It's a wild, like the whole thing's about like single people let me just read this thing that it says there are several benefits to being unattached singles can come and go as they please with no regard for to a partner's schedules wants or needs career opportunity a single doesn't need to consult a spouse before accepting an offer
Starting point is 00:02:18 it's also easier for a single to keep up healthy habits there isn't anyone to sabotage their efforts to work out and eat healthily it's a very interesting take i do remember and this might have been bullshit like there was a lot of data from that uh remember that there was that website for people who wanted to cheat on their spouse and they came out with data and they were like our most popular day is the day after valentine's day because people are disappointed by whatever they didn't get yeah yeah hey empower yourself empower there you go be aware of your potential to be a single craft i mean but also february 13th is now is national side piece day that's right no one. Gotta take care of them real quick. Yeah, side piece awareness. We're raising awareness around the side piece.
Starting point is 00:03:09 I mean, I've accidentally been a side piece. And once I found out, please know that that man had a bad day. Right. Did you find out one of those ways where, like, the, you know, the fantastic way where someone rolls up, like, in the middle of something? Do you get a text? Do you get a DM? Or how did you put it together? Oh, she called me. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:03:31 And I was like, first of all, I said, sis, sis, sis, you mad at the wrong person. Right, yeah. She's like, and as a woman, stop it.

Starting point is 00:03:56 you if i had known he was in a relationship i would not have talked to him yeah right now there are times i dealt with men who are in relationships yes and i made that and i made the decision on my own but the time there are also times that i did not do and most of the men i've dealt with in my life have not been in relationships and the time that i was not trying to be a side piece is when some girl called me right upset sometimes i'll be crying on the phone i'm like hey hey hey hey whoa whoa yeah i'm, whoa, yeah. I'm not the manager. Girl, I don't know you. Also, break up with this dude.
Starting point is 00:04:30 Not for my benefit, for yours. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, oh, you want me to break up with him? Girl, listen, he already cheated on you with me. I don't want to talk to him because I know he'll cheat on me with someone else. Right, right. Exactly. Also, the thing is, like, because people are talking about, like, Alicia Keys the halftime show, and it's just like, oh, her voice is a comeback.
Starting point is 00:04:46 She stole that woman's husband. Let me tell you something. Little Mermaid. It was like the Ursula of it all. Here's the thing. The whole thing of like she stole that woman's husband. What that does is it takes all of the responsibility away from the man. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:03 He is married to somebody. she is not yeah if he doesn't tell her fine even if he does tell if i okay he tells her she's like fine i don't have a problem with that you can't make a man stay don't want to leave you can't make a man leave don't want to stay it's a known fact right so she did not steal swiss beats from nobody right swiss beats left his wife right yeah that's the that's this that's the accurate description that's the action yeah if someone steps out in their marriage it's because they stepped out in their marriage another person did not pop up and go hey look at these ankles come on the ankles is what got him truly the ankles and the wrists that's what makes
Starting point is 00:05:42 us cover them because the ankle and the wrist the That's what makes us cover them. Because the ankle and the wrists, the shoulders, believe me, in high school, I was like, why are my shoulders covered? Who gives a shit? And then I have heard men talk about shoulders. I was like, ugh, I didn't know. Yeah. But yeah, that whole concept is stupid. But hi, I'm here. I'm Dulce.
Starting point is 00:05:56 Here he is. Yeah. We do have to introduce everyone, all three of us, because our listeners have no idea who's talking right now. My name's Jack O'Brien, a.k.a. And and i don't ever wanna take my baja blast with cream make it a sorbet or just please miss me that is courtesy of ec earful on the discord 1229 shout out to you shout out to tagobel trying to drop a baja blast ice cream that is cream-based it's not a sorbet it's a cream-based baja blast baja blast is not one of the beverages that i can conceive of being good in a creamy state nah miles we did not get your opinion on that but it's okay it's better
Starting point is 00:06:38 you don't man i'm just you know i'm just trying to it's like gatorade like it's like trying to be like uh do you like your Gatorade with cream? Like, no, no. What? This is refreshing. For me with that. Baja Blast is like Baja Blast gives me the feeling of like going down a water slide. Like it's refreshing.
Starting point is 00:06:56 I don't want it creamed up. I need milk in that process. I get it. It's like, well, have you ever had a frosted lemonade from Chick-fil-A? No, I've always had uh sweet tea when i'm there so a frosted lemonade from chick-fil-a is basically a lemonade with soft serve ice cream in it and how is it delicious really yeah well then i mean i can see that's like a creamsicle type thing except with like right instead of orange because i enjoy a baja blast so this is all you have to do is you truly take a baja blast and you could do the ice cream take the carbonation out reduce it
Starting point is 00:07:32 to a syrup you flavored your ice cream i think the problem you have is carbonation it might be carbonate i mean i like a coke float a root beer float like so all of this also all of this is i've had a coke float a root beer float Beer float, a Cheerwine float. Cheerwine's amazing. Yeah. All they have to do, instead of making this an ice cream, make this a float situation. I've done a Sprite float. It's very nice.
