I went on one of those, like, spinning swing rides down to shore.
Oh, you know, the one, yeah, that, like, raises up and then spins you around.
Man, that was, like, the most fun.
It's so much fun.
Like, if it was socially acceptable to be like, wee, he he, I would have been, I just, I, like, put my hands out.
Huh?
This was in Jersey?
Yeah, Jersey.
Oh.
Oh, is that why?
Because I'm like,
On the boards.
You could,

You know what I mean?

So there was actually a kid next to me doing that
And I was making fun of them
That's what I was doing
Yeah who the fuck said that
I remember when I was like
11 down the shore
We were throwing pebbles
At houses
For some reason
Um
Me and my slightly older cousins
Rocks through windows
We were just throwing pebbles
and I guess we threw it
at the wrong house
and some kids came out
chased us down
and they said
head or gut man
header gut
I was like
I don't want to either
I started crying
and they let me go
because it was too pathetic
hell yeah
the cadence of that story
started off like a Joe Biden story
I remember being down the shore
and throw pebbles.
I know how you guys do it.
You throw pebbles at the sliding glass doors.
No, that was just like, I was very confused.
I was like, is he?
Did his brain go Biden?
I know how you do.
I know, I know how it is.
You're throwing putting razor blades in the, what was it?
The rain jar?
Yeah, I will never forget rain jar because I'm so confused.
I know how you guys do it.
You put the razor blades in the rain jars, getting nice and rusty.
Google range jar.
What?
What is something?
had just been like, what right
then? And that was the end of his
presidential bid. Me and my
Negro acquaintance. Grit.
And we were throwing
rocks. He's his name is
Grick. Grits.
Grits. That's what we called
him. Never had grits before.
So I was at his house.
And his mama, I tell you.
Oh, come on. I know. I know
how you guys do it.
With the razor blades in the
range. Let me just look that up and see

razor blades in the
range art

and you fill

the darn cement
over there
Corpap
was a bad dude
and he ran
a bunch of bad boys

you had to wear a bathing cap
and show yourself up on the board

I was going down the shore
throwing pebbles
of the sliding glass windows
like you did back in that time

Who's corned pop?
He was a bad dad
a little bit bigger cousins
and the kid coming out

they let me go mouse
all right
um
thanks man
well thank you everyone
for coming to the ribbon cutting
ceremony for the Amelia Earhart
library
and thank you so much
Vice President Biden for that.
Anyways.
Have you ever looked at a piece of abstract art or music or poetry and thought,
that's just a bunch of pretentious nonsense?
Well, that's exactly what two bored Australian soldiers set out to prove during World War II.
When they pulled off what was either a bold literary hoax or a grand poetic experiment,
publishing over a dozen intentionally bad but highly acclaimed works of expressionist
poetry under the name Earn Malley in an incident that caused a media firestorm and even
a criminal trial. The Earn Malley episode made fools of believers and critics alike and still
fascinates poetry lovers to this day. We break down the truth, the lies in the poetry in between
on hoax, a new podcast hosted by me, Lizzie Logan, and me, Dana Schwartz. Every episode, hoax explores
an audacious fraud or ruse from history, from forged artworks to the original fake news, to try and
answer why we believe.

Hey, everyone, it's Jay Chetty, and on today's episode of On Purpose, I'm joined by four-time Grand Slam champion Naomi Osaka.
What I was dealing with at the time, feeling a shame, going against everything an athlete stood for.
After I pulled out of the French Open, I flew ranked as number one in the world in women's singles.
A four-time Grand Slam tennis champion, Naomi Osaka.
We would be constantly on the tennis court, and I would watch other kids go to summer vacation.
And I would always think, dang, like, I kind of want to be someone else.
What was the feeling like when you won your first Grand Slam at the U.S. Open?
When I was growing up, I had dreams of playing Serena.
my first grand slam final.
It felt like a dream came true.
I was just reading comments of people saying that I didn't deserve to win.

