Oh, my God. And the Estudiantes fan. Yeah, yeah. Estudiantes de la Plata. Yeah, thank you. Shout out to all the Argentinian soccer fans out there. Pronunciation. Yes, I'm from Argentina.

Yeah. 15. You moved up here when you were 15? I was 15, although I may have been saying that I was 15 15 years ago. Uh-huh. So it's like I lost count. Of your age? I lost count of how many years.

At one point, I just kept saying 15, but it's been like 10 years. I moved here when I was like 12 to 15. It was middle school. It's okay. Look, we don't have to use details, you know what I mean? Because you might be into some spy craft or something. We don't even know if that's your name. My name is Spy Craft.

Okay, good. Welcome, Spy Craft, to the show. And how was that transition for you? A nightmare. Yeah. It was, I started my period the day after I moved to the States. Oh, that's a big, a lot of changes. Yeah, I had no friends.

I had zits. I had, my parents were poor. Right. And I was the immigrant that started her period became an American woman on day one that's one of my favorite children's books actually

the immigrant that started her period I'm writing it down I'm actually writing a book right now and I seriously will consider that oh hell yeah alright we're going to get to know you a little, Zip. Alright, we're going to get to know you a little bit better in a moment.

First, we're going to tell our listeners a few of the things we're talking about today, such as Justin Trudeau, who can't stop doing blackface. Can't stop, won't stop. Or couldn't. He had a problem at a certain point in his life where

he could not stop himself from doing blackface, brownface, whatever. He liked doing that. He thought it was the best. Big Harry Belafonte fan. We're going to talk about this Trump whistleblower story, what we know, what we're waiting to find out at this moment, which is yesterday for those listening. We're going to talk about Border Patrol agents who are feeling sad and down in the dumps. We're going to talk about Instagram and actually doing something, I don't know, kind of good for people maybe. Yeah.

All right. Trader Joe's are doing the opposite and releasing a pumpkin spice latte face mask. We're going to talk about the Navy. They have basically done a villain monologue and admitted those UFO videos are real. But you were never supposed to see them, which is a weird thing to drop in. Be like, but you never, they never should have gotten out. We're going to talk about the Area 51 raid. All sorts of shit today.

But first, Tam, what is something from your search history that's revealing about who you are? I'll tell you the last thing I searched, which is revealing. What is Borscht? Oh, yeah. What is it?

Yeah, I want to know the answer to that. I just know it as a soup in my mind. That's the extent of what I know Borscht to be. Yeah, it want to know the answer to that. I just know it as a soup in my mind. That's the extent of what I know borscht to be. Yeah, it's a beet soup. Oh, that's right. And you use sour cream, right? And you have like a dollop of creme in there or something. I don't remember that part, but I think you're right by the picture.

Because I remember being like, it's not red enough to look like beets. And it's delicious? Did you have it? I've never had it. What sparked the borscht inquiry? I was writing like a parody Russian language tutorial. Ah. And I needed the host to be holding something Russian.

So she's holding a Borscht and a Russian flag. I thought it was just a nickname for abortions. Oh, my. Just shorthand, the most flippant version. Got a borscht, another borscht. Oh, boy. They call him a bobo. The borscht belt was a thing, right?

That's where I have most often heard that. I feel like it'd be cool if there was a bootleg Porsche that was called Porsche. That would be like a Simpsons joke. Because there was that one car that Homer is buying where it's like, oh, the country that this is from doesn't exist anymore. Put it in H. Is that trying to shift it? This is the Porsche.

Oh, my God. The Porsche 411. Are there bootleg cars In the world? Oh yeah I know in China There are cars That are straight rip-offs Of like other cars

In the US That aren't like Widely made But completely just Taking the design And like intellectual Property stuff And like here

Here's a thing That looks like a Mustang Or a Mercedes Oh my god The Lord Locus Or some shit The Lord Locus Oh my god The Lord Kissed That would actually. Like a Lord Locust. Oh my God.

The Lord kissed. That would actually just be a great like Instagram account. Bootleg cars. Bootleg cars in like other countries. Cause yeah. Yeah. Some of the cars in like the former Soviet Union. Like I feel like I've seen pictures of them that are like made on a farm

somewhere with like loose parts from like other machinery. And here's a lincoln's navigation right it's a horse pulley like some have you ever been in a cardiac escapade rappers are driving those uh what is something you think is overrated cocaine okay i did some last weekend. Okay. It was a miserable time. First time, long time.

First time, long time. First time, long time. I hadn't done it in a while actually. And I just realized when I did it, the only thing I like about it is finding it. You know?

You're like, oh, sick. Cocaine. Oh, tight. Oh no. How did it get here?

How much blood was spilled on its way to my brain? I'm just going to start collecting cocaine. Never doing it again. I'm a collector. Yeah, like somebody who collects old soda bottles and shit. This is some 80s cocaine from Miami. Oh, wow. Do you do it?

No, no. God, no. You'll be up all night. Of course not. You'll be up all night. I don't even drink caffeine. If I have to write a show bible for someone's sitcom they

thought up of on the spot again, it's not gonna work. Right. Shit. Depressing. Yeah. I also wasn't a fan when I did it. It just seemed like extra strong caffeine to me. Whereas other stimulants I've enjoyed more. Just trip, man.

It's all about the trips, dude. You know what I mean? Trip? Trip. No, not the drip that would numb your throat and then you're gagging in front of a group of people. I can't swallow. So you're like hallucinogenic.

I like to go, I prefer to expand the outer reaches of my mind yes i've at least i found the most growth out of those versus again you do like uppers and you are talking about literally a bar that you want a sports bar you want to make i keep saying this example a lot because legitimately i thought of a bar with my friends because we didn't like bars in la that you had to use like a password to get into but it's based on trivia that would be shared common ground with the people at the bar you already sound like you're on cocaine

yeah I know but the amount of thought you can't describe it without doing a run on sentence no way versus like being like you know taking mushrooms and being, I should respect my mom more. Oh my God.

You know, like that's more of a vibe, more growth. The number one like insight I've had on mushrooms is like people I should be nicer to. And then I was nicer to them. Yeah. Like after I wasn't a mushroom. Well, I think that's why we're seeing that whole wave of, you know, psychedelics is a form of treatment. And, you know, they're slowly letting the break off of that. Yeah.

Yeah. The last time I took shrooms, I took too much. And I did it with a couple that was getting a divorce. Oh, my God. That sounds like a psychological experiment. Yeah. I've never felt more terrible. And we were camping.

We couldn't get the fire lit. And they wanted to have a couldn't get the fire lit. And they were just, they wanted to have a therapy session. Oh, fuck. I'm so sorry. They're like, Tam, can you facilitate this? They asked me. Can you facilitate this?

Can you just create the space for us to do this right now? And at first I said yes, because I was like, oh, I love therapy. I love to talk. And then it was like, suddenly I was like a cadaver. Like I could see like dead veins that's an actual disorder some people have like mentally is that they start to believe that they're dead and it's like very like persistent they'll like believe they're dead and rotting for like years yet they're in a state of anim state? Yeah, but their brain keeps telling them they're dead.

I wish I knew the name, but I just retain random snippets of information. I love that. I felt like I was dead for a few minutes when I was hungover. Right, sure. But that's it. I just like, you know, you saying that you taking too many shrooms and then being around a couple who was in the

middle of a divorce reminds me of my friend in high school the first time he did like or he did acid but one day he did a lot of acid and uh he was probably shouldn't have gone home but he had to get home to do something and when he got home his mom had his progress report where he had all D's and F's and he came in fucking frying. He was like, fuck. She just goes, hi, your progress report's here that you've been hiding from me and we need to talk. He just passed out.