Starting point is 00:07:53 Yeah. Ginger Ale float, too. I love a Ginger Ale float. Yeah. If they do a float as opposed to a true, true ice cream, you're fine. Yeah. For some reason, my brain, and I acknowledge i'm wrong here but my brain has trouble crossing the barrier into float if it's not a brown liquid for some reason like coke and
Starting point is 00:08:14 root beer makes sense to me i guess orange i would i could fuck with orange because of creams just try it yeah just try it but i don't know. I just, I need to get more comfortable. Go ginger ale. You know, that's a step down. Yeah. At least it's light brown. Ginger ale seems wise to me.
Starting point is 00:08:30 Ginger ale is medicine, so I don't understand how. That's how I took my medicine with ice cream. Probably negates the medical benefits. I'm thrilled to be joined, as always, by my co-host,
Starting point is 00:08:42 Mr. Miles Gray. Oh, yes. It's the heartbroken Miles Gray, a.k.a. Now that our fling is over, you got time, time to eat your burrito. Stop crying. Stop crying. Stop crying. Welcome to Oink's Designer.

Gotten into your bag, really hit your comfort level, really just in your grunge era. It's giving us 90s realness.

And now author.
Starting point is 00:10:12 You've seen her on The Great American Joke Off. Heard her voice on Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me. And as Honey Bee in the Fox animated sitcom The Great North. And now you can read her words in her new book, Hello Friends, Stories of Dating, Destiny, and Day Jobs. She's currently on tour with the book. Might be coming to a stand-up comedy theater near you.
Starting point is 00:10:34 Please welcome back to the show Dulce Slay! Dulce! We did it. We did it. I'm here. You are here. How's book tour life? It's simultaneous with the stand-up. Right.
Starting point is 00:10:49 Does that make it easier? Is it more stressful to do kind of both? No, because I'll have press during the day and then shows at night or a book signing. I got a book signing in Arlington, Virginia last Saturday. So it's really just, it's just doing all, it's doing like multiple things at once. So like once I'm in a city, like let's, let's hit this. And so it's actually just capitalizing on the dates that I already have. And so it's saying to people, like while I'm doing a show, like, Hey, I've got a book signing on Saturday. Or if I'm at the book
Starting point is 00:11:21 signing, be like, Hey, I have a show today right so they've kind of been helping each other which is what the goal is oh dope how much longer are you doing it for probably in the march i mean i have stand-up dates going into you know all year right right right um but the crazy thing is it's like you can't get as many because like when the strike hit right anybody that could tell a joke because we don't know how long the strike was going to last so anybody that could tell a joke yeah in any form or fashion like got all these club dates everybody got all these club dates because nobody was working right and so now you're just like i'm just i'm just trying to get some dates and so but like now stuff is back because i was talking to a comic that i know and he was like man i booked all this stand
Starting point is 00:12:05 up while the strike was happening and now we're back and i'm just exhausted and i don't want to do these dates but i gotta do these dates because i put it already booked all this stuff you know on the track was gonna last and it's just like well dang it yeah yeah so now i'm just trying to get these dates that people are going to start canceling because their schedules are overrun. But, you know, it's it's good. I'm excited. The book has been interesting to see the reception that people have for it. It's been really good to talk about it.
Starting point is 00:12:38 And writing a book is hard. And my manager conned me into it. And so as it happens, as it happens yeah how long did it take you to write the book a couple days a couple it takes like a year jesus it's like a year even though and i um my manager tricked me uh consistent with this one truly tricked me wait in what way be like it'll be easy you know it's just gonna probably take like two weeks no he was like hey what if you wrote a book and i was like that sounds very hard no thank you easy and he's like well i said i don't think anybody wants to read a book for me i'm not just what are we talking about he's like let's just have a meeting let's just take a meeting and see
Starting point is 00:13:19 what happens and i was like okay right and then i took a meeting and then i took three more meetings and he was like congratulations you sold a book i was like what yeah they're gonna give you money now you have to write a book i was like yo this mother like i thought we were just talking to those people i thought we were just talking to these people like just saying like hey girl how you doing yeah they're like you sold it in the room and then apparently the book got sold and so now i had to write and escape a book so but when they give you money you have to do stuff i don't know if you've heard of jobs no but yeah that's the hard thing don't approve don't approve at all don't who invented this who invented money the bastard but yeah so he tricked me and then people bought
Starting point is 00:13:58 it and so then i had to write a whole book and i started the process by asking michelle buteau who wrote a book how in the hell do you do this? And she recommended, she was like, well, just start with stories that are too long for you to tell on stage. And I started from there. And then I filled in, like, you know, stories from growing up and, like, being at Daily Show and, like, stand up. Right. You know, I used to do summer stock theater. So I started from there and then filled in stories from my life.
Starting point is 00:14:25 Okay. So easy started from there and then filled in stories from my life. Okay. So easy enough. Easy enough. Everybody needs to go out, get it, make Dulce and her manager some money. Yeah. Off this deal. Listen, I'm just trying to make sure my mother never works at Amazon. There you go.
