Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Anyways, my name's Jack, that over there is Miles.
This is the episode where we tell you a couple of things
that are trending right now.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And the big news.
It's trending.
Hell yeah.
That's taken both sides of the political spectrum by storm. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And the big news. Hell, yeah. It's taken both sides of the political spectrum by storm.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Subway's new foot long Doritos nachos.
Now, when I hear that, I'm like, what the fuck are we talking about?
A foot long nachos?
And then I guess merely it's the container that it's in.
Yeah, can I get 14 inches of nachos please?
That's how I've always ordered nachos is by length.
President Trump, we have your foot long nachos here.
Oh wow.
How'd you do that?
Oh yeah, so basically what we do,
so the photos of this, we watched a review video.
At first I'm like, look, I'm not against nachos.
Okay, first of all, we are very pro nacho.
And by the way, I am pro.
I thought I made a brilliant discovery
when I started dipping Doritos in salsa.
I was like, Doritos, yes, great on their own,
can be the base for some sauces and nachos.
They work really well and that way
put you ever put salsa on a block of cream cheese yeah oh yeah you know
that's that's called those are my nachos it's called Super Bowl baby so the this
Doritos fucking foot it's just a box with loose chips in there and they're
putting stuff from the fucking like this box looks like children's like
individual you know lunchbox apple sauces like this. The box looks like children's like individual, uh, you know,
lunch box, apple sauces. Like that's what it looks like. Like the,
it would have four of those stacks to each other inside. Yeah. Yeah.
You buy a cardboard sleeve. Yeah, that's what it looks like,
but it's just loose sandwich ingredients thrown on top of chips.
I was, I said, you know what? I am going to ride for this.
You did?
I don't care.
You did, and you saw it.
I don't care.
And then I saw it and I said, there's one ingredient.
I said, there's one ingredient
that doesn't sit right with me, doesn't sit right.
So, you know, nachos have a lot of ingredients.
They're not defined by any one ingredient.
And these got the cheese.
They got jalapenos, which I'm on board with.
They also have just the sliced tomato from the sandwich.
Just half layers, just half moons of sliced tomato on top.
No, no, we don't do that.
Like, are you going to also put shredded lettuce on there?
Like, what the fuck is this?
I mean, and then also the onions are just like the loose
Slice slivers of onions. You can't do a deconstructed pico
You can't but a guy oh, no, that's not how this shit works. And I know that subway is in a bad way right now
Look, I'm doing my best to keep y'all open. I'm eating my tuners. Their head is in the right place
yeah, the you know, like
collabing with Doritos, the kings of fast food collaboration.
Yeah, exactly. Right.
Yeah. Good idea, Subway.
But this just five dollars.
That's the other thing.
It's five, five, five dollar different nachos.
Because it is it does look like they're just five Doritos in there Yeah, I think the way they could have gotten away with this if they said look if you buy a bag of Doritos or chips
One nacho fire for you. Yeah chips for like any sort. Yeah
Over if you want whatever the fuck if that's your fucking life if you want to ruin it this is just subway baby but yeah this isn't gonna this feels like a
big swing and a miss from subway it does it also feels like something that I
wouldn't mind to give it a try you know I just say hold the tomatoes I just
can't get past like I think that we love nachos especially when we go to
restaurants because we can't do it at home
There's just we just can't get it right at home the way you get a rest
This just feels like some home ass nachos. This feels like my mom said we got nachos at home, right?
And you're putting loose ass tomato slices
Some Doritos and microwaving it and being like there you go. Eat up dickhead
There you go piggy oink oinkhead. There you go, Piggy.
Oink, oink.
And you slap that up.
Fucking loser.
Do you want to just eat it with no hands out of the little paper trough
that we've given you here?
Or you want me to tie your hands behind your back?
Because a real piece of shit, real sick fuck like that, huh?
You sicko.
All right.
The narrative around Snow White.
Oh, my God. Continued. The narrative around Snow White has continued.
Disney is basically taking a page from the Democrats' playbook,
a page from every media, a page from America's playbook after the Black Lives Matter protests where they're like this, the left is the reason. It went too far.
The left is the reason that crime is going up.
It wasn't going up.
Is the left in charge of everything?
Yeah, the left's in charge, man.
Yeah, that's what they do.