He had to go to the hospital. Oh my god, overwhelmed with emotion. It was literally like a nightmare scenario. You're on acid and the thing you would probably not want is a confrontation in high school being like, you've been lying about your grades. That was actually nice of his brain to just shut down.

He just basically went to just nonverbal and was like, what's going on? What did you do? There's so many times when I've been too high, and I wish I could just pass out, but you can't. You're just like, God, hates me. Let's start pretending. Yeah. Yeah exactly. Was that you and then you're like I'm dead. I'm rotting.

I'm rotting. I'm rotting inside. Well no because I had to make sure that I was doing the right thing with my hands the whole time so that nobody noticed how high I was. Yeah. No I'm normal. I love weed. I mean look at my hands dude i'm having a great time

we're having fun you've bitten your nails down to the cuticles i feel fucked up right now oh no uh what is something you think is underrated bidet bidets bidets yeah we have them in argentina everyone has them everyone and you can you can wash your butt after you take a dump. Or you can wash your pussy or your balls or your penis. Do men wash their penises? Yeah, they do, right? I like to hose my entire penis and testicles off after urinating. Yeah.

Every time. But I actually can't do it in our bathroom because we don't have a hose. I go around to the alley. There's a hose. It's big and I just use it. Oh, my God in our bathroom because we don't have a hose I go around to the alley there's a hose to be real no not after you're pee peeing but when I'm bathing yes much attention is paid to the genital area

oh right that's the stupidest question of course you wash your hands I do love a bidet because being half Japanese in Japan too like a lot of the toilets have the built in bidet and being half Japanese in Japan, too, like a lot of the toilets have the built-in bidet. And my goodness, the level of cleanliness. At first, I was like, I think it's half giving me an enema. Right.

I was like, we got to get the angles right. Yeah. Hit your angles. Right. And then you're very clean. Yeah, it's wild. Women masturbate on those, too. Makes sense.

If you have the ones shooting straight up. Straight up. Straight up. But we're just walking around with skid marks on our asses. I know. You know? Yeah. The big thing, too, for men, wax your asshole.

Yeah. Shout out to my friend's wife, who is a waxing person, and he had his asshole waxed, and he was like, yo, she waxed my asshole. And I was like, what's good? He was like, my asshole's never been cleaner. And it was like the first thing he said is like, you I don't know man like it's different because men's I mean if you this is a rat's nest sorry sorry listeners it's a rat it's a rat's nest oh yeah I mean I've told I've washed this is gross but I washed my husband's uh butthole the other day is he okay

health-wise oh yeah we just were taking a shower together and we're very close. Just making sure he wasn't bedridden. He was rolling over his punch bag. But I told him, you should get a wax. It doesn't hurt, right? I've never had it.

It wasn't you, it was your friend. My friend, but he said it was fine. Yeah. The vagina hurts a lot. It's like daggers. But the butt, I don't know why. The skin is thicker.

Hey, I mean, whatever we got to do to take down this thicket. Seriously. I have thought often, ever since you brought that up for the first time, I'm like, I now start noticing waxing places. I think I should just be like my partner. Her Majesty, please come in here really quick. I need your help. Oh, man.

Just rip it off like a Band-Aid. Yeah. You're probably at home asshole waxing probably not a good idea. Yeah, no. You probably have a professional do it because I feel like that could lead to injury. At least the first couple times. For sure. And even, I bet even if you are a seasoned waxer, you're probably like, I would never

do that to myself. Right. No, don't do it. I know, I've heard horror stories. Oh, of people self-waxing? Of stitches having to. Oh, wow. Stitches.

Wow. The skin tears, you guys. Oh, fuck. Ripping and tearing. Ripping and tearing. Sorry, everyone's cringing. No, it's good that people know up top what our vibe is right now. Right.

And we're not afraid. Nothing is off topic right now. No. Great. What is a myth? What's something people think is true you know to be false? I mean, this kind of ties back to the last story. But I think that farting around your significant other doesn't kill the mood.

Not that we're going to do it while we're having sex, but I think it's very tender. And it just makes me love him more. It's intimate. It is. His farts make you love him more yeah and i and the other day well if they're super stinky no but if they're just like sound farts like those are so cute right sound farts can be funny oh they're great yeah i love i mean it's it's god's gift to us as humans. I think your husband has good smelling farts, though, is my guess. He does.

Yeah. Is he vegan? He eats like shit, but he's never had a cavity in his life or any- Illness? He doesn't smell? Is that you, Jack? You just raised your hand. Never had a cavity.

Wow. Look at you, that Biden smile. And I've lived with my wife for many years now, and she has cavities. She has all fake teeth. She does a better job of taking care of her teeth than I do. It's just purely luck of the genetic draw. Yeah, luck of the draw. That sucks.

My teeth are a disaster. Yeah. And I take such good care of them. I mean, they don't look okay. I know. Now I'm looking at your teeth. You're like, uh. Very healthy.

They look great, but just the front three, all back here, they're all rotten. It's a nightmare scenario. They're all soft. Yeah. I have really soft teeth. They're like gushers. I know. I'm sorry.

Soft teeth. I know. Just the idea of like... Gushers. Like a soft shell crab is the consistency of your molars. Isn't that a nightmare people have? Yeah. teeth or teeth falling out both yeah i've had both yeah i've had the soft teeth where they're like mealy and kind of like in your mouth my dreams always i my hair grew back oh really yeah and i'm like yeah but then i'm like yo i'm like, yeah, but then I'm like, yo, I'm like, I don't know how I'm gonna tell everybody.

I'm like, yo, this is lit. I'm not going to tell everybody that I'm not going to be friends with them anymore. Cause I'm so much cooler. I was only with y'all cause I was bald and insecure. Now I got my hair back. I'm down for some new friends. What's up,

Jerry Ferrara from Entourage. You want to hang? That would be my miles with new head of hair confidence what did your hair look like were they like goldilocks no it was always like it was always it was weird i would have the hair of like a soccer player that i liked and because i'm half black so it was like wavy i would never have straight like euro hair i would love to see a photoshop of miles with just flowing blonde okay look if someone wants to do a legit Photoshop, put Marco Royce's hair. Marco Royce, who plays for Dortmund,

put Marco Royce's blonde hair on me. Hell yeah. But color it black so it looks more realistic because I don't want to look like some SoundCloud rapper. Right. All right, well, sort of on that topic, let's talk about Justin Trudeau, All right, well, sort of on that topic,

let's talk about Justin Trudeau, who can't stop wanting to see himself in blackface and brownface. He got hit three times in a row. Three times in 12 hours. It was 12 hours? Boom, boom, boom. Yeah. I didn't know. I thought it was before that he had had them spread out.

What do you mean? Oh, that people had found them? Right, but this was the three times happened in the span of 12 hours? No, no, no. Three images emerged within 12 hours. Okay, great, great, great. He did it three separate times. That's what I got. He's like, hey, hello, my darling.