Hello, the internet, and welcome to this week trend edition of...
They're daily sight, guys!
Yeah.
My name is Jack O'Brien.
That over there is Mr. Miles Gray.
Hey!
Hey. Hey. Hey. He's back. Been up for about seven hours now. But it's great to be here in the morning.
Great to be back in the United States of America. Thank you to everybody in Denmark.
Shout out. Randy, a listener from Denmark, hit laced me with some recommendations while I was out there.
Oh, yeah. You know, we're not anywhere. Any country goes, Zite gang is there as as demonstrated.
Where we go one, we go all. Exactly. Exactly. I didn't know you were a public.
announcing where you were so I was keeping it I will afterwards I say after I say after because I don't want people I don't want people just going there while I'm there to try and catch a glimpse of me and my family and that would happen man oh that would happen it's so annoying when our fans are just waiting for us somewhere we're about to land you know her majesty hates whenever we go out somewhere and I go Zite gang just someone who's working at a place and I go what I go never mind never mind never
Hey, I saw that look you gave me.
Is that gang, my friend?
Huh?
No.
Huh?
Sure, man.
Yeah.
I have the opposite, like where I get way too excited if somebody recognizes me in front of my wife.
She's like, God, you haven't stopped smiling for like three hours.
Like, I know it's so annoying, right?
I think it's as exciting for me as it probably is for a list.
to see us in public because I'm like, oh my God, you guys.
They're like, oh my God, you exist.
I'm like, oh, my God, you guys exist.
You do too?
In physical space.
Holy shit.
Well, we're thrilled to have you back, Miles.
There's so much to catch you up on.
I know.
I wish something good happens.
Like when you go out of town and some real shit goes down.
We just get a bunch of more police state bullshit.
Did you hear Cindy Sweeney might be a registered Republican, dude?
Oh, no.
Oh, my God.
No, no, no, no.
Why?
So we're all pretty broken up about that.
We'll talk about that more on tomorrow's episode.
Okay, all right.
In depth.
Yeah, let me know about that.
Oh.
But first, Miles, we do like to, on these weekend trending episodes.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know, normal episodes, we tell you, ask the guests what's something they think is overrated, underrated.
This one, we like to do it a little different and ask each other what's something we think is overrated, underrated.
Miles, is there something that you think is overrated, oh.
Overrated?
Overrated?
We're going over?
Yeah.
Or under whichever one you want.
I'll just, I'll start off with this.
Naming your kid fucking Goliath.
Okay?
Oh.
I was at Tivoli Park, okay?
The theme park in Copenhagen where, you know, Walt Disney stole the idea for like the rides and was like, oh shit, I could do this.
But maybe a little more racist.
And there was this American dude kept calling for his son, Goliath.
And I thought it was a, I didn't know.
I just heard a guy going, Goliath.
Goliath.
And I was like, what the fuck am I hearing behind me?
And already, I was already like, I didn't want to hear an American yelling in public.
So I was like, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck.
Turn around.
This guy's like little, little four-year-old kid named Goliath.
The least Goliath-looking motherfucker I've ever seen, okay?
Wow.
And this dad clearly had the vibe of like, a, that's my son, Goliath.
Like, you could tell he probably whatever, whatever.
deal he made with his poor partner
to be like, I'm naming this one, Goliath.
I get the first one. I called Dibs.
He's called Goliath.
The pregnancy test comes in.
They're like, Dibs.
Dibs. Got it, got it, got it.
Pregnancy. Yeah. Gender reveal.
It's just Goliath just comes out
and written on paper everywhere.
He will stride the world
like a Goliath.
I just felt weird because it clear, I mean, look,
I don't know if that's a family name.
I know it from the Bible as a dude who took a pretty big
L for thinking he was
Yeah, for thinking he was
tough shit just being big and some other
dudes just came around and was kind of outsmarted you and
blinded, just smacked you with a rock.
I'd be fucked up if that's how this
kid's, this kid is faded
to get hit with a stone by an
even smaller kid. Yeah, right? Exactly.
I'm like, I don't know if you want his name
to determine what his life's going to be
because it sounds like he's going to be a bully
who just takes the historic
L. And I don't know
if that's what you want for your kid.
like it has bringing it back we're bringing it back
to reference to the bird eating spider
okay no not this guy
sorry and like also even if you're into the
Bible like you're gonna name him after the bad
guys in the Bible
like punches pilot get over here
now it's just a really weird look
I had more questions for Madison and I were like
the fuck this guy's kids is this guy
this guy rules yeah that's a dog's name
you know what I mean
so I don't know just don't name your
kids after like like antagonists that end up fucking losing in the story in the grand
scheme of things just a weird look it's a weird look darts vader yeah d'art smeter get over
aniken get over i mean you know there's motherfuckers name aniken um and that's also judis i wonder
how popular name judas is because jude is is but who names her kid judas judas would be
judas would be a tough one that would be a fucking wild one yeah exactly benedict arnold
yeah don't get over here
Marquis de Saad now
Wait what I mean
Marquita Saab
For a freak
Marquis
Yeah that's a good name
But yeah anyway
Don't you name your kid
That's like name your kid
Thanos or whatever
It's not gonna
That's not gonna make your kid
A tough guy
Okay
It's a tough one because you know
Judas you could go shorten to Jude
You know
A lot of these names you could shorten
But Goliath
I'm trying to think of like
Ath
Why liar
What are you
Mike Tyson singing as like F, F, F, F, F, F, F, F.
No, it's a tough one to shorten, I'm just saying.
Golly.
No, that's like, I feel like you're about to say a golly wog or some racist shit like that.
So, golly lieth?
You could probably go Ali in the middle.
Yeah.
Why do that?
Just do the O-L-I.
That's all I got.
That's all I got for this poor young man.
Just name the kid, whatever, man.
That's not, it's not an enhancement in that way.
It just causes more.
For someone like me, I just have all more questions.
I'm now, I'm now like gaming out what this kid's life's going to be.
If it was just like, hey, Benjamin, I'd be like, yeah, whatever.
I'd put it in the same family of names as Maverick Axel.
And you know what I mean?
Like those names that are like aggressively cool.
Like, yeah, yeah.
Remington.
That people name their kids after guns and shit.
They're just like naming their kids like their movie protagonists.
Yeah, exactly.
Maximus.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, poor guy.
I wonder if that guy even knows.
Does he even know the Bible?
Or he's just like, man, it's a sick-ass roller coaster at six-flats.
Yeah.
No. Okay, sure.
I know somebody named Achilles, but that's unusual.
But that is, again, you're just putting your kid in a position to get shot in the heel.
