better at being your racist uncle on Facebook. Oh. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. So it's learned the language of the Facebook. Oh. Yeah.

Yeah. Okay. So it's learned the language of the internet. Yeah. I got like just looking over it. I'm like, this is a racist Ask Jeeves almost. Yeah. Yeah.

This is. Oh, you don't think Ask Jeeves was racist? Yeah. Oh. You saw that. Yeah. True, true. Good point. I remember when I asked Jeeves, it referred to Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King

as basketball players. That's when I was like, sums up with this algorithm. Racist shit, yeah. All right, all of that, plenty more. But first, Olivia, we like to ask our guests, what is something from your search history besides Boku juices that is revealing about for a second i thought i was the guest

you're like oh shit i should oh whoa whoa i'm out okay i'm out of practice go on guest okay so search history i have two ones that are kind of like relevant at the moment right now yesterday i googled non-boring green smoothies just because i was in a mood for a smoothie and i had a lot of spinach but i just didn't want it to be so bland so did a lot of research on some smoothies and i think the key thing is a banana the banana helps with the consistency and like actually gives it that sweet plus you get your potassium and all that makes it creamy yeah and so it made my spinach smoothie much better once i added a banana added some apples to it and i found it to be successful and was really happy with that but then also my other google search while i am paying attention to my reports, I like to Google random things during our research.

Actually, one of my shows that I work on, my mama told me with Langston Kerman and David Borey. I love to go through. I just saw him in The Boys. Yeah. Langston. I was like, I just watched that. Sorry, I'm interrupting. No, go, go.

I was like, Langston. I was like Leonardo Diaprio in that fucking once upon a time in hollywood mean anyway oh my gosh yes and very iconic the boys with langston and i look up a lot of these like black conspiracy theories online and one of them really got me and sorry if this comes off as like toilet like inappropriate talk but just the intake of salt and sodium ruining men's sex drives was one big thing and there's this component that a listener sent in called salt peter or petri salt petri and it's like you can make highly yeah highly concentrated sodium that is fed to a lot of men like people who are participating mostly men who are

participating in the military to reduce their sex drive during boot camp so it's just like these high real or these are conspiracy theories or just something some guy it's conspiracy theories but then but hence the google searches yeah there is such thing as that where it's like salt heaters added to things during boot camp. Still exploring conspiratorial, but it did catch my attention, though. Google Bard is intrigued. I will just say. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ask Google Bard about this.

Ask Google Bard. Yeah. this as google bard yeah and i just like got in a wormhole of just like salt and then salt petre salt peter and just that and then on a more light-hearted note um animals with eyes facing the front because typically animals have their eyes facing sideways if you just google photoshop uh animal eyes facing forward it It's the funniest, creepiest thing ever, but it's great. I promise. This is a...

Okay. I'm telling you. It's just animal eyes facing forward. And people have photoshopped a deer to put the eyes going forward. And I love it.

Some of them look beautiful. Yes, sometimes it works with some animals, but goats look typically really creepy because their eyes are already like their pupils are slitted types, you know, and it's not round. So that comes off

a little bit creepy terrifying yeah the goats are um but i do enjoy the lizard the chameleon ones are really funny yeah oh yeah the lizard ones they look like the like little koopa troopas from the live action mario brothers movie with don leguizamo and bob hoskins and samantha mathis and dennis. And that, so I just said the whole cast guys, I'm still working out what, what if you just kept going? That has the reference to nine 11 again with the twin towers are disappearing at the end.

Yeah. That one. Never forget. This episode is just miles recapping the Mario, the Mario movie. And everyone's like, Oh wait, but there's something inherently because the reason

that animals have their eyes on the side right at least one of the design features is to like look out for predators and so this totally a deer into like a hunter predator like in some ways and it is it's scary i don't like it the one that i was like oh this one's actually cute is the google image search just fucked up and put an actual like big cat in with the search results so i was looking at a tiger one i was like that looked like a tiger to me yeah that's just tiger yeah the shark looks like absolute shit jack my heart broke for you when i saw the shark with its eyes in the front yeah absolute, absolute. Just disgusting. Yeah.

Should be a shame to themselves. I don't like them anymore. What is something that you think is underrated? Is that what we do first? Overrated. Let's go overrated. Overrated. I believe, and I might get some attack from this, it's a Trader Joe's item.

It's the Everything Bagel seasoning i've had everyone recommend this and everything bagel seasoning is just the seasonings that are in the back of your cabinet just like put it together mix it in a bag dice you know like have it all put and that's your everything bagel seasoning but everyone claims trader joe your everything bagel seasoning. But everyone claims Trader Joe's everything bagel seasoning. Everything but the bagel seasoning. That's the technical name. I saw you gave me that look and I'm like, all right, I better correct myself. Miles is coming for your ass on this one.

I was like, don't fuck up my first show back. I know. I know. Again, I feel like the stakes are super high right now. And with the seasoning, why are you selling that? And it fits all the ingredients in your cabinet already. It's garlic, salt, sesame seeds, poppy seed care. It's everything you already have in trying to be smart about finances. Isn't that like a money saver as well?

