I don't understand how three cats like shit so much. It's not three cats worth of shit. It's like more than that. Somehow. I don't understand it. Like two dogs worth of shit. Right. Yeah, I don't know any other cute animals. They sound very cute. They are. They are very cute. They poop a lot but they're cute. There's one on the bed over there. He probably just looks like a pillow because he's a lump. But I did say for quite some time that my dog has nine anuses on accident. So why nine anuses?

Because of like cats with nine lives? No, it's like, I was trying to, when you say someone's age in Italian, you say so-and-so has this many years. So she has nine years, but the word for years is Annie and the word for anus is Annie. Annie. So Annie versus Annie. Oh, when I said anus, I meant anus. Yeah.

Oh no, no, no. She does. She has nine anuses. One thing you need to know about me, when I say anus, I mean it. It sounds like your cats have nine anuses with how much shit they're creating. That's right. I swear to God they do. Good fucking Lord.

It's so much poop. I don't understand it. You find out later they're just sneaking spaghetti. deep into Jelly Roll's life story, from being in and out of prison from the age of 13 to being one of today's biggest artists. I was a desperate delusional dreamer. Be a delusional dreamer. Just don't be a desperate delusional dreamer. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty

Please welcome, coming all the way from Italy, the brilliant, the talented, Katie Golden! Hey! Mama mia!

Pasta o'clock! Pasta o'clock! Buddies, pasta o'clock! Time for a nice little party. Pasta o'clock! Pasta o'clock! Hey, no. Mamma mia. Pasta o'clock. Pasta o'clock. Time for a nice spaghetti. Bucca da podcast in time. Am I right?

Yep. Yes. Yeah, I am. Good, okay, I just wanted to make sure that I was right. Yeah, yeah, you got it. Great to have you. Nailed it. Katie, you're a few years ahead of us in Italy in terms of descent into full-blown

fascism, we had faked that direction. Uh, and we're, we're following you. We're on your tail. We're on your six, but I'm just curious how's, how's fascism working out? You know, uh, it is tangibly making life worse for me personally. I am an immigrant and apparently, weird thing about fascists, they don't really like immigrants, do they?

Sorry, I'm taking diligent notes here. Yeah. What? Yeah. Wait, Katie, are you eating all the cats and dogs over there? What's going on? Well, we call them canangatti and and yes, they make a very nice pesto. So yeah, it is, it's bad. Like the immigration system is really backed up because like basically the messages

Pesto. Sorry. The delay on that was great. I don't know if I wanted to like ruin your train of thought and then I couldn't stop myself so I apologize. I had nothing important to say just the immigration system backed up. It's backed up beyond repair. No money is basically being invested into like fixing it obviously because you know the message is, we do not necessarily want you here. Students who love that on a sign, we do not necessarily want you. Welcome to Italy. We don't necessarily want you here. There is no no joke at the immigration office.

There are like they have put up since Maloney took office. They put up these signs that are basically like, do you wanna go home? Let us help you. Which is not, yeah, it's basically like, let's make it easy for you to get the heck out of our country. And yeah, it's not great. Obviously I have a lot of privilege, but there is still.

Name three. Well, one is I have a dog. For now, until dinner. A succulent dog that's just- A succulent dog dinner. And yeah, it is interesting because there is, I live in a city in Turin where people are fairly liberal, pretty accepting. But yeah, it is weird because I guess people don't think about Europe as being more messed up than

America but in a lot of ways it is. And immigration is, I mean, maybe I shouldn't say more messed up than America, but as messed up, if not even more so in terms of like just not considering immigrants to be part of their country, not wanting them. Human beings, yeah. Yeah, even people born in Italy, there was the Olympics, during the Olympics, there was an Olympic champion from Italy who I believe was born here,

or at least lived here like a huge part of her life and she's Italian, but she's also black. And one of the government officials in Maloney's government is like, well, you know, I'm a fan of her being an athlete, but you know, she's not Italian, even though she's literally an Italian citizen. Wow. It's fucked up. It's all fucked up.

Yep. So it's not great. We still got breadsticks though, so hey. Hell yeah. Hey. Well, we got all of the garden too, so don't. Yeah. Come on.

We get it. You're not better than us. When you're here, you're not necessarily family. Yeah. All right. Well, Katie, we're going to get to know you a little bit better in a moment. First, we're going to tell the listeners a couple of things that we're talking about today. Kamala Harris is continuing with her triangulation approach to trying to win

this upcoming election by going on the Joe Rogan podcast. And she's going to drop a bunch of acid. So apparently both presidential candidates will be going on Rogan and yeah, just, I don't know. We'll, we'll talk about that. I don't know what, what there's to say other than. That there's, there's life after CTE folks. What if he fear factors them? What if that's like the gauntlet for the new president every

time? He's like, you have to eat the spiders. I do that in my sleep every day. I could be president. I think that's too many spiders. I don't know. I don't know. You're the one. Everybody says that the spider eating thing is an urban legend, but it's actually true on average. You're just bringing the average up for everyone. I devoured so many spiders.

It's like that old onion video where it's like the unemployment is so low because one guy has like 42,000 jobs. I eat 42,000 spiders a night. That's why everyone averages about six. Yeah. All right. Uh, we'll talk about Trump's weird 40 minute listening party and how some of the artists whose music he played feel about him. Good. Yeah.

Love him. Uh, we're going to talk about George. Um, this is like a very 90s news story. I remember thinking at the time, I was like, this is so dumb. It's very dumb that people care about this, but it's like, it was a big deal. John F. Kennedy Jr. had a magazine in the 90s. Junior. Junior.

And he was hot. And so everyone was like, this is cool. We want to pay attention to this. And now that they've brought it back, so like it was a nascent, like for some reason the magazine was no longer publishing and somebody bought it. And it's now like a QAnon rag with a George Jr. That's like QAnon for babies. So we'll talk about that. We might even get two clowns at the box office. with a George Jr. that's like QAnon for babies.

So we'll talk about that. We might even get two clowns at the box office. The circuses in town folks, bunch of clown movies box office, one of them did bad, one did good. All of that, plenty more. But first, Katie Golden, we do like to ask our guest,

what is something from your search history that's revealing about who you are? Singing, singing penis. Singing penis. Singing penis. Yeah, I did search for that because it is a type of, well, it's animal related as most of my searches. There is an insect called the water boatman. It is an aquatic bug that will do this cool,

one cool trick that doctors hate, which is rubbing its penis against its ribbed abdomen, sort of like a washboard. I met that guy. Yeah. I met him in college one time. Ribbed abdomen with a big penis? Yes please.