Yeah, right.
Even like there was Achilles Smith, the quarterback, but that was Achilles.
You know what I mean?
Achilles.
They didn't go full Achilles.
That's just, yeah, whatever.
All right.
I got two overrated.
One is untost pasta.
If you ever order pasta and they put the sauce on only one small part of the pasta.
Oh, just ladle it on top.
And then all the other pasta just like sticks together.
Fuck that.
That seems to be the default when you order pasta from a restaurant that's like, you know, not a fine dining restaurant.
Yeah, that's like a quick get the plates out.
Yeah.
Yeah.
They just put a doll up on top of a thing of like dry ass spaghetti.
and anybody knows
just toss that shit
just like all you need to do
is put it do what you already
did and then just shake that shit
like you tossing a cell
oh you'd rather just put in a big fucking container
like
yeah yeah just give it a couple shakes
I don't know I bet I could request that
but I never remember too
now look I know that I was just
in friggin Denmark
but if I must I should say that
in Italy the thing you want to do
is once your pasta cooks you save a little bit
of the pasta water, the starchy water.
Then you introduce your sauce
to your noodles with a little bit of the starchy
water and let that reduce a bit so you can
really get the flavor diffused
to the pasta. I missed you so much.
This isn't even making me angry. This is just
making me happy you're back.
So I got to do it. Yeah, but let the pasta do its job.
The job is not to sit there
dry and not stick to other pasta.
It's supposed to be coated
with sauce. That's what that's his job.
And then my other overrated,
I got to say, you know, every
year, I come back to the shore, go down the boards, and I get a, I get a glimpse via the
t-shirts of like, what's popping with the kids. Oh, yeah, the phrase these. The phrase T's,
um, Italian Bramrot is here. It has, it has broken into the Jersey shore. Bombardino
Concordillo. Oh, yeah. Yeah. It's just like random ones. Yeah, it's got that one. Chimpanzee
Bananini. Yes. I didn't see chimpanzee bannanini, which would be better than the other
one that you said, which doesn't really
the dum-thum-tum-tum-tum-sah-hur.
Yeah, yeah, that one doesn't really like scan
when it's written out.
Yeah.
But maybe Chimpanzee Bananini was sold out.
I'm not, I'm unsure.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Or maybe it like makes too much sense
that people are like, oh, that's cute
instead of it being like, what the fuck is that?
Which is the intention.
The boo-boo is everywhere.
Yeah.
I will say,
uh,
Trump's popularity
is what I'm saying
is overrated currently
he is struggling
on the boardwalk
With the phrase teas
The phrase teas are just
I didn't see anything new
Like last year it was all Trump
You know with the election coming up
Yeah yeah yeah
Lots of Trump shit
It just seems like it's like
Leftover inventory at this point
Like you know
Can't kill me shit
His face like photoshopped
On the 50 cent
On the you know
Get Richard by trying album
Yeah
One like I'm voting for a
felon the only new one that I saw and maybe this was here last year because it does like the
references are somewhat outdated but it's a trump errors tour instead of eras tour and trump
in place of taylor swift and then like the different errors are like i don't know like one of the
juliani one of them is the uh lawyer from his from the like stop the steel shit remember the
um oh uh sydney pow yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah exactly yeah other ones it was
unclear like it would have been a perfect option these were like it's like for libs to make
fun of trump i think those are his errors but it was it was like poorly executed yeah yeah it was
like trump errors they can't be i'm sure i'm sure like a t-shirt shop that relies on imported
cheap t-shirts and also like heat transfer graphics that i'm almost positive or not being
made in the United States.
Yeah.
I don't think Taylor Swift signed off on this one.
You hate to see it.
You do hate to see it.
I will say one new feature, there is a Zoltar machine, like from Big, but with a Trump
likeness.
Oh.
Where he, like, tells all.
And I did, uh, with the voice and shit.
With the voice, with a bad impression.
Uh, I did, I did test it out because I had to.
Oh my God.
Jack.
journalism. Um, so I got my fortune told by Trump. And your fortune, Trump says, you're about to realize
just how many friends you really have like a rally full of supporters, all cheering you on.
People are drawn to your confidence and leadership. Remember, your network is your greatest
strength. And with friends like these, you can achieve anything. So they've like removed any of the
insecurity. And he just gives you vaguely positive advice. Yeah, yeah. He also gives you your lucky
numbers for some reason
I mean you got to it's got to be a real
your fortune. Trump says
yeah they just like put a Trump mask on a Zoltar
machine but
then he just gives you positive advice
that have vague references to
things having to do with Trump
but
looks he looks like
absolute shit I don't know if you can see
yeah it looks like a it looks like a
teenager like a really
unhealthy teenager yeah he looks like
a Hitler you like a mega Hitler
I was the only person I saw
using that machine
I looked around many times to
make sure as many people were in a trench coat and shit
fucking glasses
like you're buying a fucking old porno tape in the 90s
for it to become big and it didn't do that
so yet another broken promise from this asshole
you know did you put it under your pillow
fuck
you know you got to do that they leave that out
your fucking pillow or else it won't come true
Yeah, Miles.
What's something you think's underrated?
Man, okay, so coming from a place with socialized health care, you know, like, you know, we have a different, we sort of vibrate at a fucked up frequency in the United States, you know, when you're out there in the streets walking around.
I think being whimsical is really underrated, embracing the whimsy of life, the just and also just the small pleasures because of the fact that we are so stretched thin.
having to survive, having to toil, wondering what happens if I get hurt in any capacity.
Do I have the money to pay for such things?
We lose something when we walk around.
We're fucking stressed.
And people say this.
I think this is nothing new to people who travel and just generally, this is just a very unique thing.
It's like, we got this fucking tension we have.
In Denmark, Hermesci and I just saw, it was like a summer day.
We saw a guy like in a business suit going from like,
I think maybe one meeting to another, just enjoying the fuck out of an ice cream sandwich.
Like, fucking loving this thing.
He was like, it was almost like he was like, yippee, like as he was eating it.
And we both were so struck by it.
I'm like, look at this.
Like, my energy was like, look at this motherfucker enjoying the ice cream sandwich and shit.
You should have tightened his ass up, man.
Yeah, exactly.
You should have treated him like that kid who walked out of anger management.
I almost said, hey, bro, let me think you fucking whimsy, bro.