Yeah, truly. Thank you. it's weird though too because like have you noticed they also made chips now with the everything bagel seasoning on it and when i saw that i'm like oh motherfuckers got a lot of extra bagel seasoning at the factory that's what that told me was like because i remember for a while that shit was the wave and it was like oh my god like weren't people like reselling it on amazon because they were so fucking obsessed with i remember this and i was like okay they got something and then years passed and now it's like hey man remember this shit it's like ja rule trying to

come back where you're like yeah all right fool like go ahead like oh you're doing chips now okay i got the chips way too fucking salty i'm upside down on this everything bagel seasoning. For real. Everything but the bagel. It's murder. My investments. Look, man, I just need you to buy one crate. Come on. Please, man. Yeah.

Any take? Do you have a take on that, Jack? My take on the everything but the bagel seasoning is I've tried it once. I think it was at a house I was at. I don't think we've ever bought it. And it just fell directly, immediately off of the thing I was trying to put it on. Because the stuff that I want it on is not moist stuff. Are people putting it on pasta?

What are you putting it on? Like a dry slice of white bread? Yeah. Just a cracker. Just a saltine. I told you, Miles. It's all I eat is saltine. It's just like a flood of seasoning just coming out of Jack's mouth. An apple before I take a bite of it.

I just don't know how things work. I'm flying out. What's going on with the seasoning? Yeah. I don't know I forget what I tried to put it on it was a dumb point but we're gonna keep it keep it in Justin but the pot like to your point

Jack what or I think miles made it was about the possible like do you put it in like what do you do with this like do you add it like your season I guess eggs eggs again cabinet it's all in there that's true i don't i would never i mean i love eggs but i don't over i don't season my eggs like the eggs are there to like take on the other flavors on your breakfast plate and even when

i make my i soft boiled eggs a lot of times and i just eat it with a little bit of soy sauce that's what i do but everything bagel seasoning i think when you put it on there, you've now made a meme of your food. Yeah. Because I don't know anything that's like, man, you know, really turn up this mac and cheese as if it tastes like an everything bagel. Yeah. I love everything bagels. I love the seasoning. Like the thing that I would want to put it on is those bagels.

Just like extra everything. Or cut through it and be like like here's everything seasoned cream cheese to turn up your plain ass bagel so now you're fusing all those flavors i can see that but i can definitely see myself like taking a bite of a bagel and then just like shaking it into my mouth like that feels like a thing that that feels like the road i would eventually travel down if I let this stuff into my household. Also, I just remembered Jenny's ice cream has an everything bagel ice cream. Oh, we covered it. Oh, you covered it. We were all over that.

All over that shit. Yeah. Well, because Miles, something you meant. Well, we'll get into it in the reentry. Yes, please. Remind me to get into it. I'm going to burn up on reentry. Ranch ice cream.

Okay. Oh, yes. Never mind. I'm going to burn up on reentry. Ranch ice cream. Okay. Oh, yes. Never mind. I got to go. I'm sorry. I got a fucking kid now, man. Daily listeners, Miles has left the chat already. Miles is out.

He's just walked off muttering, I got a kid now, man. I can't. Yeah. This is now an algorithmic version of Miles Bray, man. Come on, Jack. Let's get to the commercial break, dude. My guy. My guy?

What is something you think is underrated, Olivia? Underrated? I think midday naps are underrated. Thank you! I love, and I'm on an I heart show saying I take a midday nap and I am proud to say I take one and it is the best

thing I just set aside 30 minutes just it's a nice brain recoup of just being like I've been staring at a screen all day my computer my phone and I'm just gonna tune out for 30 minutes. And when I wake up, I feel refreshed. I feel focused. Some people may think like,

oh, this is so Eurocentric, South American of you. But I'm like, they're so happy with their productivity. And I think just a little midday nap i love that there has been brought more to attention for it and i hope it gets more i don't i don't think it will ever get to the overrated scale but no i think everyone should take it especially in america i mean we're capitalism it's just ongoing so naps will never become overrated, but it's like, I think everyone should try it. It just really brings your brain into a new mindset. You feel more productive. And I've been trying to get my husband to take midday naps and it hasn't worked out for him, but I feel like we're going to get there. We're going to get there. He just needs to find the right, like little calm music that needs to help with it but i believe like just midday naps are so underrated how

when you say that i'm like i have to be usually now you know as a parent you know wait you're a parent you come by those sleeping hours they can come they're they're rare sometimes yeah sometimes you do got to sleep when the baby sleeps but But I have like my circadian rhythms are so fucking strong sometimes. Like even when I'm tired, it really it's hard for me to take a nap. But so I'm very jealous of like you that you could be like, oh, yeah, I'm ready for my 30 minute nap because 30 minutes I will wake up like in two hours later, like in a time warp. Mind you, like my setting, I do have a timer. And when my timer's up,

I have it set for loud bird sounds. So once I hear those loud bird sounds, I wake up. You're starting to hate birds a little bit. I'm a little bit. Mind you, I know this. I live in Highland Park, which is the home of like the feral parrots

that live up there and i already wake up to them in the morning where they're just like coming in gangs like throughout the whole neighborhood and just waking up highland park so i wake up with that but then it mimics that for my nap and i'm like oh my gosh the birds are the birds are here you just shoot up right just go from laying down to standing on your bed like it's like it's a it's a don't wake daddy type of waking up just like god love that game don't wake daddy which okay again i don't mean to take a dark term don't wake daddy the dad had depression what is don't wake to take a dark term. Don't wake daddy. The dad had depression. What is don't wake daddy?

