Starting point is 00:00:00 We want to speak out and we want this to stop. Wow, very powerful. I'm Ellie Flynn, an investigative journalist, and this is my journey deep into the adult entertainment industry. I really wanted to be a player boy, my doll. He was like, I'll take you to the top, I'll make you a star. To expose an alleged predator and the rotten industry he works in. It's honestly so much worse than I had anticipated.
Starting point is 00:00:21 We're an army in comparison to him. From Novel, listen to The Bunny Trap on the iHeart Radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

This season on my podcast, Here's the Thing, I speak with musician, photographer and philanthropist Julian Lennon.
Starting point is 00:01:41 One of the really important things that happened to me with photography was I would have people write to me, people that couldn't financially afford to travel the world. And what they had all said to me is that you bring these stories to us. You bring the truth, you bring cultures that we would never necessarily know anything about. Listen to the new season of Here's the Thing
Starting point is 00:02:02 on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hello, the internet, and welcome to this episode of Punks a Trendy Phil. Hey, Miles, did you hear Punks a Trendy Phil? I heard it, but... Saw his right, guys? Six more weeks of trending? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:21 Yeah. Oh, you did hear? Look, I'm still kind of, I'm just surprised the conservatives aren't talking about who actually controls the weather. And it's clearly these weather rats. They're slimming bro. That one courtesy of Bruce face killer. Without which we wouldn't have action Bronson. And yes, exactly. Um, father of action Bronson's style. My name is Jack that over there.
Starting point is 00:02:46 Well, that's Miles Gray. Yeah. Oh, man. First, he's back. He thought you could take him out that easy. No, no, no. I mean, it was pretty easy. No one had to really do anything except for leave a transmission line on during a terrible cataclysmic windstorm. Has Whitney Cummings chased down that lead?
Starting point is 00:03:08 No. That it was Zeitgang because they thought they could take you out that easy? You know, it's funny, Whitney Cummings, this is something that we talk about in tomorrow's video episode is she actually was like one of the first models for Real Botics. There's like a presentation where Whitney Cummings was standing next to her like real Botics thing very comfortably Yeah, like very I'm paid you what to do this anyway miles another day another Trump victory. He has brought Canada and Mexico to heal with his threats of tariffs They backed down. They said yes, sir. We're sorry. So like the way I see this interaction happening is Canada, Mexico in a room
Starting point is 00:03:50 being like America, more like America can't these fucking losers making the jack off hand motion. And then Trump comes in, he scared them. And now they're like, we're so sorry. We're going to do the border stuff you want us to. Yeah. And I am getting, I am getting a report from Brian, the editor. We are so scared down here. Yeah. And you should be. Thank you. Yes. Yes. Yes. Because don't look at the trade deficits at all where we clearly depend on goods flowing in from these countries more than they depend on
Starting point is 00:04:22 our bullshit going into theirs, except for our guns. But we all depend on each other. So that's why Trump is such a fucking master dog. He just come through. I just love what like Trudeau comes out with. And again, it's also weird to see the media be like, dude, Trump fucking did it. It's weird. Happening the whole time you were out.
Starting point is 00:04:43 I know. It's the same cycle, which is like Trump does a thing. Everyone's like, man, get the fuck out of here with that shit. How about you shut up? And then they're like, and Trump actually won. Yeah, it turns out he's crazy like a fox on this one. Once again. Yo, so you're crazy for this one. But Justin Trudeau. Justin Trudeau. So this is just so funny. This is his statement after him, you know, averting the tariffs for at least a month.
Starting point is 00:05:11 He said, I just had a good call with President Trump. Canada is implementing our $1.3 billion border plan, reinforcing the border with new choppers, technology and personnel, enhanced coordination with our American partners, and increased resources to stop the flow of fentanyl. Nearly 10,000 frontline personnel are and will be working on protecting the border. In addition, Canada is making new commitments to appoint a fentanyl czar. We will list cartels as terrorists, ensure 24 seven eyes on the border and launch a Canada.
Starting point is 00:05:37 But now, what's funny is the fentanyl czar. This is so funny. None of this is new what all oh one three this like Trudeau just say all right what do you want 1.3 billion dollars they announced that shit back in December when Joe Byron was president wow that's money already allocated so you just saying hey we're gonna do the thing we already said we're gonna do is that okay Not to mention the black hawk choppers and all the drones and other shit. And again, the frontline people, they're already there.
