I'm vegan, but I eat bad stuff. I became vegan to be healthier. And then I just found Oreos, you know, being in LA and being vegan is so not good for your health because they have all of the alternatives, but they also have that at the Chicago diner. It was really, really good. It was all vegan.
Starting point is 00:07:06 They had like really great shakes. They had cinnamon buns. Oh, so good. I love a place where I can get stuff that I normally can't get anywhere else. You know what I mean? The Chicago Diner is all vegan? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:18 That rules. It does rule. That's not what I would expect from the Chicago Diner. I would expect some various meat slurries that have formed. Yeah. What was the junkiest of the junk food that you had there? Well, I had the cinnamon roll and then I also had like this
Starting point is 00:07:33 like chocolate peanut butter milkshake that was delicious. It was so good. It was so good. In LA, there's like Doomies, which gives me that wonderful like soul food type. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Terrible cooking for vegans.
Starting point is 00:07:49 Like bad for you. That's the one in Hollywood, right? Yeah. And then here, I think I found the Chicago version. Jack, remember when we go there and get that Al Pastor burrito that was just smothered in cheese sauce? Yes. Yes, I do remember that. I remember being... That was the first being that was like my that was the
Starting point is 00:08:06 first time i was like oh yeah you could fuck you could fuck your life up with vegan food bad yeah yeah i'm like probably the unhealthiest vegan i know and i'm proud to do that i have a homie that might be well we can we'll talk offline we should do battle of the unhealthiest vegans yeah because it'll be like the hot dog eating contest for jamie loftus but with vegan food all right well probably we're gonna get to know you a little bit better in a moment uh first we're gonna tell our listeners a couple of things we're talking about uh we do have to of course recap the gop debate competition to be the bit like most bloodthirsty seemed to be like kind of first front and center yeah who could be a subhuman bloodthirsty warhawk creature yeah warthog desantis's performance man it just every i find his just lack of like he seems to be allergic to charisma in a way that i find like very mesmerizing
Starting point is 00:09:09 oh yeah i mean i didn't i didn't put this like in the story but did you see the like his last comment where he tried to smile at the end no but every every comment he gives he has the deadest of eyes yeah he's yeah he's yeah i can't unsee homelander like that picture of him and homelander trying or those videos of them like trying to smile but like not being able to hide their evilness yeah i can't i can't unsee it this one is pretty good because he shows his tongue for some reason because he doesn't know how to smile and as your president i will not let you down. God bless you. Governor DeSantis, thank you.
Starting point is 00:09:48 What the fuck? He did like a little snake thing with his tongue behind his teeth. He was like, anyway. That's how you smile, right? Yeah, that's how you smile. This is how humans human. Yeah. Just I'm being lightly electrified. How much of
Starting point is 00:10:04 his time is just spent in the mirror being like smile and then like smacking himself on the face. Not enough. Like a single tear like runs down his frozen face. I feel like he doesn't go to sleep. He just stands and stares in a corner. Yeah. Yeah. Or like stares at his wife who's sleeping.
Starting point is 00:10:20 Oh, she's like, Ron, stop looking at me. He's like, I can't go to sleep. The dead eyes. Yeah. The dead eyes. Yeah. Such dead eyes. He's not practicing enough because he's so bad at it. And I don't even like the idea that he's struggling with it. I think he's just not practicing how he plays.
Starting point is 00:10:37 Yeah. It is weird to see him try to attempt Trump's positions or Trumpian like actions without having any of the charisma of Trump. Like it's really weird. It's like kind of like an experimental control. Like if you took the charm out of it, what would it be like? This is what it would sound
Starting point is 00:10:57 like. Oh, it's a fascist talking Lego man. We'll talk about Gal Gadot's IDF screening and how that didn't go well all of that plenty more but first polyvi we do like to ask our guests what is something from your search history okay i this is not like a singular search but separation anxiety and dogs what are we doing how do we help this my dog ate my Kindle like two weeks ago. I'm looking up things as a scientist. I don't believe in just like
Starting point is 00:11:33 taking random vitamins, but I will do anything for the dogs. I'm like, pheromones, sure they work. Not going to look into this. Let's buy a collar. Let's buy a diffuser let's get whatever the probiotics that are supposed to calm them down i'll do anything okay yeah that's what i'm looking at what's the solution i feel like the last time i thought about i remember being at the vet and seeing ads for medication for separation you know i was like but i'm trying to i get my parents now my indian parents who don't think mental health is a thing. I'm like, let's use meds as a last resort. What if you just exercise more?