I'm not. All right. I'll be Googling this. Oh, it was a board game that was kind of that you're slightly too old for and was coming out right around the time I was looking at board games. And it's like a old, like a Parker brothers game that basically it was, it was all about like your kids and you're,

aren't you trying to get to the refrigerator? You're trying to get to the refrigerator and you have these obstacles you're going through that could trigger waking up dad, aka daddy. And if you wake up daddy, you lose your round. And the objective of the game

is getting to the refrigerator without waking up your dad. But then now looking at it i'm like and the thing is like if you wake up dad the outcome he's mad he's upset he's angry and i'm like this man had depression yeah i think that's what they're like yo i mean how about like give dad a break yeah yeah give dad a break dude hold on now i gotta watch the commercial because i remember like there wasn't like a live action guy who'd be like, like, who was like the daddy? I think so.

I think in the commercial. Alcoholic passed out dad. Yeah, let's look at Miles. If you're able to pull that up, let's let's please check that out. So it's a bunch of he's wearing a sleeping cap. Sleeping cab. so it's a bunch of he's wearing a sleeping cap sleeping cab isn't for see one of them is like don't wake up the dog he wakes up shouting yeah with his eyes wide open

damn also i'm curious like what's the situation what's the story with the kids who like with his eyes wide open. Damn. Also, I'm curious, what's the story with the kids who are now having to eat at night while the parent is asleep? Is he feeding the kids? Hide from daddy during the day. That's the other less popular game. Hide from daddy during the day

and then don't wake him up when you sneak off. Either way, there's a darkness. Yeah, the other side of this coin is also dark. So don't wake daddy. Okay. You can fix so much by putting like a little whimsical sleeping cap on somebody.

Right. Right. Exactly. The toy figure that pops up also has a big like Scrooge style sleeping cap on. All right. Let's take a quick break. We'll give, we'll recap what miles missed and get into some new news. We'll be right back. This summer, the nation watched as the Republican nominee for president was the target of two assassination attempts, separated by two months. These events

were mirrored nearly 50 years ago, when President Gerald Ford faced two attempts on his life in less than three weeks. President Gerald R. Ford came stunningly close to being the victim of an assassin today. And these are the only two times we know of that a woman has tried to assassinate a U.S. president. One was the protege of infamous cult leader Charles Manson. I always felt like Lynette was kind of his right hand woman. The other, a middle-aged housewife working undercover for the FBI in a violent revolutionary underground. Identified by police as Sarah Jean Moore. The story of one strange and violent summer. This is Rip Current, available now with new episodes every Thursday.

Listen on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I've been thinking about you. I want you back in my life. It's too late for that. I have a proposal for you. Come up here and document my project. All you need to do is record everything like you always do. One session.

24 hours. BPM 110. 120. She's terrified. Should we wake her up? Absolutely not. What was that? You didn't figure it out?

I think I need to hear you say it. That was live audio of a woman's nightmare. This machine is approved and everything? You're allowed to be doing this? We passed the review board a year ago. We're not hurting people. There's nothing dangerous about what you're doing. They're just dreams.

Dream Sequence is a new horror thriller from Blumhouse Television, iHeartRadio, and Realm. They're just dreams. Ruffin, a better Lacey Lamar. Boo. Okay, everybody, we have exciting news to share. We're back with season two of the Amber and Lacey Lacey and Amber show on Will Ferrell's Big Money Players Network. You thought you had fun last season? Well, you were right. And you should tune in today for new fun segments like Sister Court and listening to Lacey's steamy DMs.

We've got new and exciting guests like Michael Beach, that's my husband, Daphne Spring, Daniel Thrasher, Peppermint, Morgan Jay, and more. You got to watch us. No, you mean you have to listen to us. I mean, you can still watch us, but you got to listen. Like, if you're watching us, you have to tell us. Like, if you're out the window, you have to say, hey, I'm watching you outside of the window.

Just, you know what? Listen to the Amber and Lacey, Lacey and Amber show on Will Ferrell's Big Money Players Network on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And we're back. And first of all, Miles, we should just establish, what is the last thing you remember happening? You've been away a long time. The State of the Union?