But like I've gotten so much more interested in the Snow White movie release and like its
build up just over the course because it's one of those things where ambiently I was like oh it must suck because Rachel Zegler
because like you would see articles that were either one Snow White sucks the
movie fucking sucks or he sucks or Rachel Zegler like Rachel Zegler's a
piece of shit type article or number three a blending of the two like it
sucks because Rachel Zegler is a piece of shit.
And you're like, oh, wait, so what exactly is the star?
She's she was like discovered during her West Side Connection.
No, West Side Story.
Try out video.
Yeah, story. Yeah.
She did a good video.
Everybody was like, she's good. She starred in that. Everybody was like, she's good.
She starred in that.
Everybody's like, she's good.
And then she starred in Snow White and everyone's like, she's good.
But she also did do a boo boo.
She did say free Palestine.
But they're like, she's good, but she's Colombian.
Yeah, yeah.
Like sort of like an initial thing.
So this new, there's a new article out in Variety and there's no other way to look at this except
for a total fucking poorly written hit piece, you know what I mean, on Rachel Zegler to
lay the failures of Snow White at her feet basically and absolve everybody else of any
kind of wrongdoing. So they start
off the article by saying her support of innocent people being slaughtered in Palestine was
step one of her downfall, I guess. So they pointed to a tweet where she was thanking
fans for like going to an event to like promote the movie. And then like on this thread, she
added another one that said, and she's like, and always, you know, remember Free Palestine,
that got a ton of engagement because a lot of people agree
with that sentiment that yes, this is completely vile,
what has happened.
And just then she signed the movie's death warrant.
Right, exactly.
And then this article goes on about how the producer Mark Platt
flew to Rachel Zegler to try and convince her to delete that tweet.
And she's like, nah. I'm like, okay. I'm like, so far this variety article makes her sound pretty cool to me.
Sounds pretty upstanding. Like she's sort of, you know, has values.
So this article then goes on to speculate that her support for Palestinians manifested in death threats to Gal Gadot.
Gadot, whatever, however we're saying that,
waiting for Gadot.
And the article doesn't provide any context
in regards to how people may view Gal's politics
and how she's been the subject of repeated protests.
Like when she screened the IDF-produced documentary
bearing witness to the October 7th massacre,
like she personally was like hosting a screening of that.
Then she had a Hollywood Walk of Fame star ceremony.
It was interrupted by protestors again,
because she's very, very vocally saying like,
Israel is not doing anything wrong.
Y'all are tripping.
Everything's all good.
Everyone is Hamas that disagrees
when they basically sort of like what her stance is.
Not really a compelling argument
as to why people didn't see the film, but okay.
Right.
Yeah, but between the two, one of them
has the more unpopular opinion,
and that is the more famous one, Gal Gadot.
She has a very unopinion,
that's very unpopular with people like that.
Globally, I would say.
Yeah, globally, in the United States, even a lot of people
were like the election is really coming down to a lot of people
not thinking Joe Biden's doing a good job by fully backing Israel.
That was pretty much agreed on.
Like nobody thinks that what's happening is good.
Yeah. So, OK. Then the movie is happening is good. Yeah. So, okay.
Then the movie is supposedly not good.
I haven't seen it, but the reviews are like, it's kind of a piece of shit.
Many of the reviews do say like Rachel Ziegler is the lone bright spot.
I've seen that review in a lot of places.
So what's their diagnosis here, Miles?
It's just, it's absurd. So then they, then they said she posted, fuck Donald Trump,
like after the election. And they're like, and that was alienating audiences even further. And
I'm like, okay, is that all you got? And then they're like, then she's a real troublemaker
because she told people that she wasn't going to the Academy Awards when her debut film West Side Story was nominated.
This is from the variety piece.
Zegler had already strained nerves at both the studio and Steven Spielberg's Amblin partners
when she complained on social media that she wasn't invited to the 2022 Oscars as the star of best picture nominee West Side Story, a film distributed by Disney.
They're pointing to the fact that someone asked if like, oh, are you excited for the Oscars?
Are you gonna be there, whatever?
And she's just like, no, I'm gonna be watching from home.
No real context outside of that.
They're like, wait, you're not going?
And then we find out that one of these Disney executives
basically didn't allow her to go to the Oscars
because they wanted her on set for Snow White.