Starting point is 00:06:12 Already there. The fentanyl czar, just some shit. You call a guy. That's it. He just called a guy that and then it's done. So way to go asshole You really are that was my really got it. I'm so sorry to our Canadians up up up there up there Just so you know, they don't want to hear your fucking apologies. They're they're over our shit, man Yeah, I mean, I'm not really apologizing for this. Yeah, but I'm just saying hey man, we get it man It's shitty here, too. But yes But personally, I fuck with y'all. You know what I mean? I do.
Starting point is 00:06:48 But I love him. I love Canada, man. Montreal, Toronto, some of the best cities. I mean Montreal in particular is one of the great cities in the Americas, in my opinion. In my personal opinion, I like Montreal. Okay, okay. But yeah, versions of this have been happening
Starting point is 00:07:06 with Columbia, Mexico, Canada now, and then I have to find this one business insider article. The headline is diabolically misleading. But again, it's one of these weird things. I mean, it's bad because people will read it and think Trump is being effective, but then the other version is like, are they just covering themselves?
Starting point is 00:07:26 So when people are like, what did they have to say? They're like, yeah, they said they're right. Either way, it's bad. It's bad. But yeah, here we are. A ton of moral courage going on. So little I forgot how to pronounce courage. I was gonna pronounce it cor-rage.
Starting point is 00:07:40 Cor-rage. A ton of moral cor-rage. What's the latest with the RFK Jr. He's, he's getting backed by doctors. So I guess he does know what he's talking about, but which ones, a list of doctors who the list includes. Oh, I guess these are former doctors. Okay. Yes. Disgraced former doctors.
Starting point is 00:08:07 Oh, oh, had their licenses revoked or suspended. Oh, okay. Okay. I don't know, but it's not. It's just like repeated in gross negligence, et cetera. But yeah, there's also a lot of, you know, there's a health coach in there, an accountant. Bro, a lot of chiropractors. Yes.
Starting point is 00:08:29 So many chiropractors. A lot of chiropractors. Like, oh, y'all. I mean, yeah, they're not medical doctors, but they did give money to Kennedy's Children's Health Defense. Thank you. So maybe they're like, donate to me and you can be the undersigned to a terrible letter of support for a guy who loves beer bonging whale juice in his mini this is a
Starting point is 00:08:50 They do have somebody with a PhD in Jungian psychology. So that's technically a dollar weight. He has a bachelor's degree Carl Jung yeah, yeah a bachelor's degree in Jungian psychology But basically that's the sort of thing that someone would claim to be a doctor about. Yeah, it's just wild. Like everyone's at anti-vaxxer who basically had their license revoked for putting people in danger. Like one guy, one of the doctors was like, I have a vaccine schedule that will prevent autism. And they're like, bro, you are this is malpractice. Yes. And fucking license and throw it in the garbage.
Starting point is 00:09:24 That's right. Yes. And fucking license and throw it in the garbage. That's right. Yeah. Uh, Brian, the editor points out that Trump's whole term is just going to be him taking preexisting shit away, bringing it back three days later and claiming to have, like won a victory in, in so doing. Um, which I think basically the Ray J and speedy sunglasses conversation. These sunglasses are indestructible. Ray, I'm gonna break you. Go ahead and try. Easily snap, then I don't care. And this was last administration too, is shit like this all the time. Remember it was infrastructure week for the whole four fucking years and then when the thing breaks, I think they might be blaming the DEI's.
Starting point is 00:10:08 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly, exactly. Which we all know is just shorthand for every racial slur and slur against, you know, women, whatever. That's what it is. So there was a new story that Joe Biden is going Hollywood because he signed with CAA, which everyone's like, that's the same agency that represents Ariana Grande and Brad Pitt. Brad Pitt's. Brad Pitt's. But he was already signed with CAA before he was elected in 2020. He just left the agency during his presidency for some reason.
Starting point is 00:10:41 I don't know. Yeah. Should have stuck with it. It's because you're in the White House, you're going to hit pause on the money machine? Come reason, I don't know. Should have stuck with it. It's because you're in the White House, you're gonna hit pause on the money machine? Come on, bro. Come on, what the fuck, Joe?