Things have changed out there. State of the Union. I think when Biden was like, you're not going to cut Medicare or Social Security, are you? And they're like, no. And he's like, got you on mic saying that. But it doesn't matter because that's your job. That's the last thing. And then it's all spotty from there that happened it's all then

there was the train derailment yeah that had me fucking i was like oh fuck it all yeah you're actually not allowed to talk about that because people would have been people to judges maybe running for president so we just don't talk about that. Oh, that's over now? There's still a debate over who's... What about all the people who are measuring the toxins in the air? Yeah, so he actually ran that through some of his McKinsey consulting software, and things are cool there. The big event that occupied national attention for like a week

was that one of the people from vanderpump rules cheated on another person from vanderpump rules with and you're never gonna believe this still a third person from vanderpump rules and everyone's mind was blown by that this is jacks i don't think jacks was involved i think jack has moved on no it was okay unfortunately i'm jumping in here please do it was tom sandoval who is a main guy yeah when you always wear glasses at their at the reunions does he wear glasses sometimes tom sandoval i feel like he was one of those people who wore his eyeglasses but as an accessory though like i want to check like do you have a prescription? Right, right, right. That's the thing. You just poke them in the eye and they're like, man, there's no lenses in here.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, good for him. Good for him. Yeah. He's cheating. That's the main thing? It's called Scandival. Hashtag Scandival.

Yeah. Oh, shame and everything, Miles. Wow. That's all happening the week when we're not talking about the anniversary of the invasion of Iraq. Yeah, yeah, yeah. More on that later. So Joe Biden approved a massive oil pumping operation. And there were some concerns with this because the ground that they're trying to extract oil out of is getting softer because of climate change.

Oh. extract oil out of is getting softer because of climate change oh so but they came up with a great solution where they have machines that will freeze the ground so that they can better drill into it they're called chillers so chillers are a thing that we have to know about now but more importantly than any of that on yesterday's episode we invented the phrase grindfulness, which is a mindful approach to being on your grindset mindset. I like that. So that is trademarked and we are now a influencer podcast. That's true. I mean, that is how you get to Lambeau.

You know what I mean? How I get to Lambeau, but also how I feeling about myself. Yeah. To Lambeau. And I'm a challenge to listeners, man. This is something I was thinking a lot about when I was like with my with my baby and my wife. We were I was like, man, I don't hang around enough people that are really on their grind. Thank you. And I think that is the reason I don't have Lambo.

So I use that to really kind of just stop but cut a lot of people off. My mom, my dad, some of my cousins and my best friends. You aren't uplifting me to the point that i'm i am lambo you're not on the same wavelength yeah yeah you know what i mean like so look i'm i'm doing a bit of a reset to be a little more grindful about things and i do challenge everybody else like if if y'all aren't cut those people out of your life yeah you and your homies every day should be talking about how you split like 17 rental properties. And if you're not, I feel sorry for you.

Yeah. Anyway. Yeah. A bunch of brand movies dropped and critics are like, yes, please. More of this, daddy. The Flamin' Hot Cheetos movie. You remember that? Oh, yeah.

The one that like. That came out. Yeah. That hit South by Southwest and everyone loves it. And then the new Ben Affleck Air Jordans movie came out and it's like 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. So that's the other. In addition to being grindfulness influencers, we're also going to be an IP factory where we just start pitching out ideas for the next big brand movie. So that's just something that we're always going to be working on in the background.

I can't wait for the story about wet wipes that's coming out. Yeah. Yeah. As a parent, I'm like, oh, this is going to be're always going to be working on in the back i can't wait for the story about uh wet wipes that's coming out yeah yeah as a parent i'm like oh this is gonna be this is gonna be lit yeah yeah the origin of don't wake daddy like that that could actually be a dark oh no dark that can be very dark i was gonna say attach ari aster to that project oh my god yeah wow okay good to know good i'm calling a24 right now sorry we got to do this we got to get on this now grindfulness felt a little like interesting but now i think i'm into it yeah now i'm in oh wow you were you were on the fence i was on the fence did trump get arrested yet trump is so he's like begging to be arrested like i knew he thinks

handcuffs are gonna make him look tough and he's but he's like really lobbying to start a civil war i don't i it seems like he started this story from the start yeah no it seems like nobody's on board with that but that one's still happening so i think you're up to speed i think that's everything well also yeah i i should have posted it but man i had such a when i watched the oscars when uh kihoi kwan won i fucking lost it and i was in tears and her message was like are you okay he was the coolest asian kid i could look up to on tv and he fell off so hard and now he's back and i fucking love that shit if you've heard me i talk all the time about this movie that he made in the 90s called breathing fire because i was such a

jonathan ki hoi kwan fan like that i followed his career like into the depths of bad movies and it's a martial arts film you can watch it on youtube where he plays this vietnamese orphan who was taken back to america by a marine after his sniper mother was killed and he's raised alongside this american kid and they become these martial arts experts and bring down a criminal uh organization but also when i see this is a picture of me and him when I was a little boy. Yeah. Oh, my gosh. I got to meet him. It was the greatest moment of my life. Okay.

That smile of yours is so adorable. You are literally meeting your biggest fan. Yeah. I was like, eee. You're like, yes. This shit is from 1991. Wow. Okay.