Can we clip that? Yeah, let's just make that the cold open from now on, Supervisor Jess. Just rubbing his penis against his abdomen, making sweet, sweet music. Yeah, but this is the water boatman. It makes a very loud sound through stridulation, which is the act of rubbing one body part against another to make a noise. Crickets do it, just not with their penises, but the water boatman does it with his penis and he makes an incredibly loud sound that was loud as a jackhammer, but you can't hear

it that loudly because it is underwater. So that was what I was looking for. So the girlies can't make this, the girly water boatman can't make this sound? No, in fact, the water boatman makes it for the girlies to impress them with his musical instrument. Okay, feminism isn't going to be complete until the girly water boatman can make their own sounds. So would, in human terms, would that be considered stringulation? Rubbing, snapping? Is that rubbing one body part? Stringulation?

Yeah, I said it wrong, but that's okay. Just let's pretend I didn't. I've never thought of it that way, but I guess so. Snapping your finger or even slapping whatever part against wherever. Slapping the base? Yeah, yeah. Or armpit farts was the other one that came to mind. Armpit farts. Yeah. Also how I attracted my wife was.

Yeah. Yeah, with my armpit farts. Get rid of the old one, two right under the pit. Check out this. Look at this. It is. Yeah. It's called strigulation. Strigulation. Strigulation.

Strid. Strid. U. Ulation. Ulation. Strigulation. Strigulation. Strigulation nation. Like I said, strigulation.

I just want to be able to use a fancy word to have an excuse to make armpit farts. When you fart, you can just say, I'm just stridulating, baby. Stridulating, baby. I relate to my friends too well. You know what I mean? I'm like, they're always like, hey, I totally get what you mean. What is, Katie, something that you think is underrated? Okay, so this may run counter to my financial incentives, but putting your phone in phone jail. I have been doing this recently. I have been deciding that maybe Twitter, also known as eggs, is bad for my mind, my soul, and my body. But I lack any kind of self-control.

I have none of that. So I started sort of child blocking myself, physically putting my phone in a cabinet. There's like an app. There's a ton of apps like this, so I'm not really necessarily saying this one in particular is good, but it's called OneSec or something. It interrupts you if you try it. It doesn't block you from getting into the app because for me that just wouldn't work. I would disable it and keep going. But it interrupts you while you're trying to scroll through Twitter and it's like,

hey, you really want to do this? Really? Is this how you're going to spend your afternoon? Scrolling through Twitter? Getting mad? And it has made, it's like emerging from a fog when the fog is made out of neo-Nazis. And it's beautiful. Very fascist of you, first of all, throwing your enemies in jail like that. I know, I'm like, he's innocent.

I do admire your willpower and the fact that you're doing that. Maybe this will be the thing that pushes me over because I do need to do that. I was up at two in the morning scrolling Twitter last night. I have to emphasize I don't have willpower. That's why I downloaded it. That's why I downloaded an app that scold why I downloaded. No, that's why I downloaded an app that like scolds me because I have a lot of guilt. No willpower but a lot of guilt. So if I have an app that scolds me makes me feel

guilty, like a real piece of shit, then I'll actually do it. Is that what it says to you? You're a real piece of shit, Katie. My god, I need to I need to go call my parents AI is gonna use the voice of my parents to be like, oh is that is that who you're spending your evening? Really? Is that what you're doing? I like we I like that we don't use it to like heal our inner children by using it to tell us that it loves us We're like now recreate the toxic environment. We're the same

Get it to do what you want it to do. Make me feel bad. Yeah. What is something you think is overrated? This is kind of a seasonal item. I hope it's not been said too much. But I think that I'm tired of people kind of hating on pumpkin spice stuff, like the stuff about like, ah, pumpkin spice, boo, everyone who gets mad at it. Because it's literally just cinnamon and ginger, which always tastes good. I don't know. It feels like there's this cultural, I don't know which way the pendulum swings this year, but it seemed like there was a pushback against pumpkin spice stuff because it's like, oh, this is something like, you know, I don't know, airheads drink. Christian girl fall or whatever.

Yeah. But people are embracing that lady now. So I think now people are moving back towards it. I don't know. Is pumpkin spice Christian? No, but it's like the, in my mind, like the basic girl like fall thing, they have like that meme of the Christian girl fall. So like the Ugg boots, the jeans. The Ugg boots, the jeans. Timberlands.

Fall leaves, everything. Jacket, yeah. And she's always, she's got like something in her hand and I make the assumption that it's pumpkin spice. I just ask. Yeah, she's actually just drinking from a regular fast. Or Stanley Cup. Stanley Cup is the one now, right? Yeah, for sure. So I think like people associate it with like white girlies,

you know, getting their fall on. And I think there might be like negative associations with that culturally. I see. That people project onto pumpkin spice, but it's not only a spices fault, it's a spice. You know, I'm all for I'm all for denigrating white girlies, but I am. I will defend the spice. I don't actually drink pumpkin spice lattes. I actually don't even eat pumpkin pie because I find pumpkin guts to be yucky. But the spices that create the pumpkin spice base, it's just cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, all spice and cloves.

It's all good. It's my favorite smelling candles. It's very good smelling. And I think we just have that you know, this is a part of our culture now It's a party. Don't phone it those those Christian girl stone own the spice It was made by Jesus I think in the New Testament the New Testament that they sell at Walmart is about like one of the miracles is the New Testament that they sell at Walmart is about. One of the miracles is creating pumpkin spice. Doesn't the dune spice turn people Arian or something? Wasn't that a thing with dune?

It gives them bright blue eyes. Yeah. It makes them drink their own pee. No kidding. So Arian. That's what I said. That's what I mean. You don't like the core pumpkin spice products. Are you having pumpkin spice Cheerios?

You're not doing the pumpkin spice latte or the pumpkin spice. No, I think what Katie is saying is like abortion. She doesn't have to have one to have empathy for it. You know what I mean? Pumpkin spice is exactly like abortion. Everyone should get it in the fall. Right. And we should let the in the fall. Right.

And we should let the white girlies have it. Turns out you're like an astrology person. And it's something that white Christian girlies do get regularly. That's right. Damn, Katie, I missed you. All right. Also, just is there a good, how are you enjoying moodang? You are one of our foremost animal experts. I love moodang. I'm obsessed.

I'm obsessed. I'm loving moodang. I'm loving moodang. I'm no longer a teenager where I'm like, I can't like something that everyone else likes. No, it's great. Moodang is great. I like the hype. I like taking hippos before they were cool.