Starting point is 00:10:50 Also, what is he gonna do? No one wants to hear from his ass after this. I can't think of a less exciting media company idea, and there are plenty of unexciting ones, but that has to be the least exciting. Before the presidency, he had a number one New York Times best-selling memoir Promise Me Dad and then did the 42-date American Promise Tour which sold more than 85,000 tickets yeah and that's and that's more votes
Starting point is 00:11:20 than he would have got. But yeah, this is a yeah, sure. Go do your book tour called neoliberalism can still work, guy. That's right. He's going to he's going to be making million dollars from someone ghostwriting a book for him. That's the defense of his disastrous presidential term. Imagine it's just called the throwing throwing people under the bus or how my friends protected my old man ego. That's right.
Starting point is 00:11:47 What was Hillary Clinton's? Hers was like what happened or something. What happened? What had happened was what had happened was, hey, speaking of Marvel superheroes, because that's why I think a lot of people were like, oh, shit, Biden's going to be in the enter the Marvel universe now that he's signed with CIA as who? Wet toilet paper, man? The Fantastic Four First Steps trailer just dropped, which is a movie that I guess the Marvel fans have like kind of been pinning their hopes on as like this is a chance to take it back
Starting point is 00:12:22 to 79. They're going to rub your ass to the moonshine. That's right. Uh, they are. It's basically a soft reboot for the Marvel universe. These characters came over in the acquisition of Fox Fox. And it's uh, I don't know. I didn't watch the trailer, but I have looked at screen grabs from it. And the vibe, the vibe is fun.
Starting point is 00:12:48 Like it's 70s ish, 60s ish, like mod vibes. You know, it definitely feels like the early scenes in The Incredibles, you know, when it's the 60s, which is just, you know, a fantastic, which is fantastic for. Yeah, they just did a fantastic four basically like the superpowers are the fantastic for superpowers in a lot of ways. Like, are you worried that they might sue us for copying them? They're like, no, we're going to own Marvel in like 20 minutes, dude.
Starting point is 00:13:15 Don't worry. Yeah. It's fucking fine. Why don't we just buy them? Now this, yeah, now have some cookie num nums, dude. Write that in your little screen. Mm, cookie num nums. Yeah, these I'm, I mean, I was never fully on board with the Marvel cinematic universe.
Starting point is 00:13:28 And I, the people that I know have are pretty, seem pretty exhausted at this point, much like star wars fans were with just the onslaught of nonstop films and shows and things like that. Have you seen the latest trailer though, where, uh, Harrison Ford is Hulk? It's Harrison Ford is Hulk. Where Harrison Ford is bad guy who's red Hulk.
Starting point is 00:13:54 So you've all in Brave New World or whatever. You've heard of the Green Hulk. What this movie presupposes is what if red? Oh, yeah. What if what if Hulk read wait? So yeah, I think Harrison Ford plays the president who gets Hulk powers and he read and right Also Zionism somewhere mixed in there. Oh, anyway, oh this is the one that had that character That's the like Moss massage person. Yeah. Yeah
Starting point is 00:14:26 Yeah, mostly cut that shit, but I think it's still it's still there I mean, I wouldn't be surprised considering that they completely excised a Palestinian actress from gladiator 2 Yeah, that they would be Just like a little bit of some propaganda for the idea in this one. People are quitting smoking thanks to David Lynch, apparently. His death as the result of his emphysema caused by decades of smoking and in which like he gave a statement before he passed, that was like, man, smoking was fucking awesome. I loved it. However, however, however, I am stuck at my home right now because
Starting point is 00:15:11 of the consequences of smoking and he passed away during the fires. Like, yeah, you know, I think had to be moved from his home. But, you know, I think it definitely feels like one of those things that's hit people very hard. And also, it's the first celebrity who's like died specifically from smoking in a long time, I feel like. And so it's, Yeah. Who was the last? I mean, at least we probably would just hear that, you know, it was like cancer. Yeah. I guess because David Lynch was so synonymous with just always smoking cigarettes. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:47 That we, gone are those people who are like, I'm trying, I'm hard pressed now to be like, who's smoking cigarettes all the time? Like Ben Affleck? I'm trying to think of people that you kind of see paparazzi stuff or like bother to be photographed intentionally and be like, and I'm smoking is sick, dude. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:03 All right, here's the list of celebrities died from smoking related illnesses. George Harrison from the beat. Yeah. Oh, sorry to him. Um, John Wayne, but I feel like it's a lot of people who like died old Ian Fleming, sir Ian Fleming. Oh, sir. Um, heart attack at 64, but people think it had something to do with a little bit of the smoking. Um, but yeah, it's like that era, you know, like Lucille ball and shit like that. Oh, Lucy, the mage, the damage, Joe DiMaggio, Nat King Cole. I think I knew that. Um, so anyways, there,
Starting point is 00:16:38 there are people talking about, uh, quitting smoking and it's, it's super hard to do. My hat's off to everybody who is able to do it. It's really- How'd you stop? Were you smoking cigarettes? I was smoking cigarettes at various times. I was vaping at various times, always in secret.