The year Breathing Fire came out. Yeah, exactly. Anyway, so shout out to. And I did see The year breathing fire came out. Yeah, exactly. Anyway, so shout out to and I did see the Super Bowl halftime show. That's it. Okay. That was Rihanna. And that's funny. The boys. That's it. Those are my updates. The boys. Yeah.

Yeah. Okay. That's it. That's it. I like I didn't even remember the State of the Union happened. So there's something this show does to your brain where it's just a fire hose. Oh, yeah. And everything. I mean, honestly, the biggest benefit I had was literally not being on Twitter up until like a few hours ago. Yeah. How to go. How's reentry to Twitter? It's man. When you're when you're away from it a long but for a long time i'm like oh no

like part of me is like oh shit like yeah i get twitter broke also twitter's just broke yeah i saw that but whatever i'm back i'm fully looking into he's back sauron's eye for the moment so uh as we mentioned the trump impending arrest maybe i don know. We don't really know if it's happening. But after he first posted about his supposedly looming arrest, his campaign did start hitting people up for donations and made $1.5 million. As one does, that checks out. Yeah. As one does that checks out. Yeah. They said it was at a higher rate than anything. Even after,

like, I think one of the last times he did something like this, he was only making like two 50 a day. He was basically, he made 500,000 a day. Yeah. Off the strength of the, they're going to take me to jail y'all. And he got their asses with that.

Yeah. Yeah. He really got all our assets. I feel like, because then like the prosecution is like uh what uh what are you talking about and they have to like respond and everything's just yeah it is that trumpian 4d chess which it turns out is just flipping the chess board i was gonna say like we're not playing chess we're playing don't wake daddy don't wait don't wait don't

wake trumpy and then also like scammers just know how to scam it's it's he's just gonna keep getting away doing the same thing over and over again whether people do or don't show up he's still gonna be ripping off and making all that money from people right i can't wait you know if he goes to jail and he's grifting from jail and he's like you gotta help me he's like they're gonna stick me in the yard if i don't get them three beef sticks please send in your donations patriots just all caps in his newsletters i'm in a cell yeah yeah yeah his all caps i mean he dropped an all caps truth social about how he's 100 innocent and his lat the last part was as they tell us to be peaceful this motherfucker who like would take elon musk's fucking space plane to get away from a fist fight like the oh yeah yeah

has never like loves an argument when when he can throw lawyers at it but oh yeah i love that there are people who are like he's like really like william wallace in many ways he's her he's our warrior poet leader and then he's gonna get ripped to shreds at that yeah yeah maybe doesn't he get like like drawn pulled apart by horses or some shit yeah they pull out his innards and then oh yeah yeah cool yeah but they'll never take our they'll never take our nfts that's right he's telling them i think it's funny though too like in all of his pandering and like begging for money there was one one post that he did where he was the gist is sort of like hey look if you're poor like then don't

worry about it but if you're a balling ass patriot who benefited from my presidency and my policies then open up your fucking wallets which was like interesting to be like oh okay so he's a grifter with a heart but again it's more like appealing to your ego too it's like well i mean if you're if you're a broke boy yeah obviously but i know that's not you. The link to the petition for people to sign to protest his arrest also suggested donating sums of $500, $1,000, or $3,300. Good for you. You know, the three amounts of money. The three genders. Yes.

$500, $1,000, or $3,300 donations. genders yes 500 1000 or 3300 donations i think again with all this too it is nice to see that you know like he's the the lack of actual physical protests that he's inspired by it you know well they wanted to keep it low-key miles there was some loser parties i saw that but like you know when people pulled up to the courthouse in new york it looked like more that anti-trumpers were the ones that got the message to protest than the ones that were like there to like defend him or support Trump. And the best they really got was like McCarthy being like, I'm going to have to investigate, you know, the Manhattan D.A., even though it's not a federal court. But I'll find a way to meddle in that court. And I think others were a little more restrained.

But I just like how some people were like, don't fucking go. It's another honeypot operation. Don't fucking do it. And then there's the really mad January Sixer people who are like, you're talking about this shit, but you've left all the true Jan Sixers in the lurch, not giving your support. Donald, what gives?

So I don't know. It could just be that the idea of covering up an affair with hundreds of thousands of dollars isn't as an effective organizing tool as for his side yeah having the full weight of the party and the conservative media apparatus for months saying the election was stolen yeah um there is a silver lining to this story though because i you know i think we advised all our listeners and if you didn't take this advice that's on you i'm like you need to think about who you need to cut out of your life but we advised everybody to like jump on those trump nfts 100 with photoshopped images of trump as a

cowboy or an astronaut anyways those with the word of his possible impending arrest the prices of those have gone up a little bit. So that's good to see. And hopefully our listenership is printing money right now off of that. I was going to say, you have to be. Now, those things must be worth a little bit more. I mean, astronaut, cowboy. What other?

