Are your kids still competitive with the Easter egg finding? There were cross-bodied shots being thrown yesterday. Just over a fucking plastic egg. It was so funny because at three, my kid doesn't give a phone. He's just like, I found one. Yeah. And then I'm like, and then he'll just put it back down. I'm like, no, no, no, you collect him.

He's like, oh, okay, started collecting him. The other kid who's like about like eight months older than him was flying through the yard trying to catch him. And but my kid, he still found a ton. And then when it came to sit down, he like opening a bunch of jelly beans filled out. And he was like, ugh. Which, by the way, the correct response. Yeah, he's like, you should not be putting shit loose in there.

This is loose. But then he, but then like the things that were like a toy, he was like, oh yeah. You know, like the little sticky rubber hand we used to just fucking. Yeah. That like on a long ass thing, he was fucking loving that. The candy, he's like, nah, dude. these M&Ms are like, I don't even know. I've never seen anything so soft before.

They're like pre. Oh, yeah. There's, here you go, I softened it up for you. Yeah, yeah. When you put the candy shell in your mouth, try and get it like, because then I can get all the candy shop and now it's just a piece of chocolate.

Now it's just piece of chocolate. Yeah, except. So, so much worse, by the way. I always did that growing up, but it's like, no, these are designed to be crunched through. You got to crunch those motherfuck. I do that with Cadbury milk eggs. the like the shell hard shell

well they got a lot of shell to get through they got shell to spare that's like eating crab you got the crackers out you got the plier the crab pliers up I gotta I gotta loosen them up with my

that's why I soak them a little bit in the cheeks like a fucking oh yeah this one's got a lot of meat in there that's disgusting yeah no I've definitely made the mistake of putting loose jelly beans and loose. First of all,

we got a fat squirrel that I think I've told you about. He has absconded. Yeah, we went out yesterday because our shit is wrapped, but the small Reese's peanut butter cups are kind of, you know, porous.

You can smell what's in there. Oh, because they're wrapped in foil. Yeah, yeah. They're wrapped in foil. And one of those was just up in a tree, just in smithereens. It's just because my big fat squirrel

they're like ah ah don't bite the foil did not appear to give a fuck it was we had to shoe him away because he was coming back for more

that's who threw the cross body block is the squirrel took my took my nine year old out open ice hip check but yeah I went to

early on I went to an egg hunt at the Rose Bowl with my eldest when I think he was like three and he was not not of he was not there yet in terms of coordination to be in a public athletic competition is essentially

what it was to be finding a literal zombie horde it was it was like a locust horde had just come through there was nothing left by the time he got out there yeah i i remember the it became less fun for me I think when I was like eight and I just smoked my little cousin. Yeah. I fucking, he found one egg. Yeah. I fucking came through.

I went, da, da, that, fucking found every second. I didn't want him to have shit. Yeah. And then I remember then my grandfather really,

he's like, bro, he's a, he's a baby, man. He's like, what are you proving? And he said it to me in this way that really,

kind of, I had this level of someone. I was like, damn, this is pathetic as fuck. And he's like, if it's about the candy, he's like,

you know I got the bag where I put all the, like, all the shit that's in the eggs. There's just a giant bag of that shit. So if it's about the candy, come, come with me and we can just eat that. And Miles is like, nah, I can to win. I was seething, bro. I was like, I can't go fucking win. Fuck you think you're talking to, grandpa. Let me bang, bro.

Fuck them kids. Let me bang, bro. Do you remember that? I know that's from the ultimate fighter. It's where this guy has a fucking meltdown, like, because he's like, he gets in an altercation with one of the other, like, ultimate fighters in the house. And he's like, you want to. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I remember that.

I remember that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And everyone's like, bro, relax, dude. And then he starts crying. And he's like, let me bang, bro. Stop, stop, stop. Stop, stop. Stop, stop.

Stop, stop. What up, Doug? And you smile. And he's crying. Let me bang, man. want to do that man. Let me get you. Oh.

I do. I do. I do. I do let you bang. But in an octagon. He was just, he wanted to solve this. He wanted to fight someone.

Yeah, he wanted to just, and it was just like, it wasn't a big deal. And I was like, bro, miss me with this shit. What are you talking about?

It's like, did you fucking do something, bro? The fucking do so you pussy. And the guy's like, what? Nah. And he's like,

come on then. And then it just, it just, So let me bang me. It meant let me fight this guy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think that might have been my first, like, experience with a roid rage. Yeah.

Or just like, you know, that little kid rage when you're so angry, you just start crying. Yeah. You know what it is. It's like four-year-old anger. It's probably anabolic steroids and just, you know, stunted development. Let me bang. I do let you bang again, man. Let me bang again.

I let you bang again. Oh, they're going to hug. Hug it out, guys. Hug it out, fellas. Oh, nice punch it himself. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. God damn, man. That is brutal.