Starting point is 00:12:10 Yeah, yeah, yeah. To my dog. I'm like mental health shaming my dog. What is it about Asia where it's like, you soft. What you need, Zoloft? He's like desperately chewing my shoes. I'm like, let's do something something else i don't want to tell the other dog parents you're on medication right how does your dog know like because separation anxiety
Starting point is 00:12:35 implies that the dog is aware that separation is going about to happen is it just like picking up on the cues from are you like packing well yeah i pack it three suitcases every time i leave the house it's separation anxiety for me and my things no um it's just like once i leave so i can like do things to make the routine of me leaving less anxiety inducing. Like I can put on my shoes and then sit down or like pick up my keys and like watch TV. And like, so he gets, you know, trained out of that. But it's once I leave, he's like chewing things. He's peeing, he's pooping. Oh, so like once you're gone. Yeah, right, right. It's destructive behavior. And he is a big boy. And so the solution is i just take him everywhere with
Starting point is 00:13:26 me all the time maybe i don't know that's one way to do it but yeah yeah no i i'm trying to figure it out we're crate training we're figuring we're figuring it out but that is definitely what i've been searching i've been looking at videos that's a whole nother pyramid scheme. That's like skincare is like dog stuff. Oh, yeah. It's wild. And I will buy everything. Yeah. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:51 Has anyone ever tried to be like, this is my therapy dog, but it's actually because the dog needs me to be with him at all times. So he has to like come on the plane with me because otherwise he's gonna just shit the entire cargo hold of your plane basically that's that's how i feel about dogs i'm like we as humanity have messed them up and now we have to deal with it so let me bring my dog everywhere right okay it's not it's not just for me it It's for other organisms. Okay? Yeah. Yeah, it's like any... I remember when my kid was first born and trying to figure out ways how to help sleep or whatever. Just anything that's giving you anxiety or stress or whatever.
Starting point is 00:14:38 It's truly like all logic and reason will go out the window. I'm like, I don't know. Maybe this motherfucker on TikTok who has no kids will tell me what the secret is. But yeah, I totally I get that. I get that. You're like, maybe I need to manifest. Maybe my dog needs a vision board. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:14:53 Yeah, I'm like, I've been waving the crystals in front of my child's eyes while doing the affirmations and it's just not working. And you won't go to sleep with these light up crystals you're waving in front of them. I'm like, it's a Himalayan salt crystal. It has to be lit up. Yes, I do happen to be screaming the mantras at the top of my lungs because I'm so fucking stressed out. You wholly and completely accept yourself. You wholly and completely accept yourself. I said.
Starting point is 00:15:24 Yeah. It's. Yeah. It's, yeah, I just like to throw my type A, all the type A facets of my personality at the problem, no matter what it is, you know. We love that. My child has anxiety. Okay. Spreadsheet time.
Starting point is 00:15:42 What is something you think is overrated i have to go to this conference and like why do i have to wear a pantsuit you know why can't i go in who cares if i'm in a onesie if the science is sound you know what i mean like why do i have to i don't want to wear they need to we did remote work everybody's chilling out Let's not put dress codes on professional conferences. It's professional. We're talking about stuff, you know? Also, I gained a lot of weight and I don't want to buy a new pantsuit. You know, I just can't.
Starting point is 00:16:16 Yeah, pantsuit. What are you going to do? Or you just do the thing. You leave the tags on, use it for the one thing and then take it back. Here's the thing is I know I'll destroy it. So, like, I can't count on, like, I can't be the girl that's like thing is, I know I'll destroy it. So like, I can't, I can't count on like, I can't be the girl that's like, oh,
Starting point is 00:16:28 I'm going to return it because I'm the girl in the sitcom that drops like red wine on everything. Right, right, right. So, I can't.