They wouldn't allow this young performer to go to the Oscars because they wanted her on set for Snow White. They wouldn't allow this young performer to go to the academy awards when their
debut film is nominated. Okay, cool. But yeah, this, this makes her look bad.
Again. So by the end of the article,
I'm just left with the impression that this was written by the Disney side of
things and they were just hell bent on scapegoating her for their own terrible
filmmaking.
And what a lot of the people have viewed as like negative aspects of the film
aren't anything to do with anything Rachel Ziegler was in charge of creatively or any.
They're like, yeah, her performance fine.
It's all the shit around. It's really not that great.
And I think the piece loses credibility for a number of reasons,
but leaving out the fact that so much anger was coming from right wing freaks
complaining about her inadequate whiteness is also a spectacular failure and feels intentional.
Oh, they don't mention that part of the controversy.
No, no.
And it feels intentional in order to simplify
like this post-mortem of Snow White too.
Rachel Zegler supports Palestine,
which caused death threats for Gal Gadot.
Then she said stuff about Trump and is also ungrateful.
So that's why the movie did poorly
rather than why the fuck
did anyone think this was a movie worth making?
And also for all the complaints like in this piece is like,
oh, she shouldn't be so vocal about her politics.
Yet Gal Gadot can do the same
and there is no criticism of that.
I'm really-
Well, those aren't politics.
She's just like being real, dude.
Oh, okay.
She's not like being idealistic and silly like Rachel Ziegler.
She's being realistic about how they need to kill all those kids. That's important.
Really fucking backwards.
It is a very consistent and effective form of propaganda against the West in the United States.
Sorry, propaganda against the left in the United States. Sorry. Propaganda against the left in the United States, where things just constantly
get rewritten, where the left is allowed to say what they think is going on.
Like with the Black Lives Matter protests and everyone agrees.
There are a lot of people.
A lot of people agree.
You got a point there.
You come with some consequence and rewrite the story of like
murders went up during the pandemic.
And that was actually somehow because people criticize the police.
Yeah. Some like and not because they froze all these like
non-police programs that were actually effective at like.
And also, like everybody just had too much free time because they were all like,
everybody was like out of school and there were no programs or any of the
things that keep people occupied. Yeah. Um,
no, it's definitely because, uh,
the police feelings were hurt and everyone was like, hell yeah,
the police are sad. We can go out and commit murders that seems realistic and do shoplifting, which actually didn't happen.
It's, you know, it's with the 2020 2024 election where it's, you know, they criticize Kamala
Harris for not for running a basically a right wing campaign, like the, uh, a campaign to the right of the
democratic party, uh, historically and they lose.
And then it somehow becomes that it was the group far left and it was the groups which
like, yeah, I don't even know what the fuck the groups means, but like the, yeah, it's
just always, they find a way to turn it around and it to turn around and they just agree on that.
They've just always agreed that that's whose fault it is.
Anytime something bad happens to this center left thing that has no identity, whatever
Disney version of politics is, it's just bullshit.
It sucks. It's not going to be good.
Like whatever they're doing is, is not going to work. Uh,
the democratic party, whatever they're doing, it's not,
it's just a fucking Venn diagram.
It's not even like a thing that actually exists.
Nobody actually has those beliefs because it's just beliefs you made up to try
and cram the Venn diagram into reality.
I'm one of these people, I believe in body autonomy, but not the kind of autonomy that
sort of prevents the state from brutalizing an immigrant.
Right.
That's, you know what I mean?
That, not that.
Yeah, not that.
That's kind of where I'm at.
Does that make sense?
Is, where are my people at?
Oh, there's a lot of us, but yeah.
It's just a very, it's a reflex.
And I think also more than anything,
when you have these institutions
that are all about maintaining its power and influence,
it can never be that someone outside of it
made an observation that was like true
or that they bear any responsibility
for the outcomes of the things that they are absolutely,
fully behind and responsible for.
Cause no one's being like, dude, like every,
it's just these oversimplifications
of why people didn't go.
It's not like people were protesting outside of the theater
because Rachel Zegler said, fuck Donald Trump.
Like, no, you also, you've preemptively pulled back
all the marketing shit and none of that is discussed
in the article.
So just fuck off this shit.
They're just blaming her and probably, yeah, it looks like
they have it out for her career now, but it's, it's wild.