Before they were cool. No, I love them at the Cincinnati Zoo, Fritz and family. I like, I love hippos. They are incredible. I love, I mean, pick me hippos not so much are, they're not the dangerous ones really. They can still chomp you as Moodang does

in all of her incredible photos. I love that she's always wet and angry. Yeah. And I did have a plumbing disaster recently where, so my entire sink filled up with stinky dish water and I was really smart. So I was like, well, I'm gonna take the U-trap out and have the sink drain into this bucket

so that there's no stinky dishwasher and no stinky dish water in the sink. But I'm bad with sort of volumes and so I flooded the kitchen with stinky dish water which sort of shot out at me with an incredible pressure. And so I got very wet and then I I saw this photo of Moudang being hosed down. And her face and my face were like, I knew they were the same. And I feel the sameness, this oneness. Well, it's just that this was it what I imagined I looked like an angry, tiny hippo getting sprayed with stinky dish water. So I relate to her.

We're sisters. I have a question about the discourse around Mudang, because some people were like, oh, because you know, like, the zoo was having an influx of people and they weren't being nice to Mudang, which is very bad. Oh, no. Yeah, they were like throwing things at her to try to react and stuff. It's really fucked up because they wanted to see her mad. And it's like, okay, people are evil.

And then so you don't need to help out with that. She's like naturally angry. It will happen. Well, like if she was like napping and it's like that bitch barely sleeps like go let her nap. Okay. Yeah. But then the other thing was they were saying that like, those like the zookeepers were problematic or something because they were irritating her. But I hadn't really seen like I'd seen them like give her a little butt tap like slap like I do with my dogs, you know, like an affectionate one or like trying to move her out of her mom's like feeding trough or whatever. But did you ever did you see anything or hear anything about Mudeng not being treated like the goddess she is? I mean, I didn't hear about I didn't realize that guests were throwing things at her. That's definitely a no-no. Yeah, you do not disturb the queen at rest. You know,

zookeepers do have to sometimes annoy animals. I don't think I've seen anything from these zookeepers that indicates anything that would be abusive or mistreating her. But yeah, the fact is like zookeepers will annoy animals just doing their jobs, like giving them medicines that are yucky, hosing them down, keeping them from like swimming around in like buckets of old food. You know, it, that like there maybe sometimes their incentives are not aligned, but no, nothing I've seen indicates that they're doing anything that is,

is really mistreating this pygmy hippo. I did see a video recently of a, someone I believe, not at a zoo, but I think at like a gator farm bapping these gators on the nose, on the snout with a shovel. Oh, with the pan? Yeah. Yeah. And it ran around and I was like, what? Yeah.

People were like, that's so cool. And I was like, why are you, leave them alone. Well, because people don't empathize with gators. They don't see them as being animals that have like a soul or a personality. They're just kind of like, you know, ancient dinosaur-like reptiles. And that's, it's just not true. Bonking them on the nose is going to be really painful for them. Their noses are very sensitive. And gators are really like, they have a lot of dimensions to them, crocodiles and gators. They have, you know, they will form

friendships with each other. They'll play around like some species seem to like be really fixated on like picking up flowers and playing with them. So they're sweet. They're sweet babies. They will eat you for sure. If they're big enough and you're in the water, they will eat you. But that doesn't mean they're less. They're not cute, sweet little babies. Yeah, I think like, I saw like some that are like a little, not domesticated or anything. It's not like, cause they're all wild, but like I saw some that had-

They'd be tamed. Yeah. When it's like a wild animal that you have, that is not domesticated, it's like tamed, like a tamed wolf. Yeah, so it's people who had relationships with certain gators or crocs or whatever, that they were around and they really did love like scritches and like affection and stuff.

So I look at all animals as like different types of puppies because you'll see like a cow playing with a ball and you're like, that's just a big milk puppy. You know? They're all just different puppies. Yeah, some puppies are more likely to snatch your arm off of your body. But yeah, essentially, yeah. I do feel like it's very difficult for a certain set of people on the internet to see a video of an animal being cute, and resist the urge to go into the comments and resist the urge to go into the comments and be like,

I'm actually an expert in this. And that's, that behavior is actually fucked up. That Mudeng's actually pissed right now. Or in the, because we want her to be pissed, we're like, Mudeng's actually really horny right there. Or, you know, whatever ruins it. You'll see like a cute little kangaroo rat. And then someone writes like, actually kangaroo only, kangaroo rats only do this when they're about to die of diarrhea.

Right. Exactly. And then Katie looks at the picture and looks at herself and she's like, I just know I'm about to die of diarrhea. Just like moodang with the host. I've come close a few times to be honest. All right. Let's take a quick break and we'll come back and talk about some news. Hey, Bo. Hey, Matt. Are you ready to tell the readers about the extra special episode we have coming up? It's raining.

Yes. It's pouring. I see so, but you can do that kind of spooky scary. Well, yeah, but it's also because it's a ride. Yeah, I know. I've been down on it. But you're in it, you know? Yeah, exactly.

You're in the spook. I think we have to let them in on our little surprise. Yeah, if you haven't already figured it out, can't believe this, Mariah Carey will be joining us this week. I say, oh, I want to go work with such and such from across town. Yeah, from across town. My girl across town. Yeah, across town. I know a guy across town.

I know a guy. Readers, publicists, Katie's, and finalists, tune in to maybe the most unforgettable episode of Lost Culture Eastus yet. There's one more question which I promised myself I would ask. Can you drop that grunge album? I'm so mad that I haven't done that yet.

But you don't have to be mad because you're in control. I am but who do I drop it with? So should we start a label? Maybe. Wow. Listen to Lost Culture Eastus on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. On Thanksgiving Day 1999, a five-year-old boy

floated alone in the ocean. He had lost his mother trying to reach Florida from Cuba. He looked like a little angel. I mean, he looked so fresh. And his name, Elian Gonzalez, will make headlines everywhere. Elian Gonzalez. Elian, Elian. Elian Gonzalez.

Elian. Elian. Elian Gonzalez. At the heart of the story is a young boy and the question of who he belongs with. His father in Cuba. Mr. Gonzalez wanted to go home and he wanted to take his son with him.

Or his relatives in Miami. Imagine that your mother died trying to get you to freedom. At the heart of it all is still this painful family separation. Something that as a Cuban, I know all too well. Listen to Chess Piece,

Hey, I'm Jay Shetty and I'm the host of On Purpose. My latest episode is with Jelly Roll. This episode is one of the most honest and raw interviews I've ever had.