Starting point is 00:14:38 There you go. That's the goal. Trying to keep my mother off these Bezos streets. Listen, just trying to keep her honest and off these Bezos streets. Yeah. Listen, just trying to keep her honest and off these no man, and just off these Bezos streets. Yeah. All right. Dulce, we're going to get to know you a little bit better in a moment. Okay.
Starting point is 00:14:51 First, a couple of the things we're talking about, we're going to check in with Evangelicals, see what they were up to during the Super Bowl. I mean, it was a big day for Jesus. Yeah. The Super Bowl ads were all over the place. And they had some parallel programming happening. They had like the puppy bowl for the real hardcore evangelicals. Before we get to any of that, Dulce, we do like to ask our guest, what is something from your search history? Nine foot Christmas tree storage tote.
Starting point is 00:15:20 Oh, nine foot. Yeah. That's that's a big I got a six footer like a like a artificial one i don't have i just keep putting in the same box that is starting to fall apart i probably need to look into a tote now actually now that i think about this well i'm gonna put it well they have like storage bags you can put them in and they have the storage totes because like it's gonna go in the shed so i can't put it in the box right because that torrential downpour the other day the box will just melt it you know inside the shed so the moisture in the air so yeah that's
Starting point is 00:15:48 what i'm looking for is a way to because the christmas tree is still in the living room yeah yeah it's taken apart right what's your what's the limit for you well how long does the christmas how what's the earliest it goes up and what's the latest it stays up well we put it up um we put up like in december but my mother was like next year we should put it up on thanksgiving which i'm fine with that yeah we were well into january before we took that tree down yeah yeah yeah i took mine we didn't have the time for whatever reason i felt like when mlk day came i was like it can't be up for mlk day that was like that's what i gave myself as a soft deadline i was like once another holiday hits that's fine i feel like into early january you're good you're good but
Starting point is 00:16:29 mid to late i proved that message but like once we were here i think we were hitting like mid january i was just like this is no yeah like it is not sparking joy this is not i mean i don't know what we're doing but we're doing it yeah this is not yeah i joy. This is not. I mean, I don't know what we're doing, but we're doing it. Yeah, this is not. Yeah. I have crazy loyalty to certain. I think it is like the big boxes. Like boxes that store big items. Like I have that 12-foot witch Halloween decoration.
Starting point is 00:16:58 And I'm still fucking like, you know, two and a half seasons in, I'm still fucking with the original box and it is tatters. Yeah, yeah. It's not even functioning anymore. My question is, would the box be exposed to the elements? It was last year. And then now I just have it in a room
Starting point is 00:17:17 that we don't go into that much because I want to protect the box more than anything. Just like this box is really... That's a good box. I've seen better days. i understand that um i am a also a box person like my friend because like when i get like an eyeshadow palette i'll keep it in the original box yeah um and there's a container it's also like these this ain't wet and wild makeup you know what i mean like this is like this isn't a cheap so like when i got my first like
Starting point is 00:17:43 first couple daily show checks like my really like grown-up checks, I was like, I'm going to get myself, like, some nice makeup. And I got, like, a Pat McGrath eyeshadow palette. It was, like, $125. And it's amazing. This makeup's going to be passed on to my children's children. But I won't take it on the road with me. Oh. Because it's $125.
Starting point is 00:18:04 So, it sits in my house, but I'm not somebody that wears makeup every day. Sure. So when I do it, I'm like, let me go grab this Pat McGrath, but it's in the box. All of my makeup is in the box.
Starting point is 00:18:14 Yeah. Everything stays in the box because it's just like, that's how I got it. Like we'll keep a TV box. My mother's making me keep a TV box from one of these TVs. She's got printer boxes. Like I'm in my craft room right now. And there's like boxes from different printers that she has.
Starting point is 00:18:28 You're like, well, if you got the box, you can put it back in the box. Printer boxers definitely last. Printer box. No reason. Stays with the family.
Starting point is 00:18:37 So, I mean, even if Jesus did come back, you still pass that. Bequeathing it to my children. Yeah, absolutely. Why did I even have these kids? If I'm not going to give them this box, printer box. Yeah, this did come back you still yeah past that bequeathing it to my children yeah absolutely why did i even have these kids if i'm not gonna give them this box printer box yeah this is an
Starting point is 00:18:50 epson laser printer you should like this this is the first one i'm truly looking at an epson inkjet right in front of my face no i know it's like my mom is the same way like she i think it's like also this thing is like if if it costs a certain amount it's like well don't throw that box out but if it's right if it's like north of like packaging if it's like north of 150 and i and i think i've also adapted this habit from my mom too i mean like well you know that's like shit was like 150 bucks like you might you might want to put it back in the box for some reason cut to well the tv in my living room is like a close to 70 inch tv so it's like i have to get this box out of here yeah that box is paying fucking rent right the box is 74 inches but no no you have to leave you have to go home like you have to go back to the earth from
Starting point is 00:19:32 whence you came you just can't be in my house yeah no the box needs to pay the box needs to pay rent if it's that big you have to get out of here absolutely another tv box that my mom will not let me get rid of and so it's just in my crawl space for absolutely no reason just because just because i don't have to hear her go so you're not gonna keep the box no keeping the box for what what if you move then i'll find a way to package it safely i don't need they sell other boxes yeah yeah she's like but what about what if you move i said then what about all the other TVs? There's three TVs upstairs.