Oh, hold on, I got something for you.
Whimsical. You're a whimsical motherfucker, aren't you? And then I had to realize how that's been
taken from us with capitalism in the United States. Like, we can't fucking go, like, to have a,
like a picnic just on a whim, you know? Do shit, enjoy it. I mean, like, we can when we're not
working these other things. But, like, there's just all this stress that we have that I feel like
prevents us from these, like, very small pleasures that life offers. Like, merely having an
ice cream sandwich while you're working and love.
Well, in business.
Yeah.
Business attire.
And I was just like, seeing that really struck me as sort of like being like, man, it really,
because like when I think of that too, it was like, man, if I did that, I might have to kick my own ass.
But then I'm like, then I have to examine that.
You got to get tougher, man.
Yeah.
And then I'm like, why am I?
Fuck do you think you are?
Why am I getting hostile towards this version of me that's enjoying something really simple and like being happy?
And more so than I just think like, it's important that we.
we have those moments just generally.
Like they're very life.
They're like small,
but they actually can bring a lot of pleasure.
And so my,
my version of that was just drinking so much soda.
He's a bunch of nice sodas.
Dude,
they have one soda.
I posted on my stories.
This shit hits like fucking McDonald's Sprite.
Wow.
I fucking can.
Okay.
And I was like,
is it a lemon lime beverage?
Yeah.
It's like a Sprite,
a Jace.
like just big ass bubbles real carbonace
I was like the Britney Brosky
sort of meme I went mm and then I went
and her majesty was like what what's going on
I the way I went from what's going on it seems like there's a war
being waged inside your mouth
she was with me when I bought this I go I go oh my god
and she's like this shit hit like McDonald's Sprite she's like
what and I'm like is that good she turned her head again
she looked back I fucking down the whole can
And I was like, I'm getting another one.
She's like, oh, you're 40 years old.
You should not be just smanging back-to-back cans of soda.
And I'm like, I'm on a break.
I'm on a break.
And also, I don't drink soda.
I don't drink that much soda like, you know, at home.
I'm mostly drinking water and shit.
So anyway, small pleasures, get into it, be whimsical.
Go for a fucking bike ride.
Go fucking play your recorder in a field.
I don't know.
Just do something.
All of this is assuming that you are abroad.
If you're back home, you're in the fucking octagon.
keep your head on a swivel out there
because we're all like NFL players
with no guaranteed money.
You know, one injury and we're out the league.
It's out.
And I think that's what's like important.
I think also just to remind ourselves like that's what we should be
striving for.
Like we should be pursuing policies that allow us to go
in our day to day lives.
Yes.
To not have to fucking have our fist balled up because we're worried about
just the fucking all the existential threats that exist around us.
Not to say that they don't exist in other places.
but like, God, we are, we, we have had so much robbed from us due to inequality.
It's really, it, I just, God, golly, but hey, golly, reminds you.
I know how it is.
I know how you guys do.
I said, hey, get off.
When I say, get off the boards, you get off the boards.
Let's go Biden, let's say.
My underrated is how little we know about nature, how few of the animals that are out there
are known.
um most most animals most insects have not been discovered i was something i didn't realize
there there's this article somebody not not like a professional scientist out there looking to
discover a new species just somebody was out in a cloud forest on like i don't know
zip line or doing something up there yeah and they were like damn that tree branch is moving
and it appears to have legs
we know of stick bugs
when a little twig
that is a whole ass tree branch
the size of a human adult forearm
was this posted like last week or the week before
that was like the heaviest bug or whatever
they took a picture and it is a new species
of stick bug that is the heaviest insect
in Australia
Australia is the place with
that spider that I already referenced
the Goliath bird-eating spider
that eats birds
which is heavier than that
but and it was just something
that someone discovered
because they took a picture
of something that was weird
there's all sorts of like
I don't know
like that's a whole genre
of shit that shows up
in my social media feed
of like what animal is this
on like Reddit or social media
where like things just look like
like there's like an alien symbiot
like right right it's like what is this puddle of black oil that is like oozing around the ground
but then appears to be sentient and like move away when i try and poke it with a stick
uh it talks like natasha leone yeah i always assume that somewhere down in the comments like some
scientist is coming in and being like actually that's not weird that's just you know
common sentient oil flick um move on but the national geographic article about the colossal stick
bug, I don't know if that's what they're calling it, but
this new species
notes that while nearly
2 million insect species
have been identified, as many as 30 million
remain unidentified.
So, hell, yeah. So many.
Most of them. Most of these
insects are just like unknown.
The world is just full of these like fucking mysteries
that I just assumed
yeah, I talk about this.
a lot. Like, I just came out of my, you know, education thinking, like, well, science knows everything.
Yeah, we've seen it all. We figured it. We figured it all out. And like, it's, there's nothing that
interesting. It's like 91% of the species, uh, ocean species have yet to be classified. More than
80% of the ocean is like unmapped, unobserved, unexplored. Um, and then, yeah, like, the ocean,
all we have is like what they find when they drop a hook in the water and like something bites it.
yeah or like a camera that's deep enough to just see like maybe the 20 meters in front of it
and then they're like what the fuck was that yeah a horror movie just like there's so many videos
you see that with deep sea exploration we're like yeah the fuck is that yo no clue no clue why are all
these scientists saying yo and punching each other they're running around there submersible
um all right that's my underrated let's take a quick break we'll uh ease miles back into the news
We'll be right back.
In 1920, a magazine article announced something incredible.
Two young girls had photographed real fairies.
But even more extraordinary than the magazine article's claim
was the identity of the man who wrote the article,
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the man who wrote Sherlock Holmes.
Yes, the man who invented.
literature's most brilliant detective was fooled by two girls into thinking fairies were real.
How did they do it?
And why does it seem like so many smart people keep falling for outlandish tricks?
These are the questions we explore in hoax, a new podcast from me, Dana Schwartz, the host of Noble Blood.
And me, Lizzie Logan.