Starting point is 00:16:34 Yeah. I can't be that person. I fell into another thicket of bushes. Blueberry, blueberry bramble. Blueberry. Why do you keep going towards me? It's like the cloud that rains on you, but it it's blueberry brambles only popping up around you
Starting point is 00:16:49 that is 100 like that is how my fashion choices were made for a long time i was like would i be upset if i fell down and just and like messed this and tore a hole in my pants like yeah no okay i'm buying it if we let go of the idea of like formal work attire in certain like context, I'm sure a majority of people being like, like, we're all off this shit, right? Like, do you give a fuck? Like, I'm sure especially with like creative fields, or even I'm sure when the sciences like people like probably not as concerned with their like, what their fashion is, like, to your point about the science or no? what their fashion is like to your point about the science or no yeah so that is true when you're like in lab doing research like sometimes professors think it's it like if they see you in the same outfit two days in a row they're like oh they didn't go home they worked all night that's great like it's really messed up or like if you take time as when like when women like take time to like do their hair and makeup people are like why do you have time to do your hair and makeup like you should be working like it's really like misogynist and weird too so it can go too far
Starting point is 00:17:48 in the opposite direction but at conferences you do have to like have some sort of professional attire scientist prom yeah it's like it's actually like conferences are a huge fuck fest for scientists like they are horny as hell because like this conference for example it's gonna be like 30 to 50 000 people in neuroscience like all at this one conference and so it's like wait what was the number again it's like a small city like 30 to 50 000 people wow yeah where is it being held i it's in washington dc they're at convention centers yeah yeah yeah you know washington but that's a that's a lot of people to just that's a lot I it's in Washington, DC. They're at convention centers. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You know,
Starting point is 00:18:25 Washington, but that's a, that's a lot of people to just, that's a lot of people. And then people are like horny for other scientists. And so they like see their work or like they get drunk. It's like the Olympic village of scientists. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:18:36 I've said that before. I've a hundred percent said that before, Jack. That's amazing. Wow. Yeah. All that being said, we do appreciate you,

I just realized, I think your story just made me realize that I had like a formative experience at a Halloween party when I was in fourth grade. I saw your eyes go black for a second.

Starting point is 00:22:18 The toilet was clogged. I could not unclog it. And then like the games were starting. So I had to abandon my post and go out there and then like everyone was like something's wrong with this the next like focal point of the party like something's wrong with the toilet like it's breaking and i was like oh shit that's me that's me that's me that's me right so i think that god thank you just you just knocked a memory loose i'm gonna you know what i'm gonna call I'm going to call her and work this out.

Every hotel is fairly similar. Whereas you get a completely unique... It's like that part in the rehearsal, the Nathan Fielder show, where he goes to that house.
Starting point is 00:23:35 He's like, everything here is so perfect. You couldn't recreate this with the greatest work of art. He's just looking at the way they leave their shit around. It's just like, that's the most beautiful work of art sometimes it's like the most authentically humane human thing seeing how people live or like raise their kids or play with their dog like it's just like being in their life i feel like is more like intimate than like going out to a restaurant and meeting up and all of the conversation winding down at the predicted amount of time right yeah it's fun it's wild because on the other on the other side of the
Starting point is 00:24:11 coin i love having people stay with me yeah like i love it because then i get to like you know my love languages come out like i'm all about acts of service and shit like that so i start cooking and doing those kinds of things and so like when you experience that on the other side too, that's also a nice way to like kind of remember like that you have a bond with people too. So, and you're not going to get that at the hotel buffet. Right.
Starting point is 00:24:34 And I do, when I go to their house, I do order room service and demand it be served to me. Yeah. You're like, there's not even a menu. What do you mean?

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.
Starting point is 00:28:26 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. And we're back. My God. My God. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:28:56 The GOP debate Wednesday night was a fucking fever dream of hawkish takes and violent fantasies. I would say, I will just start off by saying nothing of substance was really said. The only thing that I was like, oh, that's different is was when Nikki Haley realized that being anti-choice is a political loser. So she basically softened her stance up on the stage and was like, look, some people are going to be pro-choice and that's okay. and some are pro-life but in some states the people have decided and you know i don't know if we should keep dividing the country yeah i was like oh shit okay look at somebody somebody knows how to look at numbers and say that doesn't work but it's a low bar for the gop yeah she's working a crowd too well she did
Starting point is 00:29:42 well at the last debate too and i'm like uh don't be fooled oh yeah well now i'd say everyone now is like it's the the the i feel like the consensus take is now starting to be that nikki haley is the closest one to getting yeah but which like as an indian i just love that nikki haley probably like Nikita or something I don't know what her last name would be no her name is uh Nimarada I think it's her yeah no even it's not even a k no what is her name it's Nimarada Rondawa is her is her like I think pre-marriage name i'm only i'm only referring to her as that from now on okay nimrata yeah okay miss nimrata haley randawa okay miss randawa she and and between her and vivek like wow the representation we get is terrible and i'm really upset about it but you know what we're out there we're at the forefront we're
Starting point is 00:30:48 attempting to be white adjacent good for us you know what i mean like good for us throwing our own people under the bus good for us for throwing poor people under the bus women other people of color marginalized voices as long as ours are heard you know as long as i'm protected yeah as long as yeah i'm protected wow it just you just get secondhand embarrassment you're like this is not what our people are supposed to do i know also the fact that they're in debate and that so many of my brown friends were in debate club that also hurts you know right like it's very painful it's all coming together she does seem to be the best at it she's a she's pretty good at debate and landing he seems like he's like too good at debate and like everybody just like
Starting point is 00:31:33 ran out of what ram swami ram swami was just like debating no he says he just seems like a narcissist who yeah yeah just keeps talking like it's not really clever because people it's not clever for sure like he'll contradict himself in a thing and someone will point it out and he's like yeah but that's not the point and it's like okay just steamroll first uh one fake nerd one of the first uh before we get into outright hawkish policy let's talk about domestic policy ron desantis um was saying that well i guess this does his foreign policy because he's promising to shoot people dead uh if they're drug dealers we're going to authorize the use of deadly force we're going to have maritime operations to interdict precursor chemicals going into mexico
Starting point is 00:32:15 but i'll tell you this if someone in the drug cartels is sneaking fencing all across the border when i'm present that's going to be the last thing they do. We're going to shoot them stone cold dead. Wow. That freeze frame at the end. He does like a little... Head tuck? Yeah. His energy is class like teacher's pet saying, I know you are, but what am I?