Yeah. It really, it also like people should read
Alec Herrick and Sanis's Coppaganda book, the section
where the Harvard sociologists like, you know,
begrudgingly and with great
consternation, regret to inform you that the only way to lower crime is to double the police
force. And we hate that. We hate to report that because we're coming from the left and
it's like you're actually not, but they're coming from the default position.
Yeah. That's the status quo. Yeah. Yeah. The status quo. Exactly. Um,
but it is really sad that that producer had to leave his 38 year old son to go
mark. Yeah. His son, Jonah Platt, someone commented on Instagram. We're like,
dude, your dad's like doing some weirdo shit.
Kind of like violate her freedom of speech country to like tell somebody to
delete a comment?
He really just said, he left his family.
This is coming from a 38 year old man.
He's like, you really want to do this?
Yeah, my dad, the producer of an enormous piece of Disney IP with hundreds of
millions of dollars on the line, had to leave his family to fly across the
country to reprimand his 20 year old employee for
dragging her personal politics into the middle of promoting the movie for which
she signed a multi-million dollar contract. That's what the money's for!
Is essentially what it comes down to. He also calls like her immature for
saying free Palestine. Which again goes back to that is that's the thing that we see over and over again,
is anything that is to the left and like, you know,
what a lot of people actually believe, even though they don't necessarily identify
it as being to the left, it's always attacked as being childish and immature.
Now, like, it's not real.
Just say like to to mischaracterize things as being the left or
the right when you're saying, I'm opposed to innocence being needlessly murdered.
What are you, on the fucking left?
What are you, a child?
Yeah.
Huh?
Yeah.
Like, nice attack, but what I'm talking about is an appeal to our own fucking humanity and sense
of decency. So yeah, I'm a decent person.
Yeah.
Narcissism is not something to be coddled or encouraged, says the guy who's like, don't
make my daddy leave his family.
I'm a 38 year old.
I'm a 38 year old and my brother Ben has all the talent.
I'm just Jonah.
Yeah.
This is Ben Platt's less talented brother.
Unremarkable.
Yeah.
All right. Let's take a quick break and we'll be back.
Have you ever wondered if your pet is lying to you? Why is my cat not here? And I go in and
she's eating my lunch. Or if hypnotism is real? You will use this suggestion in order to enhance
your cognitive control. What's inside a black hole?
Black holes could be a consequence of the way that we understand the universe.

about animals, space, our brains, and our bodies.
Questions like, can you survive being cryogenically frozen?
This is experimental. This means never work for you.
What's a quantum computer?
It's not just a faster computer. It performs in a fundamentally different way.
Do you really have to wait 30 minutes after eating before you can go swimming?
It's not really a safety issue. It's more of a comfort issue.

In 2020, a group of young women in a tidy suburb of New York City
found themselves in an AI-fueled nightmare.
Someone was posting photos.
It was just me naked.
Well, not me, but me with someone else's body parts on my body parts that looked exactly like my own.
I wanted to throw up. I wanted to scream.
It happened in Levittown, New York.
But reporting the series took us through the darkest corners of the internet
and to the front lines of a global battle against deep fake pornography.
This should be illegal, but what is this?
This is a story about a technology
that's moving faster than the law
and about vigilantes trying to stem the tide.
I'm Margie Murphy.
And I'm Olivia Carville.

How goes lower?
From Blumhouse TV, iHeart Podcasts, and Ember 20 comes an all new fictional comedy podcast series.
Join the flighty Damien Hirst
as he unravels the mystery of his vanished boyfriend.
And Santi was gone.
I've been spending all my time looking for answers
about what happened to Santi.
And what's the way to find a missing person?
Sleep with everyone he knew, obviously.
Hmm, pillow talk.
The most unwelcome window into the human psyche.
Follow our out of his element hero
as he engages in a series of ill-conceived,
investigative hookups.
Mama always used to say,
God gave me gumption in place of a gag reflex.
And as I was about to learn,
no amount of showering can wash your hands
of a bad hookup.
Now, take a big whiff, my bruh. ["The Big Bang. Listen to the hookup on the iHeart Radio
app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you listen to your favorite shows. Hey kids
it's me Kevin Smith and it's me Harley Quinn Smith. That's my daughter man who
my wife has always said is just a beardless d***less version of me and
that's the name of our podcast, Beardless D***less Me. I'm the old one. I'm the young one. And every week we try to make each
other laugh really hard. Sounds innocent, doesn't it? A lot of cussing, a lot of bad language. It's
for adults only. Or listen to it with your kid. Could be a family show. We're not quite sure.