Are those the only two that he released? No, there was like Superman one. Baseball player. Wasn't there a baseball one yeah it was just him like living out his fantasies i love it i would also i would love to meet the person who photoshopped all that stuff or like gathered that i would love to meet the designer the designer of all those nfts and i hope no like a behind the scenes like deep dive story of like what that process was like i'm sure they're not being paid well no but that's a really good point yo we need to do this fan who like was like hey i can design them like can i talk to him like yeah yeah yeah for sure man uh pull up to mar-a-lago like fucking

nine years right you know someone someone many people were taken advantage of but i like i'm interested to know if there was someone like so enthusiastic about it you're like oh no you've you're not with us here on earth anymore are you yeah notes that he must have given on those to be like i don't know maybe a little stronger yeah really i'm not a Batman. I'm more of a Superman type. I see what you're going with there. My biceps could be a lot bigger.

These are even smaller than real life. I would come back, do another pass at that. I want my triceps to look like fucking horseshoes back there. Alright, let's take a quick break and we'll come back to our Tic Tac. Tic Tac. Tic Tac. This summer, the nation watched as the Republican nominee for president was the target of two

assassination attempts separated by two months. These events were mirrored nearly 50 years ago when President Gerald Ford faced two attempts on his life in less than three weeks. President Gerald R. Ford came stunningly close to being the victim of an assassin today. And these are the only two times we know of that a woman has tried to assassinate a U.S. president. One was the protege of infamous cult leader Charles Manson.

I always felt like Lynette was kind of his right-hand woman. The other, a middle-aged housewife working undercover for the FBI in a violent, revolutionary underground. Identified by police

My Cultura podcast network available on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And don't worry, we promise to avoid any black holes. Most of the time. And we're back. Social media world is on attention because Congress, you know, senators, Congress people are on the case where they're interrogating the CEO of TikTok about how there's a national security threat here. Yeah, we all know that.

We've got to get to it. We've all seen it, man. Those dance trends. Yeah. The pink sauce. These are national security threats. And I think we need to be really opening our eyes, folks, about what's going on. I mean, this whole thing is so fucking funny to me because you have all of these like elderly people in Congress being like, and we got to get rid of TikTok. It's so bad and Chinese that we got do something on that oh my god if i have to hear the word

chinese communist like again i'm gonna i'm gonna open nine more tiktok accounts like i can't handle this shit and they're getting grilled like the ceo's getting drilled about how data is collected and manipulated by the chinese communists right but like the argument they're one of their main arguments uh goes like this it's chinese oh wait okay there were some other nuances to that uh they say that the ccp can use tiktok to run propaganda ops that will put the nation at risk but then how come not one sitting member of congress has been briefed by national security intelligence people talking about this supposed security threat? Because if it's that level to ban it, I'd imagine the people whose business it is to say this is a national security threat would have a full on report to give to you so you can regurgitate that in public.

But they're just like, nah, man, it's they can do anything because of the CCP. So think about that yeah the i would could you imagine if they did though it seems to be their whole thinking here because there's no evidence that this has happened it's all just right you know look at the power of facebook and twitter and instagram but now imagine they're chinese they picture she's chinese that's a time to kill reference yes because yeah there's that heavy emphasis where it's just like there is an air unquote like global threat but it's like what does the chinese government and like the gay grandpas of tiktok like have to have it.

Yeah, it's wild. A lot of people said like, I mean, more than anything, it probably wouldn't be constitutional to ban it based on like, you know, your First Amendment rights. And also like they're really not factoring in a lot of people like are actually making a living on there, too. But again, it's all in service of like, they, they, all they keep bringing up are these buzzwords.

I've seen it on MSNBC, CNN, Fox news. They go, you hear this, the algorithms, no context. They just say the algorithms,

other people go and you know, data privacy is a big, you know, cause these people, they can access this data. Okay. And then they say, and then there's misinformation.

Oh, really? That's what's really them up at night only on tiktok really motherfucker because again this is all the problems that facebook twitter instagram fucking 100% we're like you've had people articulate the fucking how insidious like the feed is on instagram to like young people's mental health well i don't see no we're the fucking outrage over that. Oh, because American.

And it's just like this is coming at a time to obviously in the backdrop, the U.S. is ramping up like an entire like a tech war against China. You know, they're trying to cut off their ability to get parts to make semiconductors and like complex chipsets. They've even got like the Netherlands and Japan to join in to be like be like hey we're not giving you our like next level shit either and again when you look at how bad fucking mark zuckerberg has been doing like who completely fucked the bed by going all in on the fucking metaverse he's probably like licking his lips right now oh yeah being like oh please man this shit this will help this will help me get out the fucking like the lurches because people don't fuck with reels on Instagram. Maybe they will now. Yeah.

Yeah. I mean, I think overall, I mean, this is me just speculating, but do you think, like, the grandparents of Congress are just really focused on tackling TikTok because they haven't really cracked the code of what TikTok is? Like, they figured out how to infiltrate Facebook, like being like, okay. I mean, in a sense of like a lot of like elderly people

like post on Facebook all the time and know like what to do. But for TikTok, they're just like, ah, these dance trends, I can't, I don't know. Yeah, I think it's that. And just, I think it's just easier to have a go at a non-American company because they hate hearing that an American app or

company would be banned in another part of the world oh yeah absolutely there would be a different direction with that I think more than anything it's like this you know this fucking like CCP like propaganda like anti-CCP stuff where they keep sort of hammering this home

and i think it's just part of like how americans like to do shit there's real problems here but you're fucking worried about what's going on somewhere else yeah and you're like oh misinformation is a big deal what about fucking facebook yeah you know and the actual you can draw direct lines to meddling and how people have fucking been killed because of the misinformation that spreads on facebook but again your fucking hands are up and it's easier to go but the chinese app yeah it's like a misdirect to their technology yeah it's just a very easy pivot and again it either it reveals two things either these people know fuck all about social media, which I believe is true.