Starting point is 00:20:08 There's two TVs in her house. There's a TV in the living room. There's a TV in my brother's house. We got one box. We have 147 TVs. You can't fit them all in there. Are we all going to just strap them together? Maybe just tie a rope? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:20:23 I have to get out of his mindset like these boxes have to get thrown away right yeah well secretly secretly you know secretly i mean i'm just waiting for the day that she's out because i know i tried to throw it away last time and she was just like what you doing with the box yeah she probably heard you she's like you're not messing with my box right right it's in my crawl space i want to get out of here i'm trying to put the christmas thing. Have to smuggle it out in small pieces like Andy Dufresne in Shawshank Redemption. Dropping little pieces of the box from your pant leg.

I'm Keri Champion, and this is season four of Naked Sports, where we live at the intersection of sports and culture. Up first, I explore the making of a rivalry, Kaitlyn Clark versus Angel Reese. I know I'll go down in history. People are talking about women's basketball just because of one single game. Every great player needs a foil. I ain't really near them. 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,
Starting point is 00:23:38 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?
Starting point is 00:23:56 This game is only going to get better because the talent is getting better. This new season will cover all things sports and culture. Listen to Naked Sports on the Black Effect Podcast Network, iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. The Black Effect Podcast Network is sponsored by Diet Coke. And we are back.
Starting point is 00:24:22 And Dulcé Sloan, we do like to also ask our guests what is something you think is overrated Taylor Swift she's just white and uh that's it yeah what do you think of the Republican sort of like hysteria over how they're like she's
Starting point is 00:24:44 gonna swing the election they need honestly thank you for getting the heat off of black people run it because this is what you do know if kansas city would have lost the superbowl that would have been her fault yes but they won and it's travis kelsey because she doesn't get the push she doesn't get the benefit of them winning but she would have caught all the heat if they lost right yeah and that's not fair yeah i'm not a fan of little girl but that's just ridiculous yeah yeah you don't need that kind of misogyny flying that way right so just like she was gonna hell. Also, even if she's the even if she told everybody to vote for a specific candidate, that's not illegal. Yeah, no. Right. Obviously, the only thing that's going to swing the election is the policy of the Republican Party. But the problem is, is that nobody wants to in the same way.
Starting point is 00:25:40 So when Hillary Clinton was running against against trump i saw something on instagram and it said all right let me go get up and vote for this girl and i was like that is perfect that is exactly how i felt let me get up and vote for this girl am i excited to vote for biden but they know that kamala harris has no chance right none right so it's like okay you have to run biden against trump because kamala harris has absolutely no chance but it's they're the oldest candidates in the history of the world yeah and like in the history of america oh yeah for sure yeah they're the oldest candidates in the history of america and john said like on the show on monday he was like the last time there were people this old was them four years ago.
Starting point is 00:26:27 Four years ago. Yeah, they broke the record of them four years ago. The first time. So I was like, damn, that's wild. But no, Taylor Swift, I mean, all she did was just increase the sales of pony beads and letter beads and that. Right, right, right. Elastic to make braces. The bead industry is booming
Starting point is 00:26:45 and that is helping by the economy exactly so shout out to when also what i don't understand is like we've given taylor swift all this credit for boosting the economy when her and beyonce had tours simultaneously right right right and people were breaking their neck, literally not paying rent to go see both of them. So I'm just like, it's not I don't think she's going to know she's not going to sway an election. What the problem is that people are so disengaged that not enough people are going to vote. And what the Republican Party is very good at is getting their constituents out to vote. Yeah. Democrats aren't paying enough attention also they don't have enough money the republican party sits on 200 million dollars the democratic party sits on 20
Starting point is 00:27:33 million dollars the way laura trump was talking she's like if i am at the rnc if like put me there i'm putting every she said quote every single penny of rnc funds will be go to his election it's like you mean in legal fees? I think that's what we're really talking here, because that's how so much of his PAC money just went to his legal fees. Well, which is, listen, this is why when white people have the nerve to look at black people or people of color and go, well, how do we you can't ask us how to do anything. I don't know exactly how this works. I'm very I'm very to do anything. Y'all know exactly how this works. I'm very, I'm very exhausted by the white person who doesn't understand how America works. Right, right.