Starting point is 00:32:40 After somebody called them an ass kisser. He's just like, is that what you think? Well, you're dead. Yeah. So, yeah,
Starting point is 00:32:50 I want to say a stone cold. Steve Austin did not approve that message. Okay. He's not into shooting people. Stone cold. Dad. That was his move, right?
Starting point is 00:33:02 Yeah. Just shooting people. You got the stone cold stunner and then the stone cold shoot you dead that's wild that he was like we'll just shoot you like yeah like what what did what have we become what is going on yeah this is an official but what have we become this garner is an official miles gray oh so you're a tough guy huh oh so oh you would oh exactly i'd be like oh you're a tough guy, huh? Oh, so you're a tough guy, Ron. Okay, let me call at you over here.
Starting point is 00:33:29 Hey, let me give you a shoulder rub. Get your fucking ass over here. A choke. Hey, you need... Oh, you're tense, homie. You're tense. Let me get your shoulder rubbed. That's such a weird way to end up putting someone to sleep.
Starting point is 00:33:42 Anyway, so, but again, I think... His eyes. Like, just everybody needs to go watch this clip just because yeah i don't know there's something subtly uh just off like just charisma allergic dead-eyed i was covering up his mouth while i was watching that one just like see and his eyes don't change at all like the whole time he's just dead behind the eyes, regurgitating something, you know,
Starting point is 00:34:07 he doesn't believe in or that he's like, maybe he believes in it, but he's like rehearsed it too many times. So like the words are just strength. Yes. It really, it really does feel like that. A lot of these debates,
Starting point is 00:34:19 depending on when they are, they're trying to get the like better ratings than like the genocide that's happening right now. You know what I mean? Like they're trying to just be like better ratings than like the genocide that's happening right now you know what i mean like they're trying to just be like more bloodthirsty and more violent than that because they think that it like views matter because they think that's why people care about the other issues and it's like no it's like people care because people are dying yeah not because of like wanting to picture violent threats like that's not the point yeah but that's completely the assignment that they believed that they received because this whole thing
Starting point is 00:34:51 like this is this basically is just an audition right to see who could out trump trump and all the candidates just basically took that as a challenge to say like who can say the most vile unhinged shit so another thing ronda santosis i'll stay on ron de santis because they started getting on the topic of anti-semitism and i use scare quotes there because they're talking about it in the context of like uh students being at rallies calling for ceasefires and things like that yeah de santis did his best to conflate uh being anti-genocide with you already know this playbook but here's's Ron DeSantis being like, you know what? If you want to
Starting point is 00:35:27 talk that mess, and you're a foreigner, here he goes. I was the first presidential candidate to say, if you are here on a student visa as a foreign national, you're making common cause with Hamas. I'm canceling your visa, and I'm sending you home. No questions asked.
Starting point is 00:35:46 What does that even mean? That's that is so he's like, we want this country to stay a dumb ass country. We don't want any students to feel protected here. We want to send you back to another country. Oh, you're trying to you're trying to make this place a world of more humane place well off you go this is not the school for you and also just like such a specific lane that he's trying or like specific like thing he's trying to stand on is like i was uh the first presidential candidate to call for if somebody is here on a student visa and specifically says the following five words in this order, we need to file a reverse visa on that.