Starting point is 00:16:56 Like I'd go into a closet. But yeah, I just kind of forced myself a couple years ago. Just knocked it off. But it was hard. I mean, I spent, I was never like full blown. I never allowed myself to be full blown as like a smoker. It was always I was like somebody who was quitting. So like I was spent most of my time with a practicing addiction to nicotine,
Starting point is 00:17:16 like a smoking cessation product. Just like with a piece of my own. Yeah. No way to live, I'll say. Yeah, yeah. But it is wild though, too, like how, because I feel like cigarette smoking is so, or at least I feel like for millennials and probably young, like, yeah, everybody, the cool factor comes from the media you consume, you know? Or like maybe it's, or it's just something everyone in your family does, like in Japan,
Starting point is 00:17:44 like, dude, all the men in my family were smoking cigarettes, but to know, like to see the people who are like, dude, David Lynch, that's why I smoke cigarettes. And then you look at yourself and like, dude, that guy fucking died and he regrets it. Wait, what the fuck? What am I? Who am I? What am I? And he knew how good it was. He knew how fun and cool it was. He even like, yeah, he gave like what, what he called an exit interview where he was like, I shouldn't have smoked.
Starting point is 00:18:08 I liked it a lot, but it is bad. Yeah. The weather in Los Angeles is 72 degrees. He was so happy. I'm gonna miss those weather reports. Yeah. That guy rolled. All right.
Starting point is 00:18:24 Let's take a quick break. We'll come back with a greatly belated Grammy's roundup. We'll be right back. Hi, this is Ruthie Rogers, host of Ruthie's Table Four.

Listen to the Ghost Therapy Podcast as part of the MyCultura Podcast Network, available on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Something about Mary Poppins?

Starting point is 00:21:15 I'm AJ Jacobs, and I am an author and a journalist, and I tend to get obsessed with stuff. And my current obsession is puzzles. And that has given birth to my podcast, The Puzzler. Dressing. Dressing. Oh, French dressing. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:21:35 Ha ha ha! Oh, that's good. Now you can get your daily puzzle nuggets delivered straight to your ears. I thought to myself, I bet I know what this is. And now I definitely know what this is. This is so weird. This is fun. Let's try this one. Our brand new season features special guests like Chuck Bryant,
Starting point is 00:21:56 Mayim Bialik, Julie Bowen, Sam Sanders, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and lots more. Listen to The Puzzler every day on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. That's awful. And I should have seen it coming. And we're back. And the Grammys did indeed happen what happened the Grammys Finally gave Beyonce album of the year for cowboy Carter
Starting point is 00:22:30 She was already the most awarded Grammy artist in history had never won the top prize Also became the first black woman to win the best country album there it is Grammy So feels like mission accomplished like she was just like all, all right, I'm going to do this. Now I can finally retire. I've done it all. That's probably what she's going to do, right? That's what extremely successful and driven people do. They get the thing.
Starting point is 00:22:56 They just take their foot completely off the gas and wither away. Yeah, just seen it 100 times. Yeah, that was good. I'm glad Kendrick won, too. Specifically for Not Like Us. He got five awards, including record of the year for not like us. Just what I, I mean, it was song or the record. That's a number of times. Best music video, best rap performance. What must it be like to be Drake to have this much mainstream embrace of the
Starting point is 00:23:24 complete ethering of your entire shit. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's as bad. The brand is so diluted. I feel like Drake in America are kind of in similar places where people are like, Oh, yeah. Man, we're not fucking with y'all anymore. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Yeah, it's over. Okay. We're done. I don't care. Drake's Australian tour, according to Brian, the editor can't sell tickets right now. That's wild because that's, that's what he was kind of banking on to bring him back was to be like, all right, let me get out of the U S and go to somewhere where the internet doesn't exist and they don't know about that.