We go deep into Jelly Roll's life story from being in and out of prison from the age of 13 to being one of today's biggest artists. We talk about guilt, shame, body image and huge life transformations. I was a desperate delusional dreamer and the desperate part got me in a lot of trouble. I encourage delusional dreamers. Be a delusional dreamer. Just don't be a desperate delusional dreamer. I just had such an anger. I was just so mad at life. Everything that wasn't right was everybody's fault but mine. I had such a victim mentality. I took zero

accountability for anything in my life. I was the kid that if you asked what happened, I immediately started with everything but me. It took years for me to break that, like years of work.

Presented by Elf Beauty, founding partner of iHeart Women's Sports. And we're back. I hate to be one of those this is the dumbest timeline people. But it appears that our upcoming presidential election is going to be influenced by a podcast hosted by the fear factor guy, Joe Rogan. So he is a guy Rogaine Rogaine Kamala Harris's campaign is prepping an interview with Joe Rogaine.

Trump is similarly claiming that he's planning to appear on the show. How is she prepping an interview? Like is she microdosing? Like what is she doing? She's going into one of those ice baths over and over. Hot boxing some salvia. Yeah. I don't know how one does drugs. Hot boxing some salvia is indeed how it's done.

I don't know if anybody saw his latest stand-up special or the elephant graveyard analysis of his latest stand-up special, but he is one of our finest stand-up comedians and also one of our only stand-up comedians, according to him. I've never listened to the Joe Rogan podcast all the way through, but apparently he's like, you know, in addition to many other things being an interview podcast, it's also a place where he does the like, we're a dying breed, man. Us stand-up comedians, we're kind of the only ones, the last truth tellers, and then a stand-up specialist, really. Something else.

He looks so much like a minion. Did you, like, he like had the minion out. Like he was wearing like a yellowy shirt and like, getting jeans, and he looked like a minion, straight up minion out there. And I mean, that is cool. That is so funny, he's like doing the bidding of the biggest villain in the world.

Yeah, it kind of fits. He's like going around, like his whole standup was like banana. If the minion outfit fits. Right. Banana, that makes sense. Banana. He is, I can't, as a standup, I'm just like dying inside.

Why don't you talk about him as a standup? Because I'm like, is he a standup? Okay, there are some, I feel like comedians, some admit it and some don't. But like, I try to be really open minded about different types of comedy and like different new comedians and whatever. And I try to be really supportive of like newer comedians. But then sometimes comedians become more of business people, or he's more of a podcaster than a comedian to me

in terms of how good he is or how understanding of the, we hate to call it art, but the art form it is. You know what I mean? I'm just like, to me I'm like, that's not a comedian. That's a man with a mic. It felt very podcasty. His latest special felt like at some points he was just kind of regurgitating some stuff that he remembered he said once on his podcast. Trump is a fan. He said he likes Joe Rogan and indicated he plans to go on his popular podcast before election day. He's a fan. He's election day. He's a fan.

He's a fan. He's a fan. But Rogan has like kind of not, not been a fan of Trump himself. So maybe, maybe it will in fact be Joe Rogan and men under 35 who still use Axe body spray and think that CrossFit is a viable alternative to medical science who will save us after all, but I doubt it. I somehow doubt it. Don't forget the raw goat testicle eating demographic.

That's true. That is literally how Kamala's team is breaking down the demographics. That is under one of their categories. We need the paleo vote, Kamala. Yeah. They really do seem to be just so focused on winning anybody who they're not going to win. They're just like, but how do you imagine if we did though? Imagine that though.

What if we won all the Joe Rogan listeners? What if we won over everybody who voted for George W. Bush? Like, that would be, then we'd be in business and just like totally taking for granted the people who won them the last election. Suburban white ladies who have included more than three Ys in their child's name. It's just a cool way to spell it.

That is Utah culture and I won't stand for you guys making fun of it. My Kayleys and my Mikaela's that utilize all the vowels in the alphabet. And sometimes Y. And sometimes why. And sometimes why. So did everybody get a chance to just like kind of vibe out with Trump and watch this 40 minute listening party from, I guess it was Monday night? This is the day Trump truly became president for me personally, because like this is the most humanizing thing he's ever done. This is what I do when I run out of things to say.

It's just like, you know, hey, listen to this. Hey, I found this. You wanna watch this? It's funny. Hey, here's another song. Hey, check out the song that literally everybody's heard before. No, like, yeah, like there's no,

like I just run out of juice sometimes. I'm like, I don't know, you wanna listen to YMCA a little bit, I'll do a little dance. It's not a good dance. It's kind of stiff. This is like, you know how like everybody looks at like Obama's like songs of the year or whatever, or artists of the year.

This is like him trying to do that, but it's like a playlist from like the 90s. And he like announces this music like it's super obscure. Like, it's the YMCA, you're not gonna believe it you're not gonna believe this folks first you make the Y then you make the M then you make a C and an A yeah yeah that's how people usually do it yeah so funny it's called wonderwall folks like you put you put your right foot in and you put your right foot out and then you build a wall so your right foot can't get back in. Did we ever determine if the hokey pokey was universal?

I feel like there was a point on the internet where people were like, I've never heard of that. I don't know what you're talking about. And I don't think I ever figured out if they were just fucking with me or not. I mean, here it's called the Amigo Strontzo and you do it, but you kind of have to do it in boy girl, boy girl and you're naked. What? None of that's real. No, none of that's real. Man, Jack's like the fuck. You can say anything and I will believe it.

I know, I know. Here in Italy, what do we do? Italiana, boop, boop, the asshole, which I'm happy about. Oh, is that what it is? Amico Stranza. My good friend, asshole. Yeah. That's how Trump introduces his cabinet.

It's customary between somewhere between the seventh and 14th course of any Italian meal to play the traditional game of Amico Stranzo. That is true though. I will not stand for you guys making fun of my fellow people of color, the Italians. How dare you? My POC brethren. That's right. Anti-Italian racism.

There are too many courses in Italy and also like the Thanksgiving which is coming up and I always try to Teach Italians about it. They are so mortified that I am heaping my plate with multiple courses at once They're like it's you mean it's all together. I'm like, yeah, you just take it all at once and it's like wait But they're touching each other Racist about They're like keep this shit segregated. It's not really Italian. We don't necessarily want the turkey touching the green beans.