Starting point is 00:28:10 Or the man who doesn't understand why women are still going through. Stop it. Quit playing in my face. If you're playing with me, at least let there be a board and dice out. Stop playing with me. There's no video game console on right now. I ain't sitting in the living room eating nachos. So stop playing with me there's no video game console on right now i ain't sitting in the living room eating nachos so stop playing with me you understand yeah so i'm just like one america's not about freedom america's about money yeah the day that everybody can acknowledge that america
Starting point is 00:28:35 is a business it started as colonialism and colonization was a business. Yeah. The colonies were a business. Yeah. So a few people was like, you know what, they be not being real nice to us in England. We might want to go somewhere else. Right. That was a couple folks
Starting point is 00:28:54 on a couple boats. The rest of these bastards, the entire Western Hemisphere was a business. Right. That the British and the Spanish took over. Because the fact that Americans do not acknowledge that most
Starting point is 00:29:12 of the countries below us speak Spanish is insane. Or even know what country, like most people don't even know what North America is. Well, you know, Mexico is in Central America. No, it's not! You've never heard of NATO. That's what you just told me So it's
Starting point is 00:29:30 America is a business Stop looking for freedom and start paying attention to the money All of this has always been about money America does not care about your freedom The freedom shit is a smokescreen It's a lie That's why the reason That you were able to get the civil rights
Starting point is 00:29:46 act to pass one kennedy was assassinated two the montgomery bus boycott took 18 months it wasn't a couple days that they wasn't on the bus was 18 months yeah and black women organized cabs and cars to get everybody to work and what it did was it almost bankrupted the city of Montgomery, Alabama. That's why desegregation happened, because of boycotting of businesses. It wasn't because the white people was like, we should probably get these Negroes some rights. No, it's realized how we impacted an entire city's economy and multiple cities, economies during the civil rights movement. And they were like, yo,
Starting point is 00:30:27 you Negroes messing up our business, give them some rights for, they're going to destroy us. Right. With just the money of it. It did not. No one felt no. It's like,
Starting point is 00:30:36 so a white man looked at another white man and said, let's give these Negroes rights. Right. Had nothing to do. They weren't treated better. Right. You could not just get the bland food you was fighting to eat so i'm very confused about what we think is happening right now and i don't know why we're not acting like that this is what it is so yeah the republican
Starting point is 00:30:59 party wants to take all this money to back trump all they're going to do is bankrupt themselves that's all they want to do trump is just revenge for obama that's all he is because that's why people foam at the mouth in anger and act with trump the way that they act just because he says what needs to be said we're going to drain the swamp and get those fat cats i'm like why are there so many cats in a swamp you sound crazy they're like i've been your cat they don't want to be in your water listen what is this i remember swat cats was an interesting cartoon some cats didn't exist they don't do that samurai pizza cats another one you know what i mean what an uh the 90s was a great time for pizza yeah truly i hate that teenage mutant ninja turtle
Starting point is 00:31:40 pizza that was just like the the cheese on the top was like one solid liquid like non-newtonian substance that just like kind of stretched off fell off the dough yeah i mean it's really how they made kids read books is what happened yeah a pizza a personal pan pizza right just truly just an open-faced grilled cheese sandwich with a little bit of tomato sauce with a little bit of tomato sauce is really how they got kids to read in the 90s yeah came through what is something you think is underrated voting in local elections and knowing who your congressman is that is underrated yeah because people don't know people it's like i remember when obama got elected all these white people were like well obama's to pass all these laws for black people.
Starting point is 00:32:25 And it's like, that's literally not what the president does. Or I had a coworker who's like, well, what's Obama doing for black people? I said, just being the president. Right. But he's not. He's the whole country's president. So it's just like. It's.
Starting point is 00:32:40 I don't know what schoolhouse rock we all need to watch or how we all forgot but it's just like the reason that you could overturn roe v wade is because of a president who got elected and all of this other stuff so it's just like but it was a long going plan long road yeah right so what I truly need the Democratic Party to do is crime. Crime. Do crime. Because here's the thing. The Republican Party represents a small represents a very specific group of people that has a lot of money or doesn't have a lot
Starting point is 00:33:18 of money, but they know who they are and what they want. The Democratic Party has to cover everybody else. right and so the republicans openly do crime will still and look you in the face and go do something about it yeah right because they have the audacity of white men there are enough white people running the democratic party to also have the audacity of white men. If you're a white man who is front facing in this party, do crime.
Starting point is 00:33:50 Yeah, right. It's time. It's time. You're not helping me by not doing crime. You're not. This is the time. This is the time to do crime. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:58 They're trying to steal. He literally planned treason. And those people left. Right. If there would have been people of color they'd all be dead and they're trapped in the capital dead right you've already seen how far i could actually go right yeah and so it's like well i'm not gonna i'm not gonna vote because i don't want to you know and biden this and biden that i was like this man people committed treason for this man
Starting point is 00:34:23 people committed treason for this man. Yeah. And you're going to go, well, well, I think Biden's old. Then Kamala Harris becomes president if he meets Jesus. But you already have seen what Trump will do.
Starting point is 00:34:35 Yeah. What his, what his followers, not constituent, his followers. Yeah. Will do. Yeah. Because he was underrated is not,
Starting point is 00:34:44 is Democrats, Democrat, anyone who's not a republican not participating in the elections for their local and federal congress people yeah yeah because if you want to know why this why your neighborhood's getting redlined it's because you didn't go vote right it's because city council people or, you know, older people. It's because why are these books being taken out of school councils? Like, it's like the school board is a voted thing. A sheriff is a voted thing. There's so many things you vote for.