Hey, everyone, it's Jay Shetty,
and on today's episode of On Purpose,
I'm joined by four-time Grand Slam champion,
Naomi Osaka.
What I was dealing with at the time,
feeling ashamed, going against everything
an athlete stood for.
After I pulled out of the French Open, I flew.
Ranked as number one in the world in women's singles.
A four-time Grand Slam tennis champion, Naomi Osaka.
We would be constantly on the tennis court,
and I would watch other kids go to summer vacation.
And I would always think, dang, like,
I kind of want to be someone else.
What was the feeling like when you won your first grand slam
at the U.S. Open?
When I was growing up,
I had dreams of playing Serena in my first grand slam final.
It felt like a dream came true.
I was just reading comments of people saying that I didn't deserve to win.
Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the IHartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
And we're back.
We're back.
You ever just get on a set of swings, spinning around and say, we?
Hell no
I believe you get your ass kicked
for doing something like that
I knew you would pick the right movie reference
to answer that
Of course you get your ass kick for doing something
You should get your ass kicked doing something like that
Man, you're on a fucking sweet
You better be seven years old
Yeah that's right
You better be under seven or over 70
Yeah exactly
Doesn't work so well in your 40s
No
All right JD Vant
So this was something that happened
while you were out. They were talking about this
for a while, but J.D. Vance, Pam Bondi,
Cash Patel were
having a big meeting where they were going to figure out
how to respond to the Epstein scandal.
At first, it was going to happen
at J.D. Vance's home. The media
was like, okay, like,
this is a big deal. He was like,
I don't want a bunch of cameras outside of my house.
I'm just living a normal life,
preparing food
to the soundtrack of
the first Noel.
and boy bands
last week we covered
the leak of his
of his Spotify playlist
Was that for real?
I saw that
that would seem like the
okay hell yeah
yeah he has two
two playlists were leaked
two of his Spotify playlist
were leaked
and all the other ones
from this source
or not all of them
but many of them have been confirmed
one was called like gold on the ceiling
in reference to
I think it was just like
generated by being like
like Spotify, make me a playlist for people who like that Black Key song.
Right.
But his making dinner mix was like, you know, his genuine mixing.
You could tell because the first song was the first Noel.
And then it was just a bunch of boy band shit.
But anyways, perhaps he got a little scared because people found out about a secret dinner making thing.
So he moved the dinner to the White House.
We don't know, like we didn't, the media was not there for the meeting, but he did.
have an appearance on Fox News over the weekend.
And his, the strategy seems to be the same strategy they had before,
which is like blaming Joe Biden somehow for doing the thing that they're doing now.
So like, he just like got mad at the Biden administration for doing absolutely nothing while
Trump has, quote, demanded full transparency, but then they're not doing the full
transparency. Yeah. I mean, he tried. You know, he really, he really said it's all it's all these left-wing
people. Here's a clip of him just saying the name that you're not supposed to talk about, J.D., didn't you
follow the orders? We're pretending it doesn't happen anymore. I have to say, Maria, I laugh at the
Democrats who are now all of a sudden so interested in the Epstein files. For four years, Joe Biden and the
Democrats did absolutely nothing about this story. We know that Jeffrey Epstein had a lot of connections with
left-wing politicians and left-wing billionaires.
And now President Trump has demanded full transparency from this.
And yet somehow the Democrats are attacking him and not the Biden administration, which
did nothing for four years.
What a fucking flimsy argument.
So, okay, so being connected to Jeffrey Epstein is bad, objectively.
Right. Is that what we're saying?
Because, is that.
Like, we all do know that Trump is on the list.
And that's why you're holding it back.
But every, so across.
the board anyone who's connected is bad yeah i don't know just to just to renew he was arrested in
2019 which would have been like kind of when he was arrested that would have been a good time to start
looking no no no 2019 so this is this is actually confusing to a lot of people 2019 Trump was actually
the president i don't think so doesn't sound right to me that was biden so he had a couple years to do
it already then correct Biden didn't do shit and there are uh not left wing politicians
but centrist Democrat politicians
connected to the guy
so make sense to me
for the same reason
that Biden can
you know couldn't do anything
was like what am I supposed to do man
they won't let me
with most
things that he was trying to do as president
didn't
did not reveal anything
but you and your whole administration's
whole running whole thing
was we're gonna fucking
let let you see everything
when we get an office
office. Then you saw everything. Then you saw that Donald Trump was on the list. And you were,
you all started cartoonishly loosening your collar all at the same time. Yep. And now you're
being like, they did the thing before that we're doing now. So we're, we're, it's so, it's so
confusing. I don't know what's bad anymore. So it's bad to know Jeffrey Epsey. Is it bad to be in the
documents but some people that are in there aren't bad so then we have to be okay but if you're
if you're a democrat or on center left then it's bad that everyone on their right look you
they don't know how to do a cover up because they have a senile old man at the helm of this whole
thing who doesn't know how to stop talking in any way this guy was doing a fucking i saw that
fucking weird roof walk and talk he did last week holy shit and then did he actually piss himself
Did you see that picture where it looked like he was full Liam Neeson coming out of a pub?
I did not see that picture.
Yeah, it could be, could be fake.
It could be just a wishful moment on my end.
No, I mean, like it looked like drunk Liam Neeson who pissed himself.
Oh, Liam Neeson coming out of the pub.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But yeah, this is, there seems to be so many issues with trying to make this thing go away.
This is the thing with J.D. Vanceau.
I know he's stupid, but also at the same time, are you trying to keep the story alive?
Like, why do a secret meeting with everybody except the president?
where you have the chief of staff, Susie Wiles, the deputy AG, Pam Bondi, Cash Patel to talk about
other things, but the Epstein files, or you also be like, look, we got to figure out how we're