They're like, we don't want the dark meat anywhere near the white meat. There's something about the color of turkey that really agrees with me for some reason. Anyways, let's just keep that over here, separate. Right, right, right. But I like a vibe. I like just vibing to YMCA for 40 minutes. Yeah. He did include some songs that I passionately made people listen to when I first heard them,

such as Rufus Wainwright's cover of Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah. That's the Shrek version, right? Is it? Yeah, probably. I think it's the Shrek version, right? That it? Yeah, probably. I think it's the Shrek version, right? And that's where I first heard it. They play that when Fiona's frog dad dies, right? Like her dad dies because he's a frog, like not French, but like an actual amphibious frog.

And so he dies. And then they play Hallelujah because like it's a funeral for her frog dad yes that's probably why Trump played it he was like remembering all the I mean he also did the it's time to say goodbye song which yeah yeah he did he'll roll that shit out any chance he gets like I feel like he works out to it's time to say goodbye. If you feel like Trump works out. Yeah, I was going to be like, what do you mean?

He he loves that fucking song. He really doesn't listen to the lyrics of any song. Like he would play a song called I Should Never Be President. Don't vote for me if it's a good beat. Yeah, like as his brain is like melting before our eyes, he keeps playing. It's time to say goodbye. Isn't there that like YG song, fuck Trump or whatever. And I feel like he would play that

because he's like, they're talking about me. Yeah. They want to have sex with me. This guy, this guy right here. I think part of the reason he likes time to say goodbye is that it's one of the reason he likes Time to Say Goodbye is that it's one song that where the artist behind it is not actively suing him for using the song because I think Andrea Bocelli and he are homies. There are reports that Bocelli backed out of... Amigo Stranzo. Amigo Stranzo, there it is. It is officially his Am Estranza, which apparently backed out of Trump's inauguration, which his team denied, arguing that he offered and Trump refused. So they were like, no, of course we would love, we would have loved to do it.

But Trump was too kind. He didn't want me getting involved in controversy, which I don't believe that. But that's about it in terms of people who will allow him to play their music. Rufus Wainwright made a statement, said the song, Hallelujah, by Leonard Cohen has become an anthem dedicated to peace, love, and acceptance of the truth. I've been supremely honored over the years to be connected with this ode to tolerance. Witnessing Trump and his supporters commune with this music last night was the height of blasphemy. Leonard Cohen's estate sent a cease and desist, which they always do and it never gets them to cease.

I know. They'll just go through the entire discography of American folk or whatever. They're just going through every fucking song, getting a cease and desist, stopping and moving on to the next one. No one likes you, bro. They don't even stop because- They're not ceasing and or desisting. Yeah, they do neither.

They cyst. They don't desist. I think it's because they're not technically making money off of it, maybe? Like I remember that like we've looked into this. We were like, why doesn't it work? Why? Like we always hear about them ceasing and desisting and Trump just happens to be the first person who's like, no, fuck you, I'm not going to stop playing your song and he's gotten away with it because I think there's like something

about just like playing the music for an audience that isn't necessarily paying. I don't know. I don't know. They're paying. They're paying. They just don't know it. We're all paying.

Yeah. There's a lot of laws also like when he was president of that country you guys have, he was like doing a lot of campaign events in federal buildings and stuff. He used federal property to do campaigning. He kind of tried that recently at the Veterans Cemetery. He never got in trouble for that. There are laws. You're not supposed to be president and be like, I not supposed to be president and be like, I'm going to like host a campaign reality at the White House because that's considered in poor taste for something conflict of interest maybe.

Fucking whatever. This guy rules. He's having a he's just having a party up there. He's also like gotten indicted and not gotten in trouble. He's just off doing whatever. I did nothing wrong and they indicted me. They indicted me. They indicted me. That's me getting road rage when somebody honks at me. I'm like, I did nothing wrong and they indicted me. The other artist featured in his series finale for the art form of music,

included Guns N' Roses, Sinead O'Connor. Uh, and they've all already complained. Well, I guess it would be the estate of Sinead O'Connor. The village people, however, like I, I guess they have complained in the past, but they're also like, this has been really like, we have greatly benefited from his use of our song. So we're going to let it ride. And why have they like.

I think it's just brought in it like brought in it is how is a that's becoming an English word since you left. Brought in it brought back. Brought in it. Uh, I think it's just brought it to people's attention, but it's a song again. You know, he's got a lot of. I don't go out and buy. I don't buy like, buy. I don't buy.

How does that work in their favor though? When someone's like, remember YMCA? I'm like, oh, I got to buy their album. How does it make, are just people hitting it up, playing it up on Spotify? People are actually being more gay and that's why it's really bad thing. It's like YMCA. I forgot to be gay for a minute there, but thanks for reminding me. Oh my god, I'm gay now.

Alright, let's take a quick break and we'll be right back. Hey Matt. Are you ready to tell the readers about the extra special episode we have coming up? It's raining. Yes. It's pouring. I see so, but you can do that kind of spooky scary. Well, yeah, but it's also because it's a ride. Yeah, I know. Up and down on it.

But you're in it, you know? Yeah, exactly. You're in the spook. I think we have to let them in on our little surprise. Yeah, if you haven't already figured it out, can't believe this. Mariah Carey will be joining us this week. I say, oh I want to go work with such and such from across town. Yeah, from across town. My girl across town. Yeah, across town. I know a guy across town. I know a guy. Readers, publicists, Katie's, and finalists tune in to maybe the most

unforgettable episode of Lost Cultures this yet. There's one more question which I promised myself I would ask. Can you drop that grunge album? I'm so mad that I haven't done that yet. But you don't have to be mad because you're in control. It's locked away. I am, but who do I drop it with? So should we start a label?

Maybe. Wow. Listen to Lost Culture Eastus on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. On Thanksgiving Day 1999, a five-year-old boy floated alone in the ocean. He had lost his mother trying to reach Florida from Cuba. He looked like a little angel.

I mean, he looked so fresh. And his name, Elian Gonzalez, will make headlines everywhere. Elian Gonzalez. Elian, Elian. Elian, Elian. Elian. Elian. Elian Gonzalez.