Starting point is 00:35:15 And people are blinded by the fact that the president is the least important person you need to be worried about. Yeah. You need to be learning about who is your congressman. Who is running your school board? That's what you need to be worried about. You need to be worried about who is your congressman. Who is running your school board? That's what you need to be worried about. I don't even know what the hell an alderman does, but I'm sure it's important. I don't know what a comptroller is, but you gotta...
Starting point is 00:35:35 People are like, voting is not important. I said, if it wasn't important, it wouldn't work so hard to get people to not do it. No one tries to stop you from doing something. Ain't nobody out here trying to stop people from roller skating. Except for like old people who are like, it's dangerous. Because it is dangerous.
Starting point is 00:35:52 Yeah. Well, I think yeah, with the voting thing too, I think a lot of people put so, like culturally, we put so much emphasis on the presidential race. And it's like, that's not the thing that changes everything. That's like just one office. No, he literally, he doesn't write laws. He doesn't pass laws.
Starting point is 00:36:07 All he can do is veto a law. Yeah. And give people pardons. Like his power. The scope of the power of the president doesn't affect people's lives on a regular basis. But your congressional representative on the state and federal level. That impacts you directly and they're standing they're sitting in an office going oh i represent the people but you don't
Starting point is 00:36:32 represent me right and i don't like who you are so you can't be in the seat anymore but now people are convinced well all the voting is rigged and da da da da da there is a there's the electoral college but not every vote has an electoral college they set that up for the president and that's why people think it's so important right but if you're voting for a congressman that's a direct democracy you vote for that person directly that's pure popular vote right so what do you think i mean i'm curious because you know you just referenced john stewart coming back to the daily show Show and a bunch of liberals fucking lost it. And I'm like, come the fuck on. When people say, just don't fucking mention anything bad about Joe Biden or you're trying to make Trump win.
Starting point is 00:37:15 It's like, excuse you? Keith Olbermann was like, this is both sides. I'm like, yeah, because both sides are old as shit. So what are we saying here? Well, also, the show has always talked about both yeah yeah no truly but it's interesting to see like the the the franticness because i get it the the threat of another trump administration that's not lost on me like how dangerous that is and if you're trying to do things differently and you're saying like i want to choose the
Starting point is 00:37:43 the landscape in which i'm trying to do activism or whatever it's like you're it's going to be more friendly if biden is president than if donald trump is president that's just that's just true but i think like this idea that we can't expect or say out loud that we want better or there can be better and treating that as like a hostile act of violence i think it's just so it's so counterproductive and it's like it ends up putting off like a lot of younger voters too who like you need for campaigns so it's just a very i know we're in a very odd situation in terms of like i remember when the tea party came out the whole republican party split and it was just like okay these ones are crazy right these ones are less crazy so it's just like the republican party's been through a lot right in the past 20 something in the past 20 25 years yeah so but everything has become
Starting point is 00:38:34 it was interesting because the internet was supposed to give us more information and what all it does is just it's giving information to support people's side. But at the end of the day, you can't say that you're a Christian country and then not do things that help people. You can't say you're a Christian country and then want to deny people health care. Or it's like, well, you can't say that you don't believe in socialism, but then have public schools, police, a post office. Right. And corporate welfare. And corporate welfare. So it's like literally the post office.
Starting point is 00:39:16 But also remember when Trump tried to get rid of the post office? Yeah. Yeah. And that was good. The post office started running really well when he put his guy in there. Well, what was nuts is like he tried to shut down the post office and some little body literally said to him hey we have a lot of rural voters who are republican and if we get rid of the post office we won't have those votes right he left the post office alone he was going for the post office yeah
Starting point is 00:39:41 and he was like they're this and he was like and then he just stopped coming for the post office right yeah because somebody was like hey quick just just a quick thing don't have to listen to me just saying right that those votes that you're trying not to count also from us yeah yeah oh okay well shit y'all should have told me okay cool cool cool cool yeah all right well i already forgot i said that. So let's move on to the next thing. I mean, truly. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, one of the most hopeful things I've seen in politics in recent history was you had mentioned comptroller. But the 2022 election for comptroller of Los Angeles, Kenneth Mejia, a 32 year old-old accountant who just started putting up billboards showing what the LAPD's budget actually looked like. Compared to everything else in the city.
Starting point is 00:40:34 Compared to everything else in the city. It was a bar graph. It was wild. And everyone was like, oh my God, this is the thing that everybody's freaking out and saying that is getting defunded. And he got elected against what people were expecting to happen. He got elected just by basically, you know, in a very smart way explaining this is what I do as a controller. You probably don't know that, but here's what a controller does.