going to fucking do this shit because this guy doesn't know what he's doing, or is it,
how do we play this to get the, I mean, like, you know, if I could be president, you know what I mean?
Right.
It would be a little bit a little bit chiller, you know what I mean?
Yeah.
That could be something too, because I've always thought, of all the scandals, this has been
the thing that has made Trump most vulnerable.
And you know, like while there are many people who fawn after Donald Trump, there are plenty of fucking maniacs with money who are pursuing that kind of power and influence who would love nothing more than for this guy to be out of the way.
You know people are looking at this like, yo, I could do this shit way better than this fucking freaky old dude.
Yeah.
And like a lot of the money that went to him and like backed him and a lot of the power that went to him and backed him was like all based on him doing things from a policy perspective.
the JD Vance would continue to do
were he in power
and I'm sure you know
he was the pick of the tech billionaire class
that like came in and like
You want our money?
He's number two.
Yeah, yeah.
But I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Could be you know your policy
and your talking points
have worked when people are like
did he try to fuck that up?
Yeah.
Like it's like an NBA highlight
where they're like,
yo look, you can tell that this guy's
gambling on the game
because he's like a free throw like that shot it in the wrong direction
he heaved it into the stance
what the fuck was that it was a layup to be clear though it should
we do now know that Trump's name appears on the list
yeah that list was available to the Biden administration
yeah like sitting on that shit
as like Trump is getting more more powerful
and it becomes increasingly likely that he's going to defeat you
is so just such a brain fogged fuck up that like like it's such how do you how do you not use that
I think you don't use it because you're on the same team essentially sure that's why you know
like to do that would disrupt the status quo at every level it means power players you know
if if all things are true or you know what people's suspicions are that would have had ramifications
for both Democrats and Republicans and it just behooves them more to be like
whatever, guys, like, yes, we got to stay in power, okay?
Yeah, we got to keep this class war going.
Right.
And, you know, let's be real.
Like, we're on the same side if we're talking about fucking overworking people.
So let's just keep it moving.
You know, I think that's, again, but that won't be the part that anyone talks about,
especially not the GOP, because they're just trying to make it be like,
well, they thought it was so bad.
Why didn't they do anything about it?
Exactly.
It can't be that bad.
And now they say it's bad.
All right.
The art of pointing out the other side's hypocrisy, which literally nobody.
Nobody has thought was actually a valid point for maybe 50 years.
All right, we are coming to the end of an era.
AOL is ending dial-up internet service.
That was somehow still a thing.
This is going to piss off thousands of customers who died in 2005
and we're still being billed 20 years later.
They've announced that they will be scrapping their dial-up internet service on September 30th.
Oh, how do you get a dial-up modem
in the year of our Lord 2025?
Do you have to have like an old
like IMac where the shit was built in
and you just put the little phone line inside?
Yeah, they do they do acknowledge.
They do acknowledge that the service
and the associated software,
the AOL dialer software
and the AOL shield browser,
which are optimized for older operating systems
and dial-up internet connections
will be discontinued.
So like, yeah, you have to be like running
internet explorer and not having updated it since
the first Obama administration, I think, for this to work.
I mean, it was just wild to think, like,
I remember the first modem we had was like 14.4
kilobits per second and then went to 288.
And then there was 56K and every
kilobite per second.
Dude, we have fucking, we have fucking 566.
This shit is so cooked, y'all.
But again, we were loving.
I love it that shit.
I remember losing it when I was like,
oh,
there's 56 now?
We were at 144 a couple months ago.
I can download three JPEGs a day.
Oh my God.
Are you,
watch me download this fucking 5 megabyte
picture in seven hours.
And then when DSL happened, bro,
I remember well,
my dad got DSL and the Matrix trailer came out.
Woo!
The way that shit loaded in 20 minutes.
Boy.
Man, I had the fucking neighbors over and shit.
They'll go, you know, we'll come through, bro.
Come in about three hours.
I'm going to have the Matrix trailer loaded up.
You could sell tickets.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
That was a fucking, it was such a flex.
I remember because my dad was teaching at the time.
So he was able to, like, get it subsidized, like, to get DSL at our house.
And I remember also the modem was the size of like six phone books stacked together.
It was stupid.
Was that, did it still make the sound of R2D2 tantric or?
No, this is like.
No, no, no.
Okay.
This was the digital subscriber line, baby.
This was new.
This was all new, baby.
We had Ethernet.
Ethernet.
I remember.
Ethernet was a huge.
Huge step up.
Lime wire.
Download multiple songs.
Oh.
Oh.
But I mean, how many people even use?
Are there people that?
So, according to the 2019 census.
So six years ago, 0.2% of households were still using dial up for home internet access.
Damn.
and has been below 1% since sometime in 2015.
I can't imagine it's gone anywhere.
I feel like on Twitter and shit,
people would always post shit about to like,
my grandparents still use dial-up.
And I'm like, I don't know.
I was like, no, come on.
Do you know anybody that uses fucking dial-up still?
Yeah, hit us up if you do.
Because that's, that's wild.
And you know what?
Just to honor the moment,
let's just hear it one more time.
One of my favorite songs.
bars
that was my favorite part and then it would go
there were levels to that
at the end
that's when R2D2 comes
that's the sound of R2D2
Oh shit
Oh my God
Let me get it up R2
Um
R2 D2B
That D2B
2B,
Dick 2B
Dick 2 bomb.
We should make sure
we have that URL
R2D2B.
You know
D2B, bro.
So this just can be
a lot of
AI videos generated
of R2D2
fucking good.
Oh, y'all thought
that was his third leg
that he was sliding around on?
Nope.
Nope.
Sorry.
You seen him like pull out
a stun gun,
a lighter,
Hell yeah, bro, he's partying.
You don't think he's got that thing on him?
There was an edit where I remember
the top of his dome will pop open
a tray of cocaine.
That you could say, perfectly, perfectly chopped up
ready for you.
Close it up, close it up, close it up.