At the heart of the story is a young boy and the question of who he belongs with. His father in Cuba. Mr. Gonzalez wanted to go home and he wanted to take his son with him. Or his relatives in Miami. Imagine that your mother died trying to get you to freedom. At the heart of it all is still this painful family separation. Something that as a Cuban, I know all too well. Listen to Chess Piece, the Elian Gonzalez story,

Hey, I'm Jay Shetty and I'm the host of On Purpose. My latest episode is with Jelly Roll. This episode is one of the most honest and raw interviews I've ever had. We go deep into Jelly Roll's life story from being in and out of prison from the age of 13 to being one of today's biggest artists. We talk about guilt, shame, body image and huge

life transformations. I was a desperate delusional dreamer and the desperate part got me in a lot of trouble. I encourage delusional dreamers. Be a delusional dreamer. Just don't be a desperate delusional dreamer. I just had such an anger. I was just so mad at life. Everything that wasn't right was everybody's fault but mine. I had such a victim mentality. I took zero accountability for anything in my life. I was the kid that if you asked what happened, I immediately started with everything but me. It took years for me to break that, like years of work. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

Presented by Elf Beauty, founding partner of iHeart Women's Sports. And we're back. And there was a moment in the 90s that it seems like neither of you remember, George, we're both too young and beautiful. We can't remember that. Right. And that makes sense. Moisturized, inter alain. Don't bother. Moodang practices.

So John F. Kennedy Jr. This is kind of a thing that has been, I feel like a bit memory old, but he was just, unless you watch Seinfeld, he was just so famous for being hot and like everybody just wanted to him so bad I remember him because my mom has huge crushes on like attractive Presidential like men she was obsessed with Bill Clinton. She was obsessed with JFK jr. I Like I remember my mom being like horny for him in the 19th. There's this profile of him back in the day that where they're like, it's about the launch of George and the person writing the profile is just so actively hostile toward everyone

who is not John. Like they're like, when he enters the room, like it John F. Kennedy Jr. in bright colors, and then a couple gray blurs behind him. The gray blurs are actual people who run the magazine. The writers just like, yeah, they suck comparatively. That's just how much you want to fuck this guy when you're in the same room with him. They don't love him like I love him. That's right. I'm looking at a picture love him like I love him. That's right.

I'm looking at a picture of him. I see it. I see it. There's one of them with his shirt off and he's just got like sort of a solid like tea of hair. Like he's a hairy man from his belly button up, like under his nips. It's just like sort of a pretty he could have been a movie star. I could see that. Yeah, and apparently wasn't after Do they do they let them have that kind of body hair anymore though? Cuz I feel like it's all Marvel smooth now and that that's one of the problems with America

If you ask my little man, that's why they killed him The Marvel Man Scape. That's right. So JFK Jr. passed away in the nineties. The, the magazine was just basically a match, a match of the two things he was like kind of known for, and it didn't really make sense other than that he had like this like sexy media image capital to spend. And so it was like, okay, I'll do a politics magazine

that's sexy. And so they would have like, Cindy Crawford dressed as George Washington on the cover. And this was the image of that is insane. Like I cannot get over because we we joke about like Halloween costumes, like sexy Abraham Lincoln. And this bitch was doing that in the 90s. like sexy Abraham Lincoln and this bitch was doing that in the 90s. It's pretty good. It does make me down bad for George Washington, which is unexpected. It is the hottest George Washington has ever been. It is the hottest George Washington has ever been. And yeah, that's, you know, our founding fathers could be in a pornography

and that is exciting to me. Our founding baddies. So the New York Times recently reported that the rights to the magazine were scooped up a few years ago by a little-known conservative lawyer named Thomas D. Foster. And now it has become an extreme right-wing publication with a QAnon devotee as editor-in-chief. And in fact, QAnon is kind of the only reason the magazine was able to come back because of the belief among QAnon that JFK Jr. is still alive. I mean, we all believe this, right?

I don't have to finish this. Yeah. Yeah, he's still alive, secretly working with Trump. He's going to come back and reveal the storm or whatever the fuck you and I believe and reveal all the baby tapes. No one with that amount of chest hair could actually physically die.

I don't believe that. Yeah, no. I don't. It's impossible. I am disappointed in this magazine because the cover is so boring. It just looks like sort of a discount version of Oprah's O. It's just like George and sort of this plain font and then like a giant Q. Like I feel like there's just

going to be a book recommendation for, you know, kind of like the new, the new cover is just a big George, just a big G or a big George with a giant Q on it. Yeah, exactly. They could have made Cindy Crawford dress as like sexy Hitler if they were going to go right wing. But why make it boring with this? It reminds me of those tweets about how graphic design has ruined the aesthetic of everything and like minimized everything and taken away its personality.

I'm like, this is so sterile of an image. Yeah, it looks like shit. Yeah. I want the maximalism of a Ben Garrison cartoon where everything is labeled. There's pectorals and butts everywhere. Yeah, I feel like that used to be how the right communicated, was just with the most convoluted political cartoons. Fortunately, it seems like the kids version is going for the maximalism though,

because there's the George Jr. ones that is just littered with various themes and things like, what are the Northern Lights, which I assume, like who is Thomas Jefferson? What did he accomplish? How to be grateful? What are the Northern Lights? I'm assuming the last one is about how Jews have created giant magnets that are to suck the coins

right out of your pockets and those cause the Northern Lights. Plus make your own rock candy. Right, make your own rock candies in there. The editor in chief is somebody who has suggested that old issues of George contain messages from JFK Jr. blowing the lid off corruption, both from the past and into the future.

He's also previously promoted the Adrenochrome Theory, which states that all the popular celebrities are killing children and drinking their Adrenochrome. But yeah, they- What is Adrenochrome? It's like a chemical, as far as I know, and this could be incorrect, I don't know. I never fact check my favorite cue to writers,

but it's like a chemical your body releases when it's about to die and then like, just like drink it straight out. Oh, is it like good for your skin? It says on Wikipedia, it's the oxidation of adrenaline and it was the subject of limited research from the 1950s to the 1970s as a potential cause of schizophrenia. While it has no medical application, there is a derivative that is a hemostatic medication. Okay.

So. It just changes your blood pressure. They also have lessons and teamwork from Daniel Boone, noted slave owner, Daniel Boone, or fashion advice from the apostle Paul. That's in George Jr. What would apostle Paul, like just robes or something? Sandals and like a rose, skid mark loincloth. All the way into middle parts, okay. Yeah, he did have great hair. If you look at some of the paintings from back then.

His bag that was attached to a stick was a Louis Vuitton, first of all. The zoomers did bully me into adopting a middle part again. I've tried it and it is fun. Yeah. The Zoomers did bully me into adopting a middle part again. I've tried it and it is fun. Yeah. I enjoy it. It's looking good, Katie, by the way. Thank you.

Thank you. Well done. Thank you. Good job, Zoomers. Your mission accomplished. Fixed one of us. Then over the weekend, we've got a BO report, box office report.