Starting point is 00:40:59 Here's something wild that you probably haven't noticed. But me as a controller noticed. And he's like, yeah, you see that super long bar that goes almost the length of the billboard? That's the police budget. The thing that are a third and a half are things like social services, you know, programs for affordable housing. Man, the only thing, the only controller I know is a Drake song. It's really interesting. Also, listen, we just have to take a second to go like this year
Starting point is 00:41:25 has been i mean i literally start a list like for those of you keeping score at home in 2024 let's get into it i mean this year has been absolutely outrageous as in first of all for those of you keeping score at home, Cat Williams Club Shay Shay interview. Megan versus Nikki. Jay-Z telling the truth at the Grammys. Drake video leak. Helicopter footage. Helicopter footage.
Starting point is 00:42:02 Monique's Club Shay Shay interview. Yeah. New Jonathan Majors allegations. Oh, new jonathan majors allegations oh new jonathan majors allegations yeah oh shit yeah okay so uh and then beyonce coming out with a beyonce dropping beyonce teasing yeah a country album country album during usher's concert like it's um beyonce teasing album during usher concert and white people playing sports also i don't know if you noticed this and i know i'm probably getting us off track but i did notice that when so majority of football players on a football team are black men. Right? But when you put them on the Super Bowl as one, there was no black men standing up there.
Starting point is 00:42:59 And then when they finally got to a black man, talked for maybe 15 seconds. So, and then Travis Kelsey, who, if you needed any more proof that he only dated black women, I was like, why are they letting him talk? Because, like, here's the thing that people don't realize, because, like, I don't know where he's from, but he sounds like he's from the Midwest or the South to me. Because people don't realize at a certain point where you get rural enough, white people and black people sound exactly the same. He's from Westlake, Ohio. So that's what he sounds like to me. This is very like, everybody talks the same. Because as much as there was a twang,
Starting point is 00:43:36 it was also like, I also thought Ric Flair was going to come out at any moment. Because he sounded like Dusty Rhodes. So it's just like, is Arne Anderson here here what is going on right is is kelsey gonna who's hitting him with the chair where is kevin nash like this is what he sounded like to me so i was like i've never thought that anyone think any relationship was a plant or a ploy or a plot but his little relationship with taylor swift i
Starting point is 00:44:05 don't believe it oh no and so we i was in kansas city the other week doing shows like the beginning of the month and they were like oh travis and and uh taylor i bought a house and i was just like first of all why do you know that i know that right but it's it's very interesting also i do acknowledge i like he acknowledged the fact that he does wear a fade and it's not a haircut that he created. Right. Yeah. He had to clarify that. Because he was like, I think somebody told me he said, literally, don't do this to me during Black History Month.
Starting point is 00:44:35 Yeah. He said, don't throw me to the wolves. He said, don't throw me to the wolves and do that to me in the beginning of Black History Month. Like, I came up with the fade. No. Truly. Boom. Yeah. Honestly, sir. sir yeah we'll give you
Starting point is 00:44:49 that we'll give you that but i'm seeing the x so that i'm stealing taylor swift i'm just like also i saw that body he got that's a whole man body that's a whole man body right he gonna he must sleep with taylor swift and in pieces like i don't know that's a whole man that's a whole midwestern oak tree yeah midwestern california body she ain't that ain't midwest but she don't what is she? Right, right, right. Yeah. I looked up. I was like, how? Is this even? Is there any diagrams available?
Starting point is 00:45:33 Listen, because he can't give... He can't be missionary because then she dies. She's gone. She's gone. If he's on top, she disappears. I can't. He has great body control, you know, like as an NFL player, like his ability to get his foot down, drag it along the, you know. I feel like he'd be able to pull things off.
Starting point is 00:45:55 Listen. Listen. I'm going to tell you right now. She ain't got enough body to push back against that body. If his arms ain't up, she's gone. She's gone. She's in the mattress. She's a cartoon cartoon she is a cutout in this bed she's a kool-aid man she don't have the body to push back against his body if he lays completely on her her breath is gone right they
Starting point is 00:46:15 gotta get a reverse kool-aid man where it's just a hole in the wall and him sitting there saying oh no uh yeah she went through yeah she is smushed like a looney tune there is no way there is absolutely no way he's never been on top she died and i have no ill will towards the young lady but when i saw him with the muscles and that little bit of little pooch little ponta that's all that's a whole man ma'am 250 pounds you don't know and that's a lot yeah so no they say that to be cute that ain't 250 promise you that promise you that i don't hold man when i see one no what do you think that's 260 270 listen i won't speculate but i'm not mad at the package you see what i'm saying yeah i mean i wouldn't want him to talk to me but right so when he opened his mouth, all I heard was lemon pepper wings.
Starting point is 00:47:06 But you're talking about a man with one of the most popular podcasts in America. So he's our hero. We, Miles and I just listen to him talk and try and figure out.