Hold on, man. I gotta do my mammy bit next up at the fucking cross chamber of commerce. No, it's just three separate occasions from his past, but it all just came out all at once. So, I mean, I'm, I'm assuming these aren't the only three examples,

right? I, I, I mean, look, when you look, when you consider the dedication to these outfits, he,

he, he, he didn't half-ass with a black face. So first there was a, a yearbook photo. Again, these yearbook photos coming back on these. I keep telling these kids, don't pose in the yearbooks. Liberal politicians.

Yeah. It's an Arabian Nights themed event. And he is in brown face with like a turban. And getting like kind of handsy with the woman he's posing with. Like has his hands around her neck, around her neck kind of weird way. Um, but,

uh, there's two pictures from that. Uh, one with some women. He was a teacher at a private school. This is like, what did they say? Like 18 years ago,

19, 2001. My God. I mean, so it's not like, it's not like it was like, it's different than like these old Republicans who were like, hey, man, it was the 80s, man. Michael Jackson was big.

It's like, fam. Yeah. No, he's still doing it in 2001. And there's pictures of him with like other, I think, teachers that look like they're of, you know, Middle Eastern descent. And they are like, I can't imagine. They think it's as funny and cool as he does. Probably not.

Yeah. Then there's a picture of him doing day. Oh, and blackface in high school. And then. Oh my. That is terrifying. Yeah.

And then there's a third image where this is a video, and it's very grainy, undated. They don't know when it's from, but he is in black everything. All black everything. Yeah, all black everything, his arms and legs. It looks, to be honest, like a Christopher Lilly character. Yeah. The photo I saw was like, is this Christopher Lilly doing a bit?

It's just a lot of dedication. Yeah. I know that there is an election in about five weeks. So that is going to be interesting. I know there's a lot of people who want him to resign. The one positive I'll give Justin Trudeau is when they asked him if this was racist, he was like, yeah, it's racist. Right.

Oh, thank God. Right. I don't know about all this other shit, bro. I guess I didn't know. I didn't know at the time, but it is racist. So, yeah. Wow. Look, I don't...

It's hard. Part of me wants to be like, yeah, man, just get somebody else in there. But I don't know the politics of Canada well enough. I know progressives do not really love him that much because he talks a good game and doesn't quite back it up. And his record with indigenous people isn't the best.

So, but I know I mean, I know the conservative candidate, probably not much better. Right. Oh, come on. We don't know. Come on, man. He's trying to bounce the budget. But yeah, I think that's where I'm trying to know what Canadians think think do they feel

that he's like in terms of a leader he's stable enough that you can kind of forgive this i don't know where you go from here because he he's gonna have to do a lot more than be like yeah that was racist all right let's keep moving vote trudeau yeah i mean there's so many great people in the world yeah i sound like trump now but like why is why are we having to deal with that? Why is that the like best option? I mean, you know, whatever. That was the stupidest thing I've ever said, but. No, that's a good point though. I mean, it is, it seems strange to me.

There's so many white people who have never and would never do blackface, but like all these white liberal politicians keep getting called out for doing blackface but like all these uh white or white liberal politicians keep getting called out for right uh doing blackface it's and it would also just smacks of the kind of like this shows the kind of person he is like you know his father was the former what prime minister yeah uh and so he you know you're around powerful white people yeah and you don't you probably don't have a you're like i don't know what's offensive. I mean, we run shit. Right.

Yeah. So, and I, then that's where I see, that's probably why a lot of his progressive things that he talks about falls short because I don't think he's really, he's built for that shit.

Right. Because he's sort of like, well, you know, I know how to rule, quote unquote. His center of gravity is still, you know,

a bunch of rich people that he grew up with. Right. Elect poor people. I don't know if Trump is the one who dug this up you know i mean because we see how his wife and daughter look at trudeau every time they're near oh god i would i would look out justin to see if maybe donald trump has his fingers on this but or probably the people you're running that is a story someone needs to write is finding out whether trudeau can still get it like in from Ivanka and Melania yeah oh Melania loves it Melania definitely Ivanka loves it but she can't tell anybody she loves it right you know they had

a threesome with him somebody told me oh really wow I made breaking news allegedly wink wink that would be the part where she said she made it up. That's great. But Trump doesn't have sex with her anymore, right? Well, what are we defining as sex? Any touching. I don't know. I don't know. I don't want to know. I don't need to know because I have enough real life horror in front of me.

Yeah, it's true. There is a story from the, I think it's the 90s, where he took a woman out to dinner and paraded her around and then brought her back to his house. And I think it was a sex worker. And then he paid her and just went upstairs and watched TV. Right. Like he's just like a robot.

Like Ty Cobb. Who is like, yeah, yeah. Just paying people. He was like, you tell them I was the best sex you ever had in your fucking life. That's a great gig though. Did Ty Cobb do that? I'm pretty, yeah. Just paying people. He's like, you tell them I was the best sexier in your fucking life. That's a great gig, though. Did Ty Cobb do that? I'm pretty sure there's a scene.

The presidential lawyer? No, no. Tyrus Raymond Cobb. Okay, got it. Former hit king. Yeah. Who was upended by Pete Rose. I don't know any of those names.

It's fine. 4256 hits. Career hits. Pete Rose. But Justin Trudeau should resign. Yeah. I don't, yeah. What is the, the, whew. Career hits. Pete Rose. But Justin Trudeau should resign. Yeah. I don't, yeah.

What is the, the, whew. Just resign. Does he have somebody waiting in the wings ready to step in? I don't know. See, and this is where our daily zeitgeist scope of interest or knowledge falls short. No, this is a look into America's shared consciousness. Americans don't know shit about Canada. Well, yeah. And also, here's the other thing.

If it's like America, America's not going to do shit about blackface either. Right Well, yeah, and also, here's the other thing. If it's like America, America's not going to do shit about blackface either. Right. So probably he's going to get a pass. Yeah. But I guess that's the thing. I have not followed their election at all. I'd imagine he is the candidate who would have to run

or they could put somebody more progressive up that would have a chance to win. Maybe we'll get JM, our Canadian writer, to catch us up on all this shit maybe we'll get jam our, uh, Canadian writer. Yes. Catch us up on all this shit and we'll report back on Monday. I know. Look, I know there's Canadians.

I gang out there. You're screaming at your iPod right now or whatever. You're, I mean, you're beats by Dre headphones. One of our Canadian listeners tweeted. I mean, was just like,

this is fucked. We're fucked. Yeah. So, I mean, could you imagine like if fucking uh five weeks before the election like bernie sanders and blackface pictures came out like that would be not good yeah yeah yeah yikes for sure and i guess that's the problem though we're an american so

we're so desensitized to so many awful things i I'm like, yeah, I mean, I know that's bad. Is it bad though? I know it's bad. I mean, I know it's bad. Does everybody else know? I mean, Biden is actually probably the more realistic comparison to Trudeau and also the more realistic person to have a picture like that. And Biden is also out loud saying real dumb shit though too between his chain knife know, putting the record player on for babies as a form of remedying slavery. Yes.

I just I was watching a video from elementary school. It was a talent show in Argentina and a girl from first grade did a blackface dance. But I think that's it was. Yeah. But, you know, I mean... That's on her parents. That's on her parents. I remember her mom doing, like, putting it on her. The thing is, Argentina is a super racist country.

Right. I mean, yeah, did a very good job of getting rid of all the indigenous people. Yes. So, like, that's why everyone looks very European. Yes. That's the thing. It's weird because America, people get it because that legacy of slavery is just built into this country.