Starting point is 00:36:32 You know, like it's just like, OK, man, like, yeah, you're really nailing it. This is the turning point for your campaign. Fun fact about Ron DeSantis, he was the first presidential candidate ever in all of history. Oh, God. I'm the first presidential candidate to really act dumb about my involvement in interrogations at Guantanamo Bay. There's also that, too. But hey, look, Ron, you got a lot of stuff. I'm the first presidential candidate to put a hit out on mickey mouse so then because this has kind of been like the mainstream
Starting point is 00:37:05 conservative take which is like dude if there's students here on this like ceasefire shit they're out of here that's just that's just what it is tim scott also tried to uh kind of hit that point too but he probably actually did it more eloquently than even ron desantis did here's ron beautifully here's tim scott also saying the same thing about students who are being you know the human i'm really sticking the landing because even then there was a rise of anti-semitism on college campuses we must force the people off those campuses and frankly thank you let me out of our country let me turn to the governor out of our country oh my gosh his fake girlfriend won't let him finish and either will do the debate yo did you know the girlfriend was real the girlfriend's real but how much was she paid i know i know i know i know i like, it looks like you... His Canadian girlfriend.
Starting point is 00:38:05 Yeah, AI generated. Have you talked about that yet? On the show that Tim Scott is like, for a long time, he was an avowed virgin. And then now he's like, I actually am not. But like, that's none of your business. Oh my gosh, the Jonas Brothers betrayal by Tim Scott? Yeah, exactly. And then he's like, I have a girlfriend,
Starting point is 00:38:25 but you probably don't know her. So she doesn't go here. She didn't go here, but she's like really cool. She's like really popular. But I did not know that he had like revealed a picture. Yeah, it was after
Starting point is 00:38:36 it was like this week, right? Yeah, just true. He was holding a blonde woman's hand, which I think was them doing. I guess that's a hard launch, soft or whatever it's something it's a gig for her for sure so i'm not gonna knock her hustle i will say for the point of go back to where you came from uh from all of these republican candidates are you telling like
Starting point is 00:38:58 yakub from brooklyn who is settling in israel to go back to where he came from is that what's happening if everybody's going back to where they came from? Right, right, right. Is that what's happening? If everybody is going back to where they came from, we got to be consistent. Don't ask such a ridiculous question. We see the direction this is all going in. No, it's just anyone who is speaking out against, you know, imperialism and the U.S.'s continued role in horrific acts around the globe.
Starting point is 00:39:22 But we can't have people like that talking that spice when we're here. We can't have anybody talking spice. That's why they want to send all the Indians back. The only advice we will allow is mayonnaise. Speaking of which, Nikki and Vivek, they had some of the wildest things to say when it came to what is happening in Gaza right now.
Starting point is 00:39:44 Voting for valedictorian of worst person ever. Nikki Haley, this is just this is her about her. She had a moment to speak with Benjamin Netanyahu, and this is what she said was happening. Ambassador Haley, what would you do? What would you be urging Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to do? Would you consider a humanitarian pause, for example? The first thing I said to him when it happened was I said, finish them. Finish them. And the reason is,
Starting point is 00:40:11 I worked on this every day when I was at the United... Holy shit, dude. This ain't Mortal Kombat, Nikki Haley. I know. The fuck is finish them? This is just fucking disgusting. I'm sorry. Like, this is's my whole feed is dead children and like these people are just using it for material it's yeah the worst in humanity
Starting point is 00:40:32 it's it's honestly and like to say something like that like that is completely disconnected from the reality of like the death toll of innocent people's like yeah finish them all of it just fuck it over who cares these aren't people like it's so it's so apparent in their words it's it's really unnerving to see this happen consider like every day we're hearing this from politicians ramaswamy also had a thing but he was also using this opportunity to come at the canadian well first he said he wanted to build a wall in canada but then he turned this into a sort of anti-anyone south of the border type take. I would tell him to smoke those terrorists on his southern border,
Starting point is 00:41:12 and then I'll tell him as president of the United States, I'll be smoking the terrorists on our southern border. That's his responsibility. This is our responsibility. That's how we move forward. Wow. He was waiting for the crowd to come in and cheer for that and he was yeah nothing and it's that stand-up cadence where you're like like tries again like oh and i'm gonna keep going and uh that wasn't a clap line that wasn't that wasn't a meant meant to be a dismount where you guys all cheered and carried me off stage on your shoulders that was
Starting point is 00:41:51 just normal this is normally how people also the vague another disagreement that he has with his doctor why first it was the vaccines now it's smoking you shouldn't be doing that yeah okay that's bad for your health does she know know about this? Yeah. So this, that was just kind of the tone of the entire night. And then you're just left with like, it's funny when they did, like, I think on CNN, they've had like the same group of voters in Iowa,
Starting point is 00:42:13 or they've been asking every debate, like, okay, who won this? Like, what side are you on? And like Nikki Haley, they were like,
Starting point is 00:42:19 they were like, yeah, yeah, yeah. I think her, I think her, like a majority of that group thought Nikki Haley won. But at the end of the day, I don't know. I't know who's i i'm i don't know how how that's
Starting point is 00:42:29 gonna happen because it seems at the end of the day it's just all trump they also um argued about tiktok right and he was like your daughter uses tiktok and she's like keep my motherfucking daughter's name out of your motherfucking mouth. She called him scum. Yeah. She was pressed because you could tell she was pressed because she didn't even get the saying keep their name out of your mouth. She said keep my daughter's name out of your voice. Oh, she did say that? Yeah, she said out of your voice. And then she was like, you're
Starting point is 00:42:58 just scum. She quoted Will Smith before he smacked Chris Rock? That's fucking wild. That's actually him and Netanyahu is who she draws inspiration from, actually. What a weird combination of people. That Venn diagram. It's very strange.