Starting point is 00:51:32 a little marketing thing like the bud bowl or the puppy bowl or you know like counter programming that's just trying to draft off of the popularity of the super bowl so this mega church in ohio did the super bowl sunday of preaching yeah we love that i mean how many passes got up oh man uh there's at least on the on the flyer like there's at least five people this is the flyer right here just to give you an idea of how the whole thing was being crossroads churches. Okay. So this is the white mega church. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:07 They are. And they are screaming in these promotional materials. And yeah, a lot of people are like, what the fuck? Okay. The, the,
Starting point is 00:52:14 the vibe kind of has like a fucked up WWE event, but here this is the image. So for the listeners, the image has three people like just screaming mouths wide open screaming at the camera one person looking at the camera like i'm gonna fuck you up like i'm going to straight up fuck you up like the the guy who looks the most like a pastor he's like you know 65 year old old guy who's better not be looking at no porno and then some guy dresses like a referee i guess it's just like i understand but also it's just like football supposed to be like america's
Starting point is 00:52:53 game and i'm like i think we all like that's why i don't understand why a church would have like counter programming to the super bowl because i thought we were all like god loves super bowl this is where they this is the genius part because they found a way to create an event over a Bible quote. This is them talking about one of the events they're doing in this Super Bowl of preaching. In each quarter, preachers will be given a random phrase that they must effectively work into their message. And my understanding is these are completely random. They have never seen them before. Seriously.
Starting point is 00:53:26 Oh, it's like improv. Hey, folks. Time to meet our players. Let's head down to the field for today's starting line. And they have people like sitting at a desk. Like they're, yeah. This is a church. This looks like WWE.
Starting point is 00:53:37 The Undertaker just came out. It's wrestling. Oh, no. All right. So this one dude came out. Then we got another couple coming out. The red team, I guess the people in chief. What's a Pastrix, first of all?
Starting point is 00:53:49 Yeah. It says Ohio Measured Pastrix. Yeah. Allie Patterson. Is that a typo? We thinking that's a typo? I think that may be like a pun on like being like a female pastor or something. I don't know if it's a pun.
Starting point is 00:54:04 Or, yeah, is that there? Is that just the term? Like actress, pastrisks? Pastric? That's not necessary. No. You could be a pastor. Right.
Starting point is 00:54:15 Pastor, because I've never heard this term in my life. Unless that woman is making it necessary for people to know. Like the term comedian, I don't like that term. Right, right, right. Comedienne. Like I said, first of all, I'm going to speak French. Right. So they're kicking...
Starting point is 00:54:30 Well, hold on. We haven't even gotten to this part. So just for the listeners at home, so it does say, like, Pastrix is about to do something wild in the Twitter description. And then these people are running onto stage with, like, the... Like, when an NFL team enters something wild in the in the twitter description and then these people are running onto stage with
Starting point is 00:54:45 like the steam like when i when an nfl team enters and there's like fog shooting like jetting up into the air like it's letting off like steam that would just like boil the flesh off a bone like that that's kind of the vibe it's good oh you know what it's a term used by some Christians who refuse to recognize female pastors. But it's also a term that looks like it's from medieval Latin. Yeah. Apparently it's been around for a long time. Yeah. A synonym of pastoress.
Starting point is 00:55:19 Oh, pastoress. Thank you very much. Listen, we've never done this. It's like there's actor and actress, but then there's not like director, directress, writer, rightress. Right. Like, there's not dentress. Well, there should be. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:55:33 I want to know coming in if I'm seeing a doctor or a doctress, you know? I don't want to be surprised. So they've kicked the Bible. Well, see, this is where we go. Now they do a coin toss for what they say is the kickoff. And this is what's really got people's attention. Because like, wait, what the fuck is going on? When it lands.
Starting point is 00:55:52 Call it in the air. Heads or tails? Tails! What I'll be kicking. She just punched him in the chest. Yeah, let's just go with tails. Would you like to kick or receive the Bible? I will receive.
Starting point is 00:56:02 You're like, okay, you will receive? She's to receive the Bible. Okay receive you're like okay you will receive the bible okay so one guy's holding a bible kick holding it like it's a fucking field goal why is she about to kick it what oh my goodness into the crowd is that a touchback fucking belted the bible into the crowd i was like hold on now i haven't been to church in a minute but from what i do remember i'm pretty sure you can't be curb stomping the word of god uh as part of like last i checked i don't think you're supposed to be kicking a bible through the church honestly this this makes less sense because i remember the old school white Pentecostal snake handling.
Starting point is 00:56:45 Right. That makes more sense than this. Right, right, right. Because there were whole snakes being like, even this animal that took down Eve and brought Adam and Eve out of the Garden of Eden. That, you know, is the symbol of evil. The Lord will protect me even if this bites me. Even this venomous snake, the Lord will protect me even if this bites me even this venomous snake the lord will protect me you're testing god right but it makes more sense yeah than what we just watched that yeah charming makes more sense yeah then you kick in the word of God into an audience. Also, before she kicked it
Starting point is 00:57:26 during the coin toss, she punched him in his chest. Yeah, she's like, what's up, homie? Bro, you know what? Honestly, if this is the life of a pastrix, I mean. Yeah, why not? Punch a dude, kick the shit out the Bible. Hashtag life of a pastrix.