Some people acknowledge it, some don't. Right. But, you know, in other places, that's why like in Japan, I see it because they don't have, there's no history of African enslavement. Right. There's just like, there's this more island nation mentality where it's like, ha ha ha, we're othering these people. Right.

And then Australia had happened. I remember that video clip where Harry Connick Jr. is doing a talent show and and these dudes do a blackface Jackson 5 thing, and he was like a judge. He was like, I got to tell y'all, man. If I knew that was going to happen, I would not have agreed to be on here. He's like, where I'm from, this has a whole different vibe. Just so you know, this is all wrong. The host was so apologetic. You see the blind spots where they happen.

But at the same time, that's where people got to start fucking waking up and be like, yeah, yeah, yeah. See, there's a whole dark fucking past attached to shit like this. Right. Yeah. All right. We're going to take a quick break. We'll be right back.

Daphne Caruana Galizia was a Maltese investigative journalist who on October 16, 2017, was murdered. There are crooks everywhere you look now. The situation is desperate. My name is Manuel Delia. I am one of the hosts of Crooks Everywhere, a podcast that unhearts the plot to murder a one-woman Wikileaks. Daphne exposed the culture of crime and corruption that were turning her beloved country into a mafia state.

And she paid the ultimate price. Listen to Crooks Everywhere on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, I'm Gianna Pradente. And I'm Jemay Jackson-Gadsden.

I'm Keri Champion, and this is Season 4 of Naked Sports, where we live at the intersection of sports and culture. Up first, I explore the making of a rivalry,

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

From college to the pros, Clark and Reese have changed the way we consume women's sports. Angel Reese is a joy to watch. She is unapologetically black. I love her. What exactly ignited this fire? Why has it been so good for the game?

And can the fanfare surrounding these two supernovas be sustained? This game is only going to get better because the talent is getting better. This new season will cover all things sports and culture. Listen to Naked Sports on the Black Effect Podcast Network, iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

This game is only going to get better because the talent is getting better. Listen to the making of a rivalry, Caitlin Clark versus Angel Reese on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And we're back. And so there's a story of Bruin in Washington. So I'm going to describe what we know, I think. And you can confirm it, Miles. I'll confirm it as an insider with the intelligence community.

So it's a whistleblower event. Someone in intelligence called out something like Trump had a phone call with a foreign leader where he promised that foreign leader something that this whistleblower thought was disturbing and urgent, requiring the attention of Congress. Right. who they were. We know that the next person in the chain of command, if there is a whistleblower within the executive branch who wants to blow a whistle that Congress hears is the inspector general. The ICIG, the intelligence community inspector general. Okay. So the way, like in the White House, there are people who work for different intelligence agencies that work within the White House, but they are not necessarily employed by the White House. Right.

They're just, that's their office they work out of because that information needs to get to the cabinet very quickly or whatever. Then you have people who might be listening in on conversations, as Trump talks about, he's like, yeah, people are always listening and they're transcribing stuff. And then sometimes those notes are circulated. So it could have been something from something someone saw, someone overheard. We don't know quite what happened. But what we do know is that it's clearly an intelligence person because they went to their IG to do the whistleblowing.

Got it. Nothing. I don't care. Yeah. You know, like nothing happens. Right. Like what? So prepare to get even more frustrated.

happens. Right. Right. So this is well, so prepare to get even more frustrated. So the inspector general then has to look at this filed whistleblowing complaint. And the inspector general is appointed by Trump. So it is a Trump appointee. Don't quote me on this because I'm trying to think if the IG is actually not a political appointee, but it could be. So what the inspector general then does has to verify and look into what this complaint is. And then from there, the inspector general then had decided that, yes, this was a credible complaint and it was also deemed urgent. So then what's supposed to happen is then the inspector general would then go to the director of national intelligence, the DNI. general would then go to the director of national intelligence the dni uh that person is the dni mcguire uh who took over for dan coates and so this dni just went to the department of justice rather than going to congress with it once that whistleblower complaint is given to the dni

they have seven days to tell congress because the inspector general said yeah this is worth looking into and they have to say, we have a problem here. This motherfucker says, I'm going to go to Bill Barr at the Department of Justice and be like, what do we do? The answer is, don't fucking tell, shut the fuck up. What a schmuck. Yeah. So now we're at a point where we are trying to decide what this information is, what exactly happened. Because I think for some people, it could be, for one, when they look at the time period in which this complaint was filed,

it's very possible it has to do with a phone call dealing with Vladimir Putin, who was one of the leader who is on the record having a phone call with the president. They've narrowed it down to like five different point leaders. And it could be, right. And it could be other people who might not have been on the record because the president takes a lot of phone calls. But it probably has something to do with that because these intelligence people wouldn't be filing a complaint unless they said, I just saw something that is actually could mean really bad things for the intelligence community, our national security or the way in which we collect intelligence. So it's not like some I think Trump fucking sucks, dude. Right.

Blowing the whistle like too short. Right. No, you're fucking you saw some shit that you really felt I need to stand up and be counted and do something. So a couple of journalists, again, and they're very clear, we don't know what the connections are. We don't know who he spoke with. But there is a sort of an interesting chronology that happens. In July 28th, that's when he announced that Dan Coats, who was the former DNI, was going to leave on August 15th. Then July 31st, Trump had a phone call with Vladimir Putin. And the White House only acknowledged the phone call until the Kremlin, which they did.

They're like, oh, you know, yeah, Putin and Trump had a phone call. And the White House was like, yeah, yeah, yeah. They're like, oh, you know what? Did we not tell you about that? Oh, yeah. That's true. Right. Okay.

They're like, oh, did we not tell you about that? Oh, yeah. Oh, that's true. Right. Okay. Then August 8th, Trump announces that Sue Gordon, who was Dan Coats' deputy, who would have, in normal situations, taken over ZNI, that she would be resigning and leaving her job as well on the 15th. On the 12th, three days before Coats is supposed to leave, is when the whistleblower files

the complaint with the inspector general of the intelligence community. Then the 15th, Dan Coats leaves. And then August 20th, Trump calls for Russia to be allowed to join the G7. Holy shit. And then on August 26th, the inspector general submits the whistleblower complaint to the DNI, the acting DNI McGuire. And that's when he goes to Bill Barr. Then September 9th, because nothing happened,

the inspector general informed Congress. He's like, just so you know, there's a whistleblower complaint. Yeah. But that I believe met the legal threshold of urgent concern, but I can't, I'm not gonna tell you what it is.

Right. But just so you know, that's what's, that's what's happening. And then on September 10th, Adam Schiff asked for the complaint. And then he was like, the DNI is like, no, I'm not going to do it.

And now we're at this weird crossroads. I know the inspector general, I think, was speaking with the House Intelligence Committee recently. I don't know what came of that, but it's very dark. And the DNI is going to, McGuire is going to testify in front of the House Intelligence Committee next week, right? I think so. These things just keep happening. And it's always the same.

It's like everything fits like puzzle pieces. It's so obvious. And then someone testifies. And then a week later, people forget. Yeah, it's weird because in our system of checks and balances, some of these checks ain't working and there is no balance either. Right. So like, just like with Corey Lewandowski,

going in front of the committee to talk about his, you know, his interactions with the president or whatever. He was up there claiming executive privilege when it doesn't apply to him. Right. So and it's the equivalent of us going up there and be like, I'm sorry, Jerry Nadler. I can't testify to the contest of my president because of zeitgang privilege. Right. Yeah. I'm exercising. They're like, what the fuck is that? And because they don't have the power to be like, I'm going to throw your ass in jail right now. And there's all these processes. It's hard to compel people to be honest unless they're straight up like in a courtroom setting, which is why Corin Lewandowski was like, I have no obligation to be honest with the media. So I lie on TV. And yes, if I'm facing perjury or something or making false statements, then I'll tell the truth. Yeah. Maybe. if I'm facing perjury or something or making false statements, then I'll tell the truth.