Things continue to still be not baffo for Joker, Folly Adieu. And it's like, Folly Adieu is French for Folly Adieu. It's going to be French for friend of your anus or something. Friend of your anus. I watched the trailer for it and I'm so fucking bored. I'm like, how did you make Lady Gaga boring? I don't understand how they managed to do this. I'm like, what is the point of watching? I don't understand from the trailer what the point of the movie is.

It's a musical, right? But what is the point? The director seems to think that he's inventing a musical as he's doing it. Because he was like, it's not a musical. It's a movie where the characters break into song when they have something emotional that they can't express otherwise. It's all about the songs they don't break into. Haven't heard of Bollywood at all, my guy. Come on.

Right. No, he absolutely has not. But I don't understand the plot cuz it's just like Them singing and then putting on makeup and walking down the steps. Okay, we get it. The Joker is gay We all understood that before we all understood this was musical theater. What is the point? He's like twisted actually when you think actually when you think about it. Oh, he's like so dark. Hang on. We're all a little bit twisted.

Now, hang on, hang on, hang on. Are you saying he's a little messed up? Because that- This guy might be a little bit messed up. Is he a little messed up? Because no, I'm a little interested in this movie. Do we live in a society? What? Is he a little bit of

a antisocial guy because I'm into that sort of thing. There's a way in which one could argue that we live in a society where one could say, anyways. You exist in the content. You exist in the content, all of which in which you are coconut and a society. Yeah. Remember, we're so charmed. That movie, Joker, so it's been out two weeks.

The first one made literally a billion dollars. They were expecting big things. It is now in fourth place after two weeks. It did really badly its first week. It was one of the lowest performing comic book movies of all time. Its second week, it fell harder. It is the worst decline in history for a comic book movie. So from a worst ever start to the worst decline ever in the history of comic book movie.

I just love that this makes me feel vindicated for everyone who's a fan of Andrew Tate somehow. I'm just like, somehow this made me win over them, this failing. Right. In your face, Tate fans. Although I think they didn't even go to see it because they're like, I know. Woman? What? Yeah.

Gross. They're very, yeah, it's like they want all the Joker with none of the boobas. That's right. But the whole Harley Quinn thing, I think, it's been come out of a lot of angles. There's the cartoon version of where it's supposed to be an update. There's the older cartoon version of her in the old animated series.

There's always this dynamic of she's in an abusive-ish relationship with the Joker. And then there's also like the movies, I guess, the one with Jared Leto. And, you know, like it's always about this sort of like, hey, like they're both kind of messed up, but it's sort of an abusive relationship or codependent or so on. Abusive relationship. The Tate fans are back in. They're like, now wait a minute, is he a little twisted? Is he a little abusive?

This guy's a little nuts. We got some red flags over here. Yeah, I just, I don't really know. I mean, I don't know. I kind of agree with you, Pallovey. It seems kind of boring to me. It's like, oh, he's like kind of crazy, but she's like into that.

It's like, okay. I don't know. I was a teen girl once. I saw a whole movie in the trailer already. Yeah. I was a teenager. I remember that. You're like, oh, wow. He's kind of veggie and moody. That makes him attractive.

But you can't get a whole movie out of that. I remember feeling bad about JFK Junior. I remember having those emotions. That's right. In case you want to blame it on Clowns, do not because the number one movie this weekend, I'm not sure I'm in the mood for that. I'm not sure I'm in the mood for that. I'm not sure I'm in the mood for that. I'm not sure I'm in the mood for that. I'm not sure I'm in the mood for that. I'm not sure I'm in the mood for that. I'm not sure I'm in the mood for that.

I'm not sure I'm in the mood for that. I'm not sure I'm in the mood for that. I'm not sure I'm in the mood for that. I'm not sure I'm in the mood for that. I'm not sure I'm in the mood for that. I'm not sure I'm in the mood for that. I'm not But I thought, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Clowns are funny though, Jack. They're funny and you have them at parties. They're sweet and fun.

I have a six. They are makeup puppies. Okay. Yeah. They wear big shoes, they make balloon animals. I don't understand how they could be scary. So I have a loose theory that like, you can tell how good the box office for a

movie is going to be based on how many people dress up as like that thing for Halloween. And like my six year old only knows clowns as horror movie, like scary things based on just like how many people come to our house for Halloween for trick or treating dressed as like the scariest fucking clown you've ever seen. So I think there's- There's not a lot of good clown representation

in these days. Right. It's like Patch Adams and people are like, fuck you. Yeah, we haven't had a good clown in a while. Even Ronald McDonald is just Grimace's friend at this point. Ronald McDonald is a participant in the US imperialistic cause. I mean, you're not wrong. And that's the scariest clown of all.

I think horror is having such a fun moment right now and I love it. I'm so happy that there's all these horror movies that are throughout the year too. I'm looking at terrifier three on google images it appears to be a clown Santa who is covered in a sort of red substance that is either menstruation or blood of another kind. He looks fun. He's just horny. He's just a freak. It's menstruation. Hey, you know what? Look, fellas, don't be squeamish. Exactly.

Ladies, fellas. This is our pivot to take over the Joe Rogan audience. Fellas, don't be squeamish about menstruation. Don't be squeamish about menstruation, especially if you're a scary Santa clown. Yeah. Your suit's already red, so get right in there. Because the movie is set at Christmas and features scenes of Art the Clown dressed as Santa Claus, a Christian group in Kansas City protested the Satanic Santa.

Which obviously, never a bad look for horror movies to the point that I have to assume like the makers of this movie were just like sending chain emails to people at this church being like, man, somebody should do something about this movie. I know I wouldn't start holding press events at these churches. Right? Has anyone ever done like an evil Jesus movie like Jesus, but he's an evil clown? I mean, we're actually going to cut that out of the episode so that we can go write that together.

Right? Yeah. Yeah. He throws his crown of thorns like a boomerang and stabs people's eyes out. It's always just like right off of that, you know? It's like all the exorcist movies and stuff like that. It has all the iconography, but it's much more subtle. No one's ever had the balls to do an evil Jesus.

Yeah. Jesus bad? Question mark, question mark, question mark. More at 11, yeah. Who would Jesus kill? Jesus is like so twisted and dark I could fix him. Oh my god. Totally.

He's alone. When he's in the desert, he is having thoughts. He's having doubts. I hope we get protested. I hope this episode gets protested. Uh, we should only be so lucky. Well, Katie Golden. Yes.