Starting point is 00:43:17 Yeah, it's Nikki Haley. But yeah, that was like, he had that kind of like one of those moments too, where he was like confused. Like, how come other people get to say stuff, but can't it's like no one likes you dude it's like like those kids like i'm sure this happens with comedians where like they try and be edgy or like make jokes that just don't sound right coming from them and they're like well that dude does joke there's just material like that like i don't see the difference like you have a completely different energy and you're just you don't it doesn't work because you're a racist bro yeah you can't say that because you're racist okay but the black comedian could talk about it
Starting point is 00:43:53 so he uses the n-word and i can't use the n-word are we for real right now oh okay i didn't know i didn't know okay i guess wow Talk about equal rights. Jeez. Oh my God. That's exactly what the fuck someone like that would say. Oh, right. But we're all equal, right?
Starting point is 00:44:11 Okay. All right. All right. Well, my flight to Austin is about to board, so I got to go. Going up on Rogan's club tonight. Yeah, exactly.

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.
Starting point is 00:46:54 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.
Starting point is 00:47:27 Available now with new episodes every Thursday. Listen on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And we're back. We're back. And as we mentioned yesterday on, I think yesterday's trending, it was announced that Gal Gadot had organized a screening of Bearing Witness, which is a 47 minute compilation of Hamas violence filmed on October 7th, basically a snuff film designed to enrage people and get them to stop criticizing Israel, it feels like.
Starting point is 00:48:10 The families of the victims, the people who are killed in the videos, are like, please fucking stop this. That's not what this is about. They're not here to honor the lives lost. They're not here to honor the lives lost.
Starting point is 00:48:25 They're here to promote the slaughter in Gaza. Essentially feels like what, what this is about. Yeah. Uh, there's also, it's just wild that like, you know,
Starting point is 00:48:37 most people can just hear about things that are happening without having to see graphic depictions and know where they end up with things. Like I can read about what's happening and say, Oh yeah, that's, that's awful. Uh, but it's like,
Starting point is 00:48:50 but do you know how bad is you need to watch this? It feels again, because it feels like the tide, or at least a lot of sentiment is like, now people are just seeing indiscriminate bombing, watching a bunch of displaced people, children, whoever human beings
Starting point is 00:49:05 and it's like okay we need to deploy some kind of shocking piece of media to try and like like rebalance the scales and it just feels so fucking cynical to like cheapen the to cheapen like the deaths of these like these people who died on october 7th to use that in service to justify more death is so obscene that yeah and a lot of the people like some of the people that like the next day or like right after who had family members who died were on on tape like saying like don't use this as an excuse to indiscriminately bomb and the family members don't stand by it so it's just like incredibly disgusting that they because the kibbutz was like a very like peaceful commune type place right and a lot of those some of the hostages were like peace activists
Starting point is 00:49:58 who were interested in peace with between israel and palestine and we're actually like helping like victims of the israeli occupation so like those people obviously don't want that to be the result of what happened to them so it's just disgusting yeah and also like doubt like that it just like gives me the idea of like how much of a bubble they are in like these celebrities are in at the same time that they're not right. Like they're getting, they're getting the prompt to do propaganda and promote propaganda from somewhere, but simultaneously they like don't understand like that the tides are
Starting point is 00:50:36 changing and that there's 500,000 people out in England, like protesting, you know what I mean? There's people, hundreds of thousands of people all over the world who can see what's happening. And so like putting up these images of bodies is not going to take away the images of the other children dying in gaza you know like it's gross yeah i will say one one uh more light-hearted thing that i saw with regards to this is that the Anna de Armas updates Twitter
Starting point is 00:51:07 posted that Academy Award nominee and movie star Anna de Armas has unfollowed a former IDF soldier and attempted actress Gal Gadot on Instagram. And everybody was like attempted actress. Yeah, that Yeah, and I think, you know know like to your point about people demonstrating for people who are old enough we saw this pattern play out on 9-11 9-11 was used as justification to kill countless people and destroy an entire part of the earth and a lot of people are old enough or have the wherewithal or hindsight to say, Holy shit. Like, right. We just got fucking swept up in all that. And look what the fuck happened.