Yeah. Maybe. But then again, I was, didn't he say something like for the Mueller report and then he said the opposite? Yeah. So even if they are testifying under, well, I don't know if the Mueller report. Well, he was caught. Basically, one of the people who was questioning him during that hearing was an attorney who basically juxtaposed his public statements on TV with what is in the Mueller report.

And he said, so, well, based on this, what you said on TV, were you lying to Mueller or were you lying to TV? And he was like, I did not lie to Robert Mueller. So he's like, so then you were lying on national TV and your public statements. And he was like, well, I don't know.

He was like, well, yeah. He was like, I gave the wrong information, but everyone in the news does. Yeah, and he was like, why should I be honest with them? They're not honest with the people. Right. It was just like, okay, well then that's it does. Yeah, and he was like, why should I be honest with them? They're not honest with the people. Right. It was just like, okay, well, then that's it.

Right, and then CNN was like, hey, come over right after you said that out loud, and we'll let you also spin the fucking story even more. Well, one of the most trustworthy news sources, Trump's Twitter feed during this, he came out and said, come on, me? I'd never be stupid enough to say something on the record that could get me in trouble that's ridiculous essentially which is the thing that he's most known for is saying the quiet part out loud trump yeah trump just constantly i mean he told lester holt that he fired Comey because of the Russia investigation.

And then even told, I think it was, who was it? Not Andrea Mitchell, Leslie Stahl, when he was like, I lie because, he's like, yeah, I lie. He's like, because then it makes you guys all fucking wild and I can just keep it moving because it causes so much chaos. There is a clip, though, of, like, which is a

perfect example of Trump just spilling his guts when he was at the border wall talking about his new wall although again let's be clear there's no new wall they're just repairing shit um where he was saying like you know we're gonna have all kinds of new technology in this well it's gonna be very difficult to cross there's gonna be sensors that people are gonna be watching and he gestures to a customs and border patrol official next to him and goes did you want to talk about that? And he goes, I don't think we should actually be discussing this.

Oh, my God. And then Trump was like, oh, oh. He's like, OK, I like that. But I was actually impressed that someone had realized what the chain of command was. Or at least I'm told not to fucking talk about any of this shit. Because they're like, we don't need to give away the security measures in defense if we're really trying to keep people out who are smuggling drugs or whatever,

not people who are fleeing violence. But the thing about him is he's one of those dudes who loves to brag about some info they have, some hot gossip. And that's how he treats intelligence. Yeah, absolutely. Has people's lives at stake. And when you read about the dude

who had to get extracted from Montenegro for like getting really close to Putin and him just casually shooting off at the mouth about shit. Right. It's like he doesn't realize how this shit works.

It's not like, you know, it's fun and games collecting all this intelligence. Right. Guys, Trump sucks. Oh, whoa. Well, not take. Listeners, hold on.

Come on. That is, those are the sentiments of our guests. Right. And you know us. We say, fuck Trump. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Okay, fuck Trump.

Let's talk about Border Patrol agents because they feel like they're getting a bad rap. Yeah. They're just down in the dumps. They're down in the dumps. And the New York Times did a story. They interviewed 25 current and former Customs and Border Patrol agents. It's a very New York Times-y kind

of piece where they're giving humanity to people who are being inhumane. Because on one hand, the thing that did make me sort of think twice was when you think about why would even someone who is Hispanic or something join up with the Border Patrol considering what's going on? And a lot of it has to do with the fact that you

could have just a high school degree and you can enter the middle class pretty quickly with a border patrol job. And that's the thing. It's like, you can get, make 55 grand or something without a college degree. And then if you're really good within four years, you could be doubling your salary. So that's like a very, and I get it. People have bills. Yeah. And then that's where it starts getting dark though, because you're starting to see people.

I think there are people who probably do feel bad, but are probably financially against their backs or against the wall. So it's kind of tough to be like, how the fuck am I going to pivot careers right now? I only know do one thing. I have bills like, sorry, I'm having to like nurse children and shit or like ignore the screams of children but then they're also very much a contingent

that's very significant within this agency that are full-on trump supporters and they're like we're doing we're doing the lord's work right that's what i sat next to an ice agent who was like a civilian she wasn't like working but i sat next to her on the plane and we got to talking and we were like having a glass of wine together and she told me and I was like oh my god and I looked at her and she was like had like tattoos of like mandalas wow and like she was sacred geometry doing meditate reading about meditation and she was like listen I've been doing this for 20 years um I'm not proud but this is how I earn my living and I kind of can't pivot right now and um she said the only thing that makes me different from the rest of them I mean I wanted to punch her the entire time to be honest with you but um she was

like my co-workers are assholes to the people they deport. She was like, I'm really nice to them. Kindness. I was like, bitch. The effect is still the same. If you're telling somebody, hey, we're about to deport you. We're going to split up your family now. And pull you the fuck up out of your house. I don't care if you're smiling.

Because if you're not saying, hey, you know what? Let's keep this between us. You do your thing. That's not what's happening. Right. But I guess that's the kind of rationalization these people have to make to sort of sit with it. And the thing that they say is right now, the overall picture right now at the agency is that it's just in a political and operational disaster. Like, it's all fucking chaos.

The people have been overwhelmed since the beginning of the year. And a lot of agents, they say, quote, have grown defensive, insular and bitter. The president of the agents union said he had received death threats. An agent in South Texas said some colleagues he knew were looking for other federal law enforcement jobs. One agent in El Paso told a retired agent he was so disgusted by scandals in which the Border Patrol has been accused of neglecting and mistreating migrants that he wanted the motto emblazoned on its green and white vehicles, honor first, scratched off. Whoa. But, you know, I know it's easy for people to be like,

then get a new job. Right. I know how difficult it is to get another job. Totally. But I, how do you fucking live with that? Yeah, nobody's ever asked me to, like, based on my political beliefs, like, change, just quit my job. And that's got to be fucking tough.

Yeah. But doing something like making making like people around you at work uncomfortable by pointing out like that shit is wrong and you know that you don't need to quit but you can like i'm sure the new york times would love to hear from people who are border patrol agents who are like this shit is fucking terrible right which is look that's the piece that they need to have right i still work there and here is like how right this is fucking everything up and i support anything but this administration because they're treating uh human beings like you know shit yeah and the other thing too that was in it was just very interesting a lot of the

people were claiming that you know that facebook group that had all the heinous shit in it was, you know, it's a small minority within the group saying, I don't think so. Um, and, but again, most of the people are saying it's terrible. It's difficult. People hate us. I didn't realize how much people hate us. It's difficult. My wife goes to work. She gets told a bunch of shit. My kids go to school. They get told a bunch of shit. I come home. My parent, my children and wife tell me

all the shit people were telling them on top of the shit I'm being screamed at me. And the only peace I have is when my eyes are closed and I'm unconscious. Yikes. Damn. And it's so like, that's bleak. That is bleak.