Such a pleasure as always having you on the Daily Zyka. Where can people find you follow you all that good stuff? Well, I do a little podcast called Creature Feature right here on this network. Yeah, I've had both of you on I believe, but it is a animal podcast about animals and how they are cool and good and sometimes weird. I just talked recently, well, no, wait, I've got actually a Halloween episode coming up because this comes out like tomorrow. So that one I just recorded, it's really fun.

We talk about bats, we talk about other spooky creatures. I really had a good time. So yeah, do check that out. I also do a podcast with one of the world's most incredibly talented golden retrievers, Alex Schmidt. And it is called Secretly Incredibly Fascinating. It is a really fun podcast for me to do because I basically don't do any of the work.

I sit there and let Alex do all the research and he convinces me every week that there is something that sounds pretty boring, kind of like, oh, Alex, I don't want to learn about mayonnaise, but then he makes me understand. It's interesting. It always is, every goddamn time. Amazing.

Is there a work of media that you've been enjoying? Absolutely. So I hope I didn't do this already, but there's a comic artist known as Mr. Joshua, who does the comic Pants, his handle on Twitter. I know I said don't go on Twitter, but this is one of the only things I go on Twitter anymore for,

is it's at Pants, and he does these incredible works of art. And my favorite one of his comics is it is a man sitting at his laptop typing into it saying, your email did not quote, find me well, I have diarrhea and then diarrhea is underlined in red because it's misspelled and it says, did you mean diarrhea? So it's very good. The art is amazing. There's a spooky one recently that this artist did

where I'm sure everyone loves to hear me just describe comics out loud to them. It's the best form of podcasting. I should do a whole podcast where it's just me like, remember that Gary Larson? And then Garfield says. There's a cow and he's holding an axe. Someone's going to send you a cease and desist.

You're not going to listen to it. But this is a spooky comic and it's a woman. That's the scariest part. It's a woman. All the the scariest part. It's a woman, ooh, all the Andro Tate guys logged off. But she's sort of on a hotline saying, Dracula costume warehouse, my name is Peg, how can I help you? And a middle-aged man in a Dracula costume says,

hey Peg, I can't get the teeth out. It's charming, it's wonderful. So yeah, I really do enjoy that. He's a great artist. Nice. That sounds wonderful. Thank you for sharing that. Pallavi Gunalan. Hello. What a pleasure having you, guest host.

I need to make this career work so I don't regret all of my decisions since 2019. And I co-produce a show at the Comedy Store called Facial Recognition Comedy that's in LA

and it features Manasa, Middle Eastern, North African, South Asian comedians. It's super fun and funny. and it features Manasa, Middle Eastern, North African, South Asian comedians. It's super fun and funny. It's gonna be 10.30 PM on Friday, October 18th at the Comedy Store. It's monthly, so if you can't make it this time, look out for it next time.

And yes, that is where you can find me. And is there work of media that you've been enjoying? Okay, since Katie is here, I follow this account on Twitter called Feeder of Cats. And she is this individual girl lady who is in the Bay Area who helps rescue cats. And then she created a cat rescue in honor of a cat of hers who had passed away.

And it's called friends of bearcatrescue.org. And the way she, I think she gained a following because she just posted really like dry and funny like captions on cats that she's taking care of. And she's like, oh, oh no, I'm trying to feed you, attack me, you know, like just like little silly comments here and there. And it's, I don't know, she's doing like really great things

and it seems to be very like her on the ground. So if you're in the bay, I see cats there all the time that needs to be rescued. And also if you just want to have fun, fun content cat content. She's a great she's a great Twitter, Twitter feed. Yeah, I'm following this one. Very good content. Sometimes sometimes sad, just sometimes sad, but often really wonderful, just her work in rescuing cats. Yeah, she'll be like, oh my God, it's the most terrifying thing and it's like a little kitty meowing.

One of my favorite cat things, like in terms of like kitten rescue is like, someone had a kitten named, I think, Cottage Cheese, and like they brought them to the doctor because it was like really kind of, the stomach looked really bloated and it's like, oh God, like that could be really bad in a kitten. There could be all these things causing the bloat.

The doctor was just like, your kitten's just fat. Yeah. Perfectly healthy, just fat. That's my favorite genre of like animal tweet is like parents who care so much and their animal is acting weird and it's like, yeah, your cat was mad you were on vacation and that's why. Right. $700 later.

Your dog is limping because she figured out that last time she limped, she got a bunch of treats and attention. A lot of attention. Yeah. Yeah. Or the cats or dogs that like roast each other by like imitating like there was this one dog that imitated its corgi Sibling by like crawling or like a cat that like winked its eye because its sibling had an eye issue And it was just like are you mocking them? What are you doing? Yeah, there's a lot of shade being thrown around these animals. Yeah

Yeah Tweet I've been enjoying great galaxy. G, ET tweeted, I never even considered Dr. Pepper could be a woman. Maybe I'm a bad person. Wow. We just talked yesterday, Polly, about the idea that we're well past that time when the riddle could be like, the entire plot twist of the riddle could be, what if a woman was a doctor and yet-

Dr. Pepper was operating on her son. How was she a woman? How was she a doctor? Yeah. That's how that riddle goes. I don't think I ever thought of Dr. Pepper being a woman either. I'm fucked up. Did you ever think about Dr. Pepper being a PhD in psychology?

No. That would be so much fun. Anyways, you can find me on Twitter at Jack underscore O'Brien. You can find us on Twitter at Daily Zeitgeist. We're at The Daily Zeitgeist on Instagram. We have a Facebook fan page and a website, dailyzeitgeist.com, where we post our episodes and our footnotes, where we link off to the information that we talked about in today's episode as well as a song that we think you might enjoy.

Super producer Justin and Connor, is there a song that you think people might enjoy? Yeah, I actually just discovered this artist the other day. I do not know how to categorize this song into a genre. It is absolutely wild. It's got jazz samples and live bass and glitchy off-the-grid drum patterns and some impressive drops, especially the second one. I love the use of vocal samples throughout. It really hypes me up. This is a song called Trying to Say Something by Zep Z-E-P and you can find that in the footnotes. Footnotes? I thought it was going to be YMCA. I know. This is the thousandth episode where Justin has resisted my note to open every song recommendation saying this just in.

Man, I'm sorry, Jack. I can't do it. My soul just can't take it. All right. Yeah. No, no. Fair. I didn't say you had to do it. I just cry every time you don't.

I don't think I've been to a job where someone hasn't made this joke. Yeah, yeah. Good. And that's why I'm funny and talented. Oh, Justin, like his name. Like his name is Justin, yeah. Ah, like his name. His name is Justin. So I put two words together. A slow burn. The Daily Psych guys, it's a thinker.