Starting point is 00:51:53 And I think a lot of people are old enough to say, can't do that shit again, because that was fucking terrible. And it not only caused a bunch of terrible things in the United States with Islamophobia and racism, but also the innocent people that lose a lot, like we're losing their lives in Iraq, Afghanistan, et cetera. racism but also the innocent people that lose a lot like we're losing their lives in iraq afghanistan etc and so it's really weird when you see like the the government try and use this same playbook and then they're shocked when people are like yo like that is tragic what happened is tragic absolutely but we are not going to use this as a springboard to take just numerous more lives like that's just not happening so there's also like this weird you're like seeing it like with politicians where like they don't even know what
Starting point is 00:52:29 to do they're like what the fuck this usually like works like if i just say stuff like we're gonna get them we're gonna smoke them people are like yeah man but a lot of people have enough uh awareness around this and education and perspective to know like this is absolutely not the way to go about things but yeah here we are doing this like running trying to run the exact same playbook yeah i think also social media is like a huge factor too because back then like we heard the numbers but it wasn't like made real by images which is what they're trying to do with this this movie but it's like, it's too late. Like we already know the fallout from it.
Starting point is 00:53:07 We already know like the cost and that it's not worth it and that it's unjustified and horrific. Yeah. But yeah, this is it all. Like I remember too, there was a lot of talk to about people saying like, you should like,
Starting point is 00:53:20 people should protest in front of it. And then people like, you absolutely should not. It's like a trap to try and paint like allies like anti-semitic and then that kind of took a lot of like that i think there were less people outside but then even then there were there were demonstrators on both sides and that also led to like just scuffles and shit people are getting pepper sprayed by the cops and all like and we're like we're slowly seeing how much this is tearing people apart just because we can't even get to the part where we're on the same page and be like, yeah, let's just stop the momentum.
Starting point is 00:53:51 We just don't want innocent people to die. Yeah. Can we stop that? But the best people are saying is like, how about pause? How about a pause? Just pause, then resume a lot of people that i know who were very outspoken about and and rightfully so about the tragedy on october 7th have just gone quiet yeah and it's just like horrific to think about it you know like that they that they the tens of thousands of people that have died since then they just are like well i'm just gonna go do my stand-up shows and do and deal with that and like not talk about anything else because it's so difficult to see and i mean like like i've said this in other episodes doesn't matter if you're arab or muslim or jewish whatever like you can see this and have it just shake you to your core and remind you of if you're a if you come from a marginalized group how cheap your life is to the perspective of imperialism and that's that's also like
Starting point is 00:54:54 mainstream narrative exactly and it's and it's it and it's it's it's like can bring up a lot of terrible feelings trauma for people that just in so many capacities. And that's why it's reverberating in a way that it is. Yeah. And it's so fucked up to hear people just say, like, try and reduce that feeling of empathy to, oh, you're pro murder of these, these people who died on October 7. And that is so Yeah, it's it's so infuriating, because to be made to be to try and like, fuck someone someone's head like that to say that like because they are seeing or understanding what this situation is and opposed to it makes them x y or z it's just like it's just this like cycle that's like never ending and i think you we always
Starting point is 00:55:37 see this when there are moments like this where the the topic of oppression comes up and people you know some people figure it out some people learn educate themselves and other kind of their default is like oh no i'm always on the oppressor side right that's yeah that's my thing too it's also like not like something we haven't heard before we haven't been like the global south all of these marginalized groups it's not like we haven't been called savages before or barbarians or animals right we're used to that we're just we just don't give a fuck like we it's it's i don't know it's just it's horrific to look at i think that's like what you said it really hit a chord with groups that have been colonized and and and have had to deal with imperialistic forces just completely ruining families and culture and you know yeah
Starting point is 00:56:30 just taking taking hold in places they shouldn't be so i do think that this people see themselves in palestinians and they are tired of it right yeah uh but yeah it's just like it's so it's again to see the entire like machinery of american imperialism just just go into action to protect like what's happening is like it's it's so it's also like really disheartening too because you're like holy shit man like so much bigger yeah you can see just how much of how much capital like literal capital is even behind it too and we're just brushed aside for asking people to acknowledge the humanity of innocent people if this doesn't radicalize you i don't know what will like this is like seeing the like the usa stamps on those bombs and and like knowing that that some of the things that were used in
Starting point is 00:57:25 Ferguson were made in Israel, like how, how does that not completely shatter your perception of these as like justified? Yeah. And I mean, I see a lot of people too, rather than like there, a lot of people just don't want to engage with it at all. And probably for the fear of like what will happen to their worldview. They're like, it was much more comfortable when i could just be like yeah there's like a part of the world where things are kind of like bad but like things will always be bad so i just want to like keep my focus
Starting point is 00:57:55 here and not really think about anything like that and it's sad because you know with the way our world is evolving or devolving like with climate change and things like that there will come a time maybe it might not be in our lifetime where there is going to be a need to acknowledge the humanity of other people and to move from that from move from that position rather than being like, well, who's this person? Are they expendable?