And then it also just shows how fucking hawkish they are on like China right now. Because it's also, you know, coming at a time to China is, you know, like they're backing Russia and trying to be like a power broker in the Middle East now. So, yeah, I mean, they did broker like, I don't know, I don't like a big you know peace treaty or you know so pretty significant something the u.s never could have done between iran and saudi arabia like that that's not nothing it's been it's treated as nothing in the u.s press but i'm sure like that makes them nervous even though like when you google it the first headline is like washington's not nervous about this like specifically that's we're not we're not nervous you're nervous that actually china's nervous the atlantic council has an article from two days ago china's mediation between saudi and iran is no cause for panic in

washington so don't even worry about it and stop googling i love it oh my stop googling stop binging stop googling yeah but yeah it's just it it's it's it's just disheartening too like i think jamal bowman like is the one congressperson who's like i don't know why they're keep trying to go at tiktok he's like i haven't heard anything no one has briefed us on what the fuck is going on with it and it's if you're like the real issue isn't that it's the cc it could be a ccp tool or whatever to skew the global conversation because again we have those issues with our own u.s-based social media companies it sounds like overall all the things they're talking about data privacy the algorithm misinformation those, those are real issues to tackle with social media as a whole. In general.

They don't have the appetite to properly regulate that. So again, it's better to just go scorched earth and be like, get this foreign shit out of here. Yeah, totally. Yeah. Yeah, there's probably some convenience. And, you know, I don't know if this is the sort of thing that Facebook or, you know, American social media companies would lobby for.

But it's certainly like you said, Miles, very convenient for them. If TikTok got banned suddenly, they would. If I was Mark Zuckerberg, I would be making it fucking rain. And, you know, actually, they did do a lot like last year. They were like they did a little anti TikTok, you know, marketing campaign. So they they have been chumming the waters for this because they know it's the fuck TikTok took a huge bite out of social media. And Gen Z is like, it's funny, like you see the sentiment. They're like, the fuck I'm going to do start using instagram yeah oh yeah genzy has their foot down they are not going to use instagram they're like i'll jailbreak 7 000 fucking phones to use tiktok before i'm fucking acting like oh well i guess that's over so i mean and it just feels like there is a general fraying and a general like things no longer working with all of the like big tech i mean not just the

silicon valley bank but you know what happened just i've been trying to i've been trying to get back from that man my fuck i can't get any of my money out jack he's been on paternity leave can you debrief him what happened i know it's good that's so weird just that they'll get back to you they'll get back all right yeah yeah yeah it's all good That's so weird. They'll get back to you. They'll get back to you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's all good. Just need a heart procedure. But also just, like, there are these stories of just random Uber Eats orders just misfiring or showing up at people's, like, some of the people who, like, one place got 30 mystery orders in a week. And so they're, like, being paid for somehow.

It's not clear, like, who is benefiting from this. somehow it's not clear like who is benefiting from this but the like one person in british columbia got 30 orders in a week of like a side of gravy a bottle of water and they're just like yeah yeah don't worry about that we talked like a couple weeks back about how they're like these companies that invade google search results for restaurants and just put up a like clone of the website and you order your food for them through them and they just charge you five extra dollars and like that oh right right yeah they're just like using google as an opportunity to like scam money out of people like the whole thing the whole system just seems like it's broken like amazon like there are countless stories of

people ordering things on amazon and you get like a you know dot matrix print out yeah the thing that you ordered and they're like what that's that's what you ordered yeah my friend my friend ordered a mini trampoline for a shoot and when when she got back, there were five mini trampolines on her doorstep, like assemble. And she has the receipts of ordering just one. And then their response is like, you got it, you ordered it. So keep it.

Give us four more. Oh, they're like, hey, free trampolines. Yeah, now she has five trampolines and doesn't know what to do with them. The whole system just seems like it's like fraying and then their response is like let's take down the good chinese for the good chinese uh tech things the one i mean not good as in like i'm sure tiktok is fucking terrible and like the peak of like all of the things that make social media addictive like it's definitely certain conversations on there yeah you know it's bad but it's like i guess

the better product and the thing that they're worried about is like yeah i mean like if you're on a checklist i'm like okay which one may have heavily influenced an election and like completely skewed how even people looked at the pandemic? Yeah, I think that's all Zucky's fucking platform. Yeah. You know what I mean? And that's why it's just it's it's it's a very inefficient way to tackle a very complex problem. And I think that's we're just seeing like the the lack of thought that goes into it and just referring to xenophobia and being like, it's that man. It's that. And because I know they're pointing to like laws that like that the Chinese government can like just take like dip into someone's data is like just part of their own like in national security laws or whatever. And they point to like that as being like the reason why TikTok is absolutely vulnerable and things like that.