That's where I'm like, is how do we, is there a way to humanely be able to offer people an alternative? Because I understand at the end of the day, this is sort of the cycle we're in. You become dependent on your paycheck to live and you have other bills. And if you are not serving whatever your larger master is, then you might as well wither away and die. Yeah.

Like I. Yeah. I mean, this is completely different, but my parents drive food trucks and they've been doing that since we moved to the U.S. because we just, they got to work, you know, and we came with no money. And now they're in their mid 60s. And this is like a physical job. They're like lifting like boxes and driving, starting like 4 a.m. And they can't quit or they can't pivot.

Right. Yeah. Because again, yeah. And also when you think about what the wages are, it's not enough to do that. It's not enough to be able to retire. It's only enough to, it's basically like breathing. Right. The second you stop, you're fucked.

Right. And my dad's an architect. Yeah. So like he just didn't have time to like learn. He learned everything by hand, you know? So like he'd have to go to school, learn AutoCAD, all that shit. And there's no time.

And now he's 60. So completely different from an ICE agent, but that's the situation. Yeah, no, exactly. And I think that's why it's even more important to even consider like why there's, that situation is part of a bigger issue about wage stagnation

and the ability of people to be able to pay their bills and the ability of people to be able to pay their bills and things and not have to be like, well, I don't know what else you're going to do. Right. Because you got to keep doing it because the second you don't, it's game over. Right. This will blow your mind. I met a guy the other day at a party who came here illegally and he's a Trump supporter and he doesn't, he can't even vote't even vote but he is like obsessed with Trump and I'm like what are you doing? It's more

like the join the people that hate you mentality there's like internalized shit. Well yeah it's the exact same thing I would rather be with these people being like I'm their token and they'll pat my back and pat my hair and say good boy or I can be one of the think for yourselfers on the other side.

Right. And I'd rather not have that energy. So I'll set aside my own humanity for the comfort of not being othered by this very hateful group. It's fucked up, man. The other thing that was in there too was this, how awful the culture of abuse against women is like within the agency too, like their employees because it's just it's this it's self-reliant just all men they're in the fucking desert with no dash cams body cams yeah um one of the agents only five percent of the agents are women um and some

that were interviewed were like i love it and my male colleagues are great others were saying it's a demeaning place to work you're assaulted by co-workers one woman uh and they're described or in their state written statement described being forced to perform oral sex on fellow agents and like all this other shit and it was just saying i never ever met a female agent that was not targeted by the male agents oh like the whole thing sounds like a fucking hellscape do we know how much they make they start at 55 i know like you can start at around 55 000 yeah and that's tough that's yeah and you're living in a border town yeah your bills are low that's fucking that's that's a lot of money for being yeah yeah and and that's like what's awful too it's like though this system is also set up too where you can make people do evil because what are you going to do? Right.

You're going to leave? What? And do a spin a sign for a new fucking pizza shop? Yeah. Or a new IRS tax preparation service while you're wearing a fucking Statue of Liberty outfit? Oh my God. I'm so depressed. Yeah.

Yeah. I mean, it's a bad system. We make people work themselves to death. Right. And you think of all the things that they go to, your health care, your housing. That's why you need candidates like Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren who are saying health care is a right. Housing is a right. Not a fucking can you afford it.

If not, peace out. peace out right and i think that's what and because we have we have that attitude towards things that we should believe as being basic human rights that creates a system where now you have to be stuck doing this thing just to fucking live yeah but also like you know i i feel really torn up about this whole piece because on one hand i really i can empathize with the idea of being locked financially in a situation and then yeah it must kill you to do that if i look at it as a human i would rather choose to believe that every person is just some gestapo nightmare fucking racist yeah but you know fair play to the new york times for humanizing a group of people who i normally wouldn't want to give the time of day to but

it's true not you know they're that's it's difficult. Right. I'm glad the piece came out. It's good to read that. Yeah. It'll very much at least give you an idea of how fucking terrible it is. And the other thing they said, too, is because they were working on the border, even in the Obama administration, they knew this, the crisis was going to get worse. It was going to become a crisis. Right. And they were like, we are understaffed here.

We don't have enough money. It's like, we got people coming in and we literally, the only place we can put them is somewhere, you know, whatever. But again, that's up to the leadership at the highest levels of the agency to sort out rather than all of this falling on the people who prior to these policies,

mostly, although they were rounding people up, were like, I did it to like catch drugs. Like I used to want to see smuggling drug smuggling and now I'm more of like a caretaker and I'm ill equipped this lady also said the ICE agent plane person said

well the Obama times were just as bad he deported a fuck ton of people yeah he did so I mean that's why I'm like the whole the whole agency itself is a fucking problem. Yeah. All right. Let's take a quick break and we'll come back and talk about pumpkin spice latte face mask.

Caitlin Clark versus Angel Reese on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcast or wherever you get your podcast. And we're back and Trader Joe's has released a pumpkin spice face mask. Come on, let's give it the full respect. A biocellulose face mask. My bad. Seasonally spiced with scents from clove leaf,

orange peel, and ginger root oils, this gel-like biocellulose mask is set to soothe and moisturize your pretty parched visage with ingredients like aloe, pumpkin seed, and turmeric root extracts, colloidal gold, and hydrolyzed silk protein. That feels like it would burn my face. Right.

Yeah. Or like turn into like a sticky syrup. Yeah. Pumpkin spice is mostly sugar as far as like any that I've experienced. Yeah. I don't get a turmeric note when I have the pumpkin spice. Can you imagine putting it on

and the turmeric just fucking turns your face yellow? You're like, oh my God, you have jaundice? Oh my God, you're like screwed for like a week. The thing I think about

with all those flavors, it reminds me of the paper at the bottom of a cupcake when I was a kid. I feel like I'm gonna take the mask off and just chew on it a little bit. Right. See if there's any flavor in there.

Yeah, yeah. Because if it's really like, if they're really riding that wave of pumpkin spice, it's going to have to fucking smell right. Yes. I mean, I love eating things you're not supposed to eat, like chapstick or soap.

Not eating them, but taking a little nibble. Yeah, just for the rush. Just to test it out. Yeah. Just to make sure it's actually not good tasting. But hey, maybe I'll take another bite. Is there anything that you've been pleasantly surprised by?

Chapstick wasn't bad. Which one? The cherry? What's the basic chapstick brand? I think it's called chapstick. Yeah. No, it's more like, it smells like cocoa a little bit. Oh.

It was very buttery. Like Carmex? No, it was like a buttery taste. But I liked it. I like where we're talking like it's a food show all the time. Yeah, yeah. It was notes of butter. Did you say like Car-Max?

Car-Max. Car-Max. Oh, Car-Max is a type of, okay. Car-Max is the gooey one. Yeah, yeah, that comes in a tube. Yeah, I used to have a boyfriend that wore a lot of Car-Max, and it looked like he had really shiny lips all the time. It was very unattractive.

It was always like, oh, yeah, because that's like the weird devil's feedback loop right with chapsticks like is certain ones will sort of make your lips dependent on it so you will constantly have to reapply yeah did i not hear that no no that's true yeah it dries them essentially you it's like one of those medications that gives you a false dose of something that your body already produces. And so your body starts relying on the medication. Oh, to kickstart that. Yeah, so your lip stops producing the thing that the chapstick is providing.

That should be illegal. Yeah, I agree. Let's talk about real problems. Hey, bienvenidos to the estados unidos because we're all about scamming motherfuckers out here. You need those. Right. the status you need-os because we're all about scamming motherfuckers out here. You need those. Right.