All right.
We got a big meeting coming up this week, Miles.
Very exciting.
It's been announced that Trump and Putin
will get together to discuss ways forward
to end the war in Ukraine
on Friday in
Alaska. Oh.
Oh, man. Wow.
This is going to be huge.
This is the first time.
Miles, this is going to be fucking huge. I mean, you get
Trump in there. You've seen him on the
apprentice. That guy fucking closes his deal.
Dude, getting fucking Vladimir in the box, bro?
What's he going to do? This is so sick.
He's got him just where he wants him.
Fucking Chuck Liddell, dude.
This is the first time that Putin's been invited
to the United States outside of the United
nation since 2007
when he joined
George W. Bush for...
I had not seen pictures
from this.
This looks like nobody...
They're like on a fishing boat
together.
Yeah.
I thought it was AI.
Yeah, this shit looks grim as hell.
Putin's got like a big ass jacket
on that like is too
tight for him.
I don't know.
He's like trying to do that like...
It looks like very Rick Owens.
It's oversized.
Probably because it's like a big ass bullet
approved vest.
Yeah.
It's like a puffy one, but then he's got like tight white jeans on.
Hell yeah.
And then Bush is just wearing a big old Hawaiian shirt also appears to be.
A bunch of fish on it.
Just such a fish like a guy, just a fucking guy going fishing shirt.
Hey, man.
But there have been three rounds of talks between Russia and Ukraine that Trump has been like,
I've got them talking.
They're going to, we're going to end the war any minute now this summer.
For some reason,
Those have yet to bring the two sides any closer to peace.
It's almost like his strategy of yelling at one side for not showing enough gratitude
and like bowing down before the side that if you give them an inch,
we'll take a mile like everybody knows this, is not creating a level playing field that's
going to work out for a peace deal.
No, no, no.
And every time it's like, this is what's going to happen.
the Ukraine is going to give up
some land to Russia and then that's the
last of it and then Zelensky's like
bro what the fuck are you
who said you were bar what the fuck
what are you fucking talking about
every time it's either them
or like Russia being like I don't know what
the fuck this dude is talking about
because he wants that Nobel Peace Prize we know that
he's so fucking horny for that
thing it should be noted that having
a meeting with Putin on US soil
is already a major
concession huge win for Putin's
Is he a war criminal?
That I'm sure is going to, also I was thinking about, I was listening to somebody talk about
why all the like capitalist theory for the past, you know, 20 years has been basically
bullshit and we're coming to the end of that and all the theories that we're supposed to
be governing this thing as though it were just, you know, unlimited resources forever.
And like now that's coming to an end and the resources are very limited.
and everybody's having to, like, do what China does
and, like, put their thumb on the scale for their country.
One thing that I remembered was this Thomas Friedman, like, thing from 20 years ago
where he was, like, no two countries that have McDonald's in them have ever gone to war.
Oh, yeah.
And I feel like this war, like that, I feel like maybe that's why, like, the New York Times set
was, like, so fucked up by this war.
Yeah, it was like, these two countries have fucking...
Stop!
You can't do that.
There's a McDonald's right there, dude.
Oh, fuck.
But anyways, already a huge win.
And then when Trump has him, right where he wants him, as we've seen before,
whenever he's in a room with Putin, he just, you know, knelt.
Yeah.
You know, well, first of all, they, like, go off in their separate room where he's like,
I don't want to be around my people.
So who knows why, but Trump seems to be very.
willing to just go along with Putin against the interests of America.
Couldn't be that he's compromised in any way.
Could not be.
But I don't know.
I mean, look,
Trump loves having war criminals on U.S. soil.
We had BB Netanyahu come through to town.
We've got Putin.
Although he did just have this press conference where he was said like Pam Bondi's taking over the D.C.
police and they're federalizing it.
But then he's,
but then he made this little gaff where he was like,
This is where he's, look, they said the meeting's happening in Alaska.
This is where Trump said it's happening.
And it's embarrassing for me to be up here.
You know, I'm going to see Putin.
I'm going to Russia on Friday.
I'm sorry, what?
You're going to where?
You're going to where now?
I'm going to Russia.
I thought you're going to Alaska.
Are you mixing your, are you Sarah Palin now?
You can you see Russia from your house?
Are you in Russia?
We may be giving them Russia in order to get this war over.
I can see him doing some shit like that, you know.
They're like, what are you talking about, sir?
All you have to do is give us Russia and Minneapolis and we're good.
Why?
We like it.
No strategic reasons whatsoever.
Big Kevin Garnett fans.
Big Kevin Garnett fans.
But yeah, the White House first announced that Putin would meet Trump, followed by a three-way meeting between Trump, Putin and Zelensky.
Putin was like, no, that motherfucker's not coming.
Zillinsky's not coming.
And then Trump was like, yeah, I never.
said that he was coming.
The White House was like,
we can't have the meeting without Zelensky there, obviously.
And then Trump was like, yes, we can.
Yes, we can.
The show don't stop for a hoe.
Fuck you're talking about.
But he's just doubling back on whatever Putin wants to do.
Really feels like a teenager who's like dating someone who's like a bad influence.
And they're just like, yeah, yeah, yeah, sure, we're good.
I'll do whatever you want.
Just, you know, yeah, no, I don't like them anymore just so they can like get in the
same room.
Yeah.
I'm pretty sure my grandma hated those earrings anyway.
You could have them.
I mean, I didn't know you took them, but now that I know, it's okay.
That's actually cool.
Yeah, just just fine, just fine, just fine.
I feel good about this meeting.
I think America is going to get a lot of cool stuff out of it.
And yeah, I mean, the location of the meeting hasn't been confirmed.
Maybe it will now be in Russia.
Maybe Alaska will belong to Russia.
We don't know.
but the mayor of Anchorage claimed that she hadn't received any indication whether her city would host the meeting yet locals have been getting short-term rental requests from the Secret Service so oh my god what a fucking clown show and yeah they don't really and we're jack nicholson sitting front row hey that's right you said it man I'm sitting front row at a Gallagher show and I ain't got my rain gear
You know what I'm saying?
Guys want to smash some fruit.