But most people are saying like, even if you ban TikTok, you're not necessarily reducing a ton of, like, national security threats. Like, so the people whose business it is to discuss it are like, I don't know, that's, like, the way to go, really? That's what you're concerned about. The focuses are off. It should be on other issues, like what you were saying earlier with, like, Facebook.

Like, we should be addressing those things forefront instead of tackling this social media giant that happens to not be us made and all that yeah you look man like fucking twitter facebook the american companies are taking fucking l's right now you know they're a fucking mess so in this time i'm sure like whatever because you know those plenty of people kick their money to capitol hill that there's many people will benefit if tiktok is banned and it's just kind of so transparently like a fucking terrible way to fix anything that it helps remind me that we are in america in fact yeah you know who isn't taking L's? Highland Park next door.

There has been such, going back real quickly, about the orders on Ubers that so many threads have been, these teenagers keep doing it or stop sending me French fries randomly. Why do they think teenagers are paying for... Because these are all paid-for orders. No! Exactly! What do they think is happening? They think they're being, like,

pranksters. I blame it all on China and teenagers. Yeah, that's what it is. You know you're smart and on the right side of the issue when you're blaming

China and teenagers. It's those Chinese teenagers. Thank you. You know what I mean? That's who's doing... They know my blood pressure is high, and they're sending me French fries. They know.

So of course I'm going to eat them. Because of the algorithms. Yeah. Nextdoor has been blowing up. And yes, I do subscribe and get the email notifications, but a lot of them have been about the mystery Uber deliveries. Yeah. It's a mess out there.

Google also just... So there's this bard thing that is their chat gpt they just revealed it somebody like people are pointing out that you can like the futurism.com asked bard to write an article about why trump is an alien lizard person and it did like a really good it's if you've ever like googled something and landed on a website that like you you realize after the fact is like epoch times or something right but like they're just doing a karaoke impression of a news article and this feels like a slightly better impression of a news article than what you would find on those sites in the past like because they will source they will link off to sources they'll be like new york as the new york

times wrote about trump's trump and the lizard people like and they'll just link off to a and then the link will be broken you know yeah and that just like continues the cycle we already have of people, you know, air on quote, doing research, and then now they just ask racist ass Jeeves about an issue they want to defend. And then they're going to be like, well, this article said, and it's like, well, you yourself have to go click, make an assessment, all that. It's just making it, yeah, it's just continuing the disinformation even more the internet is just completely useless that is going to be completely useless like i i once worked at a company where a big part of like not the part that i worked for but a big part of their business model was clogging up google with useless articles that they could then like sell ads on just like churning out articles and this like seems like it is the perfect tool to make that completely like easy and like you can churn out a million articles a day

this way and it's going to completely make like make google and the use of the internet right like pointless like they've just created a tool that is going to make their the one thing that they're known for completely useless yeah so the chat gpt i'm still like because what the last one it passed the bar exam right like the top 10 i saw like the latest update to chat gpt was like it's just like even better yeah it's getting better yeah becoming a better lawyer and i see like how i can see the benefit for people like i know people who are like i'm not a great writer and part of my job i have to write stuff for like a proposal or things like that and it just takes me so long I've used chat GPT to help create something that then I can then edit and it makes me work like faster or whatever.

Like I can see those kinds of benefits, but it becomes a really slippery slope. Like as you're saying, when now like we're just getting so much content generated from it that could have the tone of, I guess guess a normal article about alien shapeshifters but like putting like like result after result that it doesn't like it can pass the smell test to most people like sort of immediately and then like we're all saying just completely skews our perception of like things that are going on and like the imagery stuff was funny too i saw like those ai images of uh trump getting like hauled away in handcuffs and shit the only reason i was like i just always look at the hands and the legs because the ai yeah that's what we said like six legs i was like no all right i've seen like i've seen some bad ones where like a hand has like eight fingers and i'm like whoa the manipulation it's close

enough that if you just like see it at a glance you're just like oh shit you're like oh my goodness yeah he does have eight fingers damn trump trump is pretty tough look at him dragging all those secret service agents no i can't believe he like hom or laser eyed all them outside the courthouse bard even defect like they asked it to write a pizzagate article like in the tone of a journalist and it would link off to new york times articles about pizzagate and be like i think it lends a lot of credence because the new york times has written about the theory and then link off to an article where when you read the article you realize they're writing about it as a hoax but right it takes 15 minutes to like do that work so it's just it's going to make things so much worse

can't wait for like that new skill that you have to like raise kids with, which is like, you know, if the bots wrote it right, you know how to sniff out that AI bullshit. Right. Yeah. The Turing test.

Yeah. Oh boy. Wow. Fun, fun times for us. Olivia, such a pleasure having you on this episode. Where can people find you,

follow you, all that good stuff?