But yeah, I just, I've, honestly, all I think about is I want to taste this face mask. Right. Otherwise, it's just a face mask

and you're putting in an orange envelope and riding a profit wave. Yeah. It's only three bucks a mask. I don't know what that rates and I know you know about face masks.

Is $3 a mask good? Is that low? $2.99 is usually. That's like a Trader Joe's level? Oh, okay. Shit. All right. We should just eat the pumpkins like we're supposed to.

Like God intended. Yeah. I love pumpkin. Yeah. You do? I love pumpkin. I do a puree at home. I put a little butter in it.

Like a bisque? Like a bisque, but not quite as soupy it's like you mash it with a fork where do you get the pumpkin from like you buy a whole ass pumpkin uh yeah see in my mind in the ass i never in my mind those pumpkins you see at the store for carving are for carving right i don't think of people being like i'm gonna eat that take that home yeah my mother-in-law is uh korean Korean, and we had these pumpkins that were sitting out around Halloween. And she was like, well, that's a waste of pumpkins. Pumpkins, yeah.

And carved it up, cooked it, and made pumpkin soup that filled our entire fucking freezer for the next two months. It's good. There you go. It was really fucking good. Yeah. We eat, in Japan, kabocha, but that's more squash, technically, but we call that pumpkin. Like a butternut squash? Yeah, it's very

delicious. Yeah, in Argentina it's the same, and we call it squash too. Okay. Yeah. So we know a lot about squashes. Yeah, we're just connecting bridges here. The word squash is funny. It's a great, great word. Yeah. Where'd it come from? Onomatopoeia? I think squash.

I would guess it's a Native American word. Or Latin. Squash, etymology. This is the thing we really, this is the important shit we like to talk about. Yeah. And I don't have that. Yeah, I had so many opinions about the squash

and I had nothing to say about the rest of the shit. Let's talk about what maybe is the only story we should ever be talking about. The fact that there are actual ufos on camera that we've seen doesn't mean they're aliens man that are doing impossible things i know that shouldn't be possible that like you can hear the pilot on the video being like holy shit they're flying against the wind and they're just like going so fast they can't even like the camera can't even keep up,

and then they just do a 90-degree turn and shoot off in the other direction. Yeah. Was that video new? No, no, it's an old video, but we had never- Because I just remember Sky Tic Tac. So it was provided by Blink-182 before, the dude from Blink-182 and his mission to the stars or stars Academy. Yeah. Right.

The stars thing. And people were like, yeah, it looks like really official Navy stuff. And like a lot of people were saying it's probably real, but the Navy came out and was like, those videos are real, but they weren't supposed to get out,

which was amazing, which is kind of a weird statement. The heck was that? I love that. Yeah, I know. I get so happy when I hear about The heck was that? I love that. Yeah, I know. I get so happy when I hear about aliens. Right?

Love them. Yeah. But please don't destroy us. I hope they destroy us, honestly. I'd rather them destroy us. You know, honestly, yeah. You're right. You're right, actually. When I think about it, if we got to die by all together, fucking aliens would be the

coolest thing. Yeah. Or to see a big ass asteroid just come like the sun go dark and be like yo I think about that all the time

when I'm walking down the street do you want an apocalypse I have annihilation fantasies too do you want an apocalypse that is over

like that like sun goes dark and then gone or do you want one that like you got a couple weeks to say goodbye

to your loved ones no no no cause it'd be chaos in the street if that was the case I would do like a suicide oh really yeah i wouldn't wait till the end it would be too much if i knew it was gonna end uh i i feel like you would see society completely collapse yeah it would be a disaster so i think versus i would like me two three hours yeah but then even then those two three hours gonna be wacky yeah right

i would like to be like okay okay, aliens cut me a deal. Like if I'm on vacation with my family, let it happen. Right. At least be like, hey, we're together though. We're together. Yeah, we're in the living room. Check this out. Here they come.

Yeah. Crack a bottle of wine open. Because I think I would feel bad if I was, you know, with y'all right now. Right. And I'm like, damn, I would like to see my grandpa. Like I would like to see some other people real quick. Thanks a lot, man. Oh, that's nice.

I'm just keeping it real. I'm just keeping it real. I'm just keeping it real. I don't want anybody to know because when that shit goes down, inevitably, because I'm with everybody so much and it happens, I'll be like, you know, it's not how I wanted it, but let's make it work.

I was just going to say, I hope I'm not with my kids. I'm here with Miles so that I can tell him how much he means to me. Anyways, the reason they came out and we're like, and it's not supposed to get out but yeah it's real is they are encouraging people who witness these ufos to report them because in the past people who work for the navy would see them and just be like well shit everyone's

gonna think we're crazy right we like you know say that we saw a ufo so they're saying don't call them ufos they're uaps unidentified aerial phenomena oh and they're they're just like more pissed that these objects are breaking into our airspace without like any explanation or warning right because i was gonna say like maybe that it without like any explanation or warning. Right, because I was going to say like, maybe it's like an asteroid or a flying star, but no, they're actually under the atmosphere. Yeah, and they're moving around freely like in directions.

They're moving in. Like it's piloted. Yeah. Not just like flying into the water. It's like stopping. Nope, this way now. Right. You know?

Yeah. I'm excited. That one video too, I just like the excitement of the Navy pilots because they're like, oh shit, did you lock on it? And it's like, no, man, I'm tracking. You can tell that they're even like, what the fuck are we looking at? And I'm excited as a human being because I've not seen

anything that is outside of our realm of understanding. So are they visiting and taking pictures? Who knows, man. We have no idea. Imagine if you had an answer for me. So here's actually So are they visiting and taking pictures? Who knows, man? We have no idea. There's also like images of- Imagine if you had an answer for me. So here's actually- Actually, the reconnaissance missions actually occurred in the 18th century.

This is final planning for your invasion. Right. There are videos of them like hovering above the ocean. Now, these aren't like the Navy videos, but hovering above the ocean, the ocean's like boiling underneath them. It's so crazy, man. I mean, whatever it is,

it's definitely a phenomenon. Yeah. I say bienvenidos. Yeah. A los Estados Unidos. A los Estados Unidos, bienvenidos. Bienvenidos, mi amigos. Welcome.

Well, so the military is not saying that to people coming to Area 51. Yeah, because today's the day. Transitions are lit. Today's the day. Today's the day that was initially announced on that Facebook group, Storm Area 51, they can't stop us all. Kind of a weird coincidence that that other story would come out the day before. initially announced on that Facebook group, Storm Area 51, They Can't Stop Us All. Kind of a weird coincidence that that other story would come out like the day before.

Yeah, I think it came out a few days ago, but yeah, maybe the Navy is like, look, we're going to admit it. They're real. Just like, don't go to Area 51. We don't want to have to shoot you all. Yeah. I mean, yeah, that group got canceled

because it became so many people were joining and then the government was like do not fucking even think about doing this and they visited the dude who planned it or who started the group and they were like you don't want this like they not like this this is not gonna go well for you or any of these where is area 51 nevada right yeah nellis air force base facility i think i feel like we all have one friend who Well, for you or any of these people. Where is Area 51? Nevada. Right. Nellis Air Force Base facility, I think. I feel like we all have one friend who would go to that thing. I have two at least. I have three friends I think are going.