Highly recommend.
It's taken everything I can to not say my like three favorite lines when you mentioned.
I'm going to see that shit immediately.
Immediately.
The only jokes that didn't work for me were the ones that Brian spoiled last week.
So, but yeah, that highly recommends a lot of fun.
Yeah.
Okay.
All right.
We want to talk about crime, which is out of control.
Oh, actually, it's going down.
Shit.
Fuck.
Oh, that's not good.
That's not good for media headlines.
Yeah, we talked about last week how the Trump administration seems set on making future high school history teachers say big balls got his ass kicked.
by two children and that was like as part of the justification for Donald Trump waging war on
private citizens in Washington, D.C. He is asking the FBI to take to the streets to help
fight an imaginary crime wave despite the fact that crime is down 30% year over year for the past
two years and most violent crime is now below pre-pandemic levels. Oh, yeah. And despite the
also the FBI is like we don't know what to do we don't that's not this is not our job I sit at a desk
and like run numbers no you will not you will prevent carjackings now I frame elderly Muslim people
for yeah being terrorists terrorists man this is like not my thing and they're just being
deployed to the streets yeah I'm used to like kind of creating little crimes that we can
pretend we're like preventing the next 9-11 but yeah uh FBI officers were tasked with assisting
local law enforcement in preventing carjackings and other crimes the individual said
despite their general lack of training and traffic stops and their lack of legal authority
to conduct them uh this is apparently causing a morale issue and uh he also like fired
all the people who uh were like running those things and he's like instead I will be your leader
and you will be traffic cops now
instead of doing
Excel spreadsheet entrapment.
It's so funny,
all the people who get into
the shitty federal law enforcement,
the morale is low.
It's like the board customs and border patrol.
We're like,
we don't want to do this.
We're used to doing brutalizing people
in a different way.
And now the FBI is like,
you're going to rough up fucking citizens now.
Do it.
There's a crime wave.
No, we have those statistics.
There isn't.
Things are getting safer.
You should make me tell people that.
We actually do those statistics.
That's my job.
So like the thing that is my job is like I do the crime statistics.
And we've done these numbers like 20 different ways trying to figure out a way to make it seem like there's crime is up.
It's actually going down.
Fucking sucks.
This is so, the media needs to fucking keep framing Trump as out of his fucking mind.
I know.
He claims, it's like, no, he saw homeless people on the way to golf.
Yes.
And he's like, I hereby demand the homeless people to leave D.C.
Like, what are you?
Huh?
What are you saying?
You're not saying anything.
But again, then you have all these people around you who are like, yes, sir, okay.
Well, Pam Bondi will now be in charge of the, the D.C. police because big balls got jumped.
Yeah, big balls got beat up by two.
15 year olds
and Trump
this is like
in the same way
that tariffs
you can like
look at what Trump
was obsessed with
in the 80s
and see that he was
going to do the tariffs
as soon as like
all the smart people
around him turned into
like you know
accelerants people
who were just like
yes sir
and everything he said
like you knew
the tariffs were coming
also arresting
and like
trying black children
as adults
was the thing
that he was obsessed
with in the 80s
you might
remember the Central Park Jogger case where a bunch of children were like accused and falsely
imprisoned and he took out a full page New York Times ad saying that the children should be put
to death a statement that he stood by after it was showed that they were innocent that they
were proven innocent he just he this is a non-stop obsession yeah yeah his anti black right look
again this is all how many times has he been pushing the anti-black racism button since the
Epstein thing yeah and now the mere presence he's like he's like there are black people around dc
did you not know it's called chocolate city did you not know that did you not know that did you just
terrible it's ugly it's unattractive he keeps talking about how the city is not attractive
which what it's not a it's not a child it's not an adolescent child what are you saying
shut the fuck up and it and it serves so many purposes you get to do your anti-black racism
You get to try and normalize, militarized, like, police presence in the U.S. cities.
It's a win-win for everyone in the Project 2025 playbook.
So, Jesus.
But, yeah, we, I think, like most people who live there in any of these cities that Trump targets, they go, that's not what's going on here at all.
Stop talking like it is.
Yeah.
TV judge, Janine Piro, is calling for lowering the age limit that you can try children to 14.
assuming there's not going to be a lot of white children that are caught up in that age lowering.
I thought you were about to say the age of consent and not like, Jesus Christ.
I mean, that's a little too on the note.
That was one of the things that Vance decided at that meeting that they had to push back,
they had to push the timeline on the age of consent lowering back a little bit because it was
just, it's going to be a little, it's going to be, the optics are not going to be great for on that one right now.
Yikes. Donald Trump, you've completely, anyway, whatever.
Anyways, I shouldn't have come back.
I know, man. Hey, welcome back. You're in the octagon now. No fucking whimsy.
Head on a swivel.
Fuck. I was just drinking sooty pops and loving it.
What is it? Cool. Head, cold heart. Can't lose. Is that what it is?
Oh, I don't know. Head on a swivel. Cold, cold, cold, cold. Cold beer. Fresh beer.
Better ingredients. Better ingredients. Better people.

That's what I had to see to reenter the country at that Customs and Border Patrol.
All right.
Complete the statement.
I pledge allegiance to the flag.
Better ingredients, better pizza.
Better pizza, Papa Johns.
And he and Donald Trump is not a pedophile.

Have you overlooked at a piece of abstract art or music or poetry
and thought, that's just a bunch of pretentious nonsense?
That's exactly what two bored Australian
soldiers set out to prove during World War II when they trick the literary world with their
intentionally bad poetry, setting off a major scandal. We break down the truth, the lies, and the poetry
in between on hoax, a new podcast hosted by me, Lizzie Logan, and me, Dana Schwartz. Every
episode, hoax explores an audacious fraud or ruse from history. Listen to hoax on the IHeart
radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. This is an IHeart podcast.