Starting point is 00:58:17 Is this just the tragedy of war or whatever the fuck people want to say to excuse it? Yeah. But yeah. Yeah. I think it's happening more and more. Like I think, I think it's,
Starting point is 00:58:27 I think it is going to be in our lifetime. I think it's already happening in our lifetime. I mean, it is. And we're also turning a blind eye to people who are displaced by climate change also, but like, and,
Starting point is 00:58:36 and we also see it in the form of like how we look at immigration. We're like, I don't know why they don't stay there just because we completely destabilize that place fucking 40 years ago. I don't know what their problem is. It's like we're still there's a lack of acknowledgement of how all of this is interconnected solely because, you know, people want to or at least, you know, a lot of people want to absolve themselves of feeling that there's anything to do with it or that. And that's why I will smoke them on our southern border. And yeah, moreover, why is nobody cheering for that?

Starting point is 01:00:03 Yeah, of course we know Matt Lieb, one of our favorites. I love Matt Lieb. He has been doing very funny videos, which I think are important. I do think it's important during this time to recognize that Jewish allies are some of the most outspoken at the forefront of being anti-Zionist, anti what Israel is doing.
Starting point is 01:00:25 And I think he makes very funny videos that kind of are from the perspective of like his character is someone who is like a pro-Israel person, but it's very like self-effacing. Yeah, very fragile. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:39 And so he has like a video about how to criticize Israel correctly. And it's basically like, there's nothing you can do to do it. But yeah, it's really fun. I don't know if you want to play that. I just sent it in the chat. Hi, an American Jew. I'm going to tell you how to correctly criticize Israel without being accused of antisemitism.
Starting point is 01:01:00 Here are some don'ts. Do not overstate your case. Don't go throwing around the word apartheid state. Apartheid only ever happened in South Africa. And you can't use that word again. You can't just keep using words. Call it something that is correct, like a kerfuffle. You know, just be like, oh, that's a kerfuffle.
Starting point is 01:01:19 Do not mention the Palestinians or the occupation, okay? If you want to talk about problems in israel talk about how there's a lot of stray cats and how the traffic's really bad do not throw around the word genocide you guys just throw it around like it's just nothing do not support a one-state solution if there was a one-state solution israelis might lose their demographic majority and that is literally genocide do not support a two-state solution do not support a solution what you think you got all the answers you're so smart yeah he's been posting regularly yeah yeah yeah that was the first one that caught my eye i thought it was really funny yeah do you see the
Starting point is 01:01:55 other one he was like talking about like an allyship and he's like my grand he's like he's like and for black people like you gotta know like we've been with you like my grandfather's friend marched with civil rights activists in the 60s it's like he's yeah it's uh it's interesting too because like it's it's sort of like an almost answer to like the kind of stuff brett gellman has been like posting yes yeah it's like all it hits all of the talking points of like self-victimizing people that you feel like you would are unable to address if you're not like jewish you know so he like he he eviscerates them like each one of those points oh no brett gellman has been posting like wild oh jack oh no oh you Jack. Oh, no. Oh, you don't know Jack? Jack. He makes Amy Schumer look like a peace activist. Jesus Christ. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:51 His stuff is wild. It's unhinged. It's not even of this reality. It's really strange. He's like singing weird stuff. It's strange.

Starting point is 01:06:06 i think it's like the only track i could find of theirs called nongoma n-o-n-g-o-m-a and the track is called iskati and i know you're gonna have to spell this i-s-k-h-a-t-h-i uh and it has very like kind of diy bedroom afro beats kind of vibes. It's like, I don't know. It's like, I just, I just like this aesthetic. And if you like, like, you know, like, you know, kind of Felicuti or Afro beats like current stuff, you'll probably like this. But it's got like this indie sort of feeling to it that I haven't quite heard in this genre. So it's really dope.
Starting point is 01:06:41 So check this track out. It's called It's Got Thee by Nungoma. All right. We will link off to that in the footnotes. The Daily Zeitgeist is a production of iHeartRadio.