Oh, really? We're definitely thinking about it when this shit even was canceled. I don't know if they still did it. People were talking about it almost like it was like Coachella. Right. People were going to go and party. To set up. That's what they did.

I think they did another one called like Alien Stock or Woodstock or UFO Stock type thing. But that's going to be at that Vegas Convention Center or something. Yeah. So that's like a. That's just for money. That's just for people to like sell like bootleg Bart Simpson alien t-shirts. Kind of cool. I'd go. Also, check out the new Daily Zeitgeist merch where there's bootleg Simpsons.

Oh, it's out. Hell yeah. Merch announcement. Shoehorned in the middle of a segment. Bootleg Simpsons. Yes. Zeitgeist shirt. I love me a bootleg Simpsons.

It's my favorite. But so then there's also a group called, there's a, I guess this new entertainment shopping complex called Area 15 that's in Vegas. And I think part of their promotional thing is like, hey, man, we don't care if those people quit. We're going. And we're going to live stream the whole thing. So if you're on a shopping complex,

if you're listening to this on Friday morning, check this out. Maybe the live stream is happening. You might be able to see a group of bored people that want to feel what it's like to be shot by guards protecting a secretive military installation. Just getting turned into hamburger meat. And then also, two Dutch guys, one was a YouTuber and his friend were arrested for fucking snooping

around like past the perimeter fence. Snooping around, I imagine them like ducking. Yeah, exactly. And then like when the spotlight hits them, they like freeze. But like when they ask them, they're like, are you here for that dumbass Facebook group? They're like, we're not here for the lols, exactly. And then like when the spotlight hits them, they like freeze. Yeah. But like when they asked them, they're like, are you here for that dumbass Facebook group? They're like, we're not here for the lulls, man. Their quote was, we're not here for the lulls, your honor.

My honor, I'm not here for the lulls. I'm a military guard. What the fuck are you talking about? They said the two Dutch guys were caught. They said we didn't have any intention to storm it because we leave on the day before the actual storming. So, well, how could we do that? And they said, and we just wanted to like, quote, go there. Right.

So a thing that I feel like people don't realize is that the gate is not like right next to the warehouse where they keep the aliens. It's area 51 has a lot of area. You should like do the research. It's a whole area. Yeah. There's like miles and miles and then a mountain between you and anything you're going to want to see. So you can't just like sneak past the gate and then like tiptoe around and find what you're looking for.

Yeah, like in their fantasy heads, they're like, oh, there's going to be an alien guard. Yeah. There he is. On like a cigarette break. Right, right. Oh, shit. Putting a cigarette. oh shit putting a cigarette like i gotta get back man my shift oh shit you're gonna find out i smoke that or in the movie version they're like wandering through it's like the second day they have barely any water and like oh this is a mistake dude and they trip on like the secret hatch that's like the back door into it yeah

and they go down and it's like that coffee break room in Men in Black. Right. They're like, Viennese cinnamon. Oh, my God. The coffee flavor. I think that's what one of the guys was drinking. Recall. You know why?

Because at the time, I did not know that Viennese was an adjective form for Vienna. So I was like, did they say Vietnamese cinnamon? And then as a kid that was really fucking with my head then I looked it up I bought a book that was a shooting script of Men in Black

read the words out loud and then realized what Vietnamese cinnamon was it was fucking you up that Vietnam had its own cinnamon I didn't know what it was I was like

in my mind I was like that's not a coffee flavor right because my mom drank was a coffee snobbish growing up and I was like

I never heard no Vietnamese cinnamon. That's how much time I have as a child and even to this day. Yeah, I was going to say, you know so much. And yet I know so little. Well, compared to me, you know so much. I don't know anything. Oh, come on.

I know less than you. And we just met. That's not true, but thank you. No, it's true. Well, it's been a pleasure having you. Humility battle, Tamara. No, I truly know less than anyone. No, I'm a fucking idiot.

No, honestly. I'm like, I need assistance breathing. Tamara, it's been a pleasure having you on the Daily Zayka. This was so fun. I'm going to miss you guys after today. I'm going to miss you the most. Who's going to miss me more? I jumped it.

I said the most. He said it first. Although, hey, look, I know who I'm calling if the alien countdown happens. Right. And we're in the same area. I'm like, hey. We'll have a glass of wine. Have a glass of wine.

Maybe some acid. Maybe some coke. Yeah. I'll smoke a blunt just to the face just be like yep yeah me too and then i'll picture the the last three hours will last for like 12 hours of my brain just like uh do you think the aliens are gonna think i'm stupid are my hands what the fuck you talking about dude they're fucking oh my god they just vaporized dan what if we looked and there was one outside with a pumpkin spice mask on?

It's like, you know what? Maybe we'll save your planet if this is what you're doing. Where can people follow you, find you, see you? I'm on Twitter at danceswithtammy's. Worst name ever,

but it was a long time ago. I don't know. It was a play on dances with wolves which i've never seen which was popular when you joined twitter right right three years ago uh yeah that's it and on instagram i'm tamara yahia and but with a j with y-a-j-i-a oh and I have a podcast called Chorizo Talk with Tammy Adia, where I talk about shit and farts the whole time. For real? Kind of.

Why Chorizo Talk? Because me and my sister eat a different sausage every episode. Wow. That's the like, we don't even talk about it. Now we just eat it and talk about shit. Yeah, I want that choripan. Choripan. Yeah.

And you sometimes get drunk on Funny or Die. And I get drunk on Funny or Die and I watch movies I've never seen. I just did Labyrinth with my, no, not Labyrinth, Never Ending Story with my sister. What's the best movie or the movie that you were mad that you were missing out on the most? Shrek, I think. You really liked Shrek. Yeah, I liked it.

I wasn't like crazy about it, but it was cool to see. And I'm glad I held off for it. Yeah. It's a foundational text. I think so. For American pop culture. Yeah. It's our Hammurabi's code.

Yes. And is there a tweet you've been enjoying? Well, I, this isn't a funny tweet, but did you? I'm going to read it. I have it right here. So this was like two days ago, and I just couldn't believe it. It's posted by Newsweek, and it says, Massive semen explosion after blaze hits bull artificial insemination facility.

Firefighters forced to dodge projectiles. Yeah. That's Wait, so what was weird about that? What's the odor? Just the thing. A cum factory exploded. Burning cum? Yeah. Burning cum is the worst. Imagine being

a firefighter having to go to that. Dodging projectiles? And being like a homophobic like toxic bro it's like dude i can get near that someone's fucking cum flying on us dude no that shit burn it's bull cum too bull cum but they say it was probably very devastating to that agricultural sector because it was like they they need that was valuable cum right yeah and bulls are you know their refractory period is takes a while. I think saying that's bull cum instead of bull crap is a good new direction to take. That would be so jarring.

Man, that's BC. What? Before Christ? Oh. Do you think it's white? Like male cum? Like human cum? Yeah.

Is cum another color? Hey, if you're a veterinarian, let us know. Yeah, are there other colored c colors? Is it yellower? There must be because, I mean, animals have like other color blood. It can't be that cum is the great equalizer. Maybe there's like pieces of something in it.

Pieces of me. It's like birthday cake. Birthday cake cum with like multi-colored funfetti in it. The doctor sees that and is like, um um you should stay right here i need to call the cdc oh my god uh if you have funfetti come uh dial in funfetti come is great uh like just funfetti shout out or just regular confetti confetti that's oh dry that would be dry made a little like uh that's cute.