Starting point is 00:23:57 I like, Oh wait, they have. Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh. People pointed out that the only other rap song to win record of the year, which like record of the year is the song. So album of the year, top category for album record of the year is top category for like individual song. It's like the top one. And the only other rap song to win record of the year is This Is America
Starting point is 00:24:21 from Childish Gambino, which I didn't realize. But apparently that began as a Drake diss track. Oh Yeah, damn like good glad he pivoted cuz I don't know if that song would have gone as hard if it was just talking about Drake rather than like a commentary on like white supremacy in the police state, right? Yeah, it's all tied up in there He was like it started as a Drake diss to be honest as like a funny way of doing it. But then I was like, this shit sounds kind of hard though. So I was like, let me play with it. Like, I wonder if he means like the vibe. He was like making fun of Drake, like with the, don't catch me slipping though. Or, you know, like the little like ad lib ish nature of it. Yeah. I'm curious. What's that? What that demo sounds like? Yeah,
Starting point is 00:25:04 me too. But yeah, you made the right decision, Donald. You made the right decision. He has sold one section of 30 in a 12,000 seat stadium. I'm sorry, one section of 30? Yeah, like completed. I think one section of 30 is completely sold out out of a 12,000 seat stadium. I thought he was like, he sold 30 fucking seats in a 12,000 seater. Yeah, it's not a good look. And I mean, I feel like the people that really go hard for Drake's though, it's just like,
Starting point is 00:25:32 you're telling on yourself in a weird way that like you can't quite put together fully. But at least some good came out of the Grammys. Chapel Rowan made a point to talk to all the music industry executives and be like, how about a living fucking wage for the artists you profit off of you scumbags? And not just like the people who are like starving artists, just starting out, like it's shocking when you read accounts of like artists who you've heard of,
Starting point is 00:26:00 who like have a couple hit songs are like can't live off of just music. That's like the music industry has been completely taken over and fought like in the 70s and 80s, like you had a hit song and you could live off of that. And rightly so. That's a piece of media that is like everybody wants to have a hit song, everybody. But now it's just it just all goes to the record executives. Right. Yeah, it's it's just, it just all goes to the record executives. Right. Yeah. It's, it's all bad.
Starting point is 00:26:28 It's all bad. Uh, I mean like that's where, you know, you get those three 60 deals that people are in now and they're like, wait, I give you a cut of everything, but you didn't have anything to do with the other. This is our deal. Yeah. Take it or leave it. The other good thing that came of it is I know what my new look is going to be.
Starting point is 00:26:44 I'm going to be wearing houses on my head. Hold on. Have some respect. That's a Transylvanian castle? Yeah, that's it. No, your house. That shit. A castle wearable vampire castle headpiece, which costs a mere $4,600, which actually like, I don't know. It's also a toy Yeah, it's reasonable. That's the shittiest castle I've seen for for that like that looks like you got like poster shipping tubes and a box It really looks like he made that in home at yeah. Yeah. Yeah, like okay and now show us what a house look like Jaden, sorry, man. That's just as someone whose house burned down, just the visual of someone wearing a house on their head flippantly. Yeah. I don't know, bro. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:27:33 What if he had worn your house on the Grammys? That would have been fucking wild. You motherfucker. I gave you meme gold with that video we did at Vanity Fair together. Truly. You were, people don't know, man. People don't know bro. Check out Jaden Smith blows his own mind with facts from the internet. That's a video I directed and conceived. And then, uh, Kanye and his wife, Bianca Sensori.

They just got in their car and left They're like, let's hit the red carpet and go and people were like they got kicked out and they're like, no, they're just weird They went they went to do a stunt and left and then there's there's stories about lip readers being like he was like take Off the coat. I got your back and then turn around. She's like, are you sure it's just very um
Starting point is 00:28:21 That's like his thing. Like she's always out in like the most wild. Yeah, yeah. Revealing shit. I just don't know what this relationship is when you're with like such an intense narcissist like Kanye West and you're, God, whatever, man. We learned last week, Miles, that Carmen Electra was a name that was made up by Prince. What? For her. Her name was like Lee. week, miles that Carmen Electra was a name that was made up by Prince. What for her? Her name was like Lee.
Starting point is 00:28:52 One of his talent spotters found her in a club when she was a teenager. And that's like, your name is now one of his talent spotters. Yeah. Found her as a teen. I'm like, Oh, what are you doing? Mr. Purple? He named her Carmen Electra though. The name is good. But Bianca Sensori, that sounds like it was named by J.K. Rowling. Yeah. Yeah. Bianca Sensori.