We're still figuring it out. It's a work in progress. Listen to Beardless D***less Me on
the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever. You get your podcast.
It's me on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
And we're back.
So is he.
A lot of quarts are asking the question.
Sorry, folks. How could it dump some terrible some terrible fucking news on us on ourselves a little bit a little bit
I think of it as like a one of those fun ice wall ice. Yes, I challenge. Yeah ice bucket challenges
Yeah, like fuckery back challenge. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, and who do you challenge to tell this news to next?
So, you know we heard during the run run up to the election that he was saying, you won't have to vote anymore.
Vote in this one, you won't have to vote anymore, folks.
And we wondered, what was he talking about?
What, Danny, what does it mean?
Right.
What's a woman?
So it means he just signed a, quote,
far-reaching executive order that Eliza Swearenbecker, senior counsel
in the Brennan Center for Justices voting rights and elections program described as
quote, an astonishing and unprecedented voter suppression effort.
Yeah, that's from Mother Jones.
It would prevent millions of Americans from registering to vote.
The centerpiece of the order is a requirement
the voters show proof of citizenship
when registering to vote in federal elections.
This is again, but this is,
the bigger thing is that, right?
Our elections are not,
that's not from the fucking executive
to determine how elections are executed.
Yeah, it's not a federal thing either.
Those are up to the states.
The shit about this is,
this is giving inspiration for backward states
to then run this playbook on their own people.
Right.
And like, even like when you just,
like the sort of these four things that Mother,
in this Mother Jones article that they're pointing out,
and I think many experts are also pointing out
to these sort of four things too.
It's really, it's fucking slippery.
Like the first one's preventing people from registering to vote because they have to provide sort of four things too. It's really, it's fucking slippery. Like the first one's preventing people
from registering to vote
because they have to provide proof of citizenship.
A lot of people don't have that.
And I think the default way would be to bring your passport.
But then even when you look at the statistics,
more passport holders reside in blue states
than red states.
Right. Okay.
I guess you just disenfranchise your own voters
and some level.
I mean, I guess it's purely also to,
this is probably a setup move to be able to cast
dispersions on election results because they're like,
well, we tried, we tried to button this up
and the state's refused.
Trying to change deadlines for voting by mail,
like letting Elon fuck in the Doge people,
like use, get into all kinds of personal information
to try and track voter registration
fraud.
It's not a fucking thing at all.
They tried to do this in the first administration and remember they couldn't find anything.
And they fucking just slithered back into silence into their dark corner because there
was nothing there.
Overall, this is just kind of giving blanket power to Trump. Let's just let Elon handle it though, you know? Yeah. What happened with my
thumbs, Elon? How'd I put that guy in the chat, dude? I don't even know. But yeah, this is a very
another just huge, huge attempt to upend the little few norms we have left in the country.
So we'll see how this plays out,
but like just cause on its face,
it's like so unconstitutional,
but that's everything here nowadays.
So.
I'm sure the courts got it.
This does feel like the sort of thing that, you know,
the courts are pushing back on some of his executive orders.
This might be a one for us, one for them type thing.
Yeah.
Well, they just did the one where they said,
Hey, the ghost gun thing that Biden did,
all right, yeah, we're gonna keep that in place
with just Alito and Thomas being the dissenters.
But holy shit, man, this is,
they're trying fucking everything.
And the other part of it too is,
there are other versions of bills like this
that are like, your name must match your birth certificate
or you will not be able to vote. And a lot of people point to people who get married and change their
last names. Then what? Right. Yeah. That's not gonna match your birth certificate. And
guess what happens? And guess what the majority of people who end up changing their last names
or things like this is fucking yeah, they're trying it all. But yeah, I think the dark
heart of this bill or this executive order is the inspiration
it can give to the states that do have, you know, some ability to try and enact this kind
of shit as unconstitutional as it may be.
Well, on a happy note, people are still out here grinding. You know what I mean? So the
DMV.
Still grinding, man. Hell yeah.
It can be tough to deal with. You gotta go there, wait all day.
Sometimes you don't even get an appointment.