Yeah. Well, see, and that's why you can look. Luckily for guys like that. That's cool that your grandfather was taking footage of you at the Easter egg pump. Let me pay. Oh, me, me, me. And my grandpa, I do. I do, I do.

I do let you buy. Do let you bang. Bro. It's like, you want to find a bunch of. plastic fucking eggs before a four-year-old? Who? You're a four-year-old? That I can, bro.

I'm Lori Siegel, and I'm mostly human. I go beyond the headlines with the people building our future. This week, an interview with one of the most influential figures in Silicon Valley, OpenAI CEO, Sam Alman. I think society is going to decide that creators of AI products bear a tremendous amount of responsibility to products we put out in the world. From power to parenthood. Kids, teenagers, I think they won't need a lot of guardrails around AI. This is such a powerful and such a new thing. From addiction to acceleration.

The world we live in is a competitive world, and I don't think that's going to stop, even if you did a lot of redistribution. We have a deep desire to excel and be competitive and gain status and be useful to others. And it's a multiplayer game. What does the man who has extraordinary influence over our lives have to say about the weight of that responsibility? Find out I'm mostly human. My highest order bit is to not destroy the world with AI. Listen to Mostly Human on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to your favorite shows. Why hasn't a woman formerly participated in a Formula One race weekend in over a decade?

Think about how many skills they have to develop at such a young age. What can we learn from all of the new F1 romance novels suddenly popping up every year? He still smelled of podium champagne and expensive friction. And how did a 2020-3rd? event called Wag Ageddon, Change the Paddock Forever. That day is just seared into my memory. I'm culture writer and F1 expert Lily Herman, and these are just a few of the questions I'm tackling on no grip, a Formula One culture podcast that dives into the under-explored

pockets of the sport. In each episode, a different guests and I will go deeper into the wacky mishaps, scandals, and sagas, both on the track and far away from it that have made F1 a delightful, decadent dumpster fire for more than 75 years. Listen to No Grip on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. A silver 40-caliber handgun was recovered at the scene. From IHeart podcasts and Best Case Studios. This is Rorschach, murder at City Hall. How could this have happened in City Hall?

Somebody tell me that. July 2003, Councilman James E. Davis arrives at New York City Hall with a guest. Both men are carrying concealed weapons. And in less than 30 minutes, both of them will be dead. Now, everybody in the chambers duct. A shocking public murder. I scream, get down, get down. Those are shots.

Those are shots, get down. A charismatic politician. You know, he just bent the rules all the time. I still have a weapon, and I could shoot you. And an outsider was a secret. He alleged he was a victim of flat down. That may or may not have been political. That may have been about sex.

My latest episode is with Noah Kahn, the singer-songwriter behind the multi-platinum global hit Stick Season, and one of the biggest voices in music today. Noah opens up about the pressure that followed his rapid success, his struggles with mental health and body image, and the fear of starting again after such a defining moment in his career. It's easy to look at somebody and be like, your life must be so sick. Man, you have no clue. Talking about the mental illness stuff, it used to be this thing that I was ashamed of. I'm just now trying to unwind this idea that I have to be unhealthy physically or in pain in some emotional way in my life to create good music.

If someone says that I did a good job, I'm like, yeah, I'm good. Someone says that I suck. I'm like, I suck. Getting to talk about this is not common for me. Right now I need it more than ever. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Chetty on the IHartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hello, the internet, and welcome to this week trend edition of Dern Daily Nightgeist. This is a production of IHart Radio.

This is the episode where we tell you what was trending over the weekend. What's trending on this Monday morning? My name's Jack O'Brien. I'm back, baby. Back, O'Brien. And I'm thrilled to be joined, as always, by my co-host, Mr. Miles Gray. Hey, it's Black Denise O'Brien. There it is.

Never left you. Never left. How to go? How's everything? Oh, cool, dude. Don't check the cabinets. Nothing broken. Nothing's missing.

I had to strip the bed because some freak peed on it. Oh. Someone I think broke into your house and then peed on your bed while I was fucking crazy, man. You're kind of fucking weirdos living in your neighborhood. But, dude. Anyway, so yeah, I'll probably just get you a new mattress. It's fully, fully fucks. Oh, my God. That's too real for me, unfortunately, Miles. Well, it's great to be back. I haven't paid any attention to the news, but I'm hoping everything has been solved in my absence. If not, I will hold you personally accountable.

All right. Before we get into the news, we do like to let the listeners get to know us a little bit better by telling them some things that we think are underrated and overrated. So you want to kick us off with some of the you think's underrated? Underrated, yes. First up, actually, no, that's only one. For that two, one underrated. It's underrated.

Okay, this is a very specific thing that I do, is using, drama from your teen years from your childhood as a catalyst to reconnect with a bunch of old friends. Like I'll do this thing where I will remember. Miles, I have the exact same underwritten. No, I'm just joking. That's very specific. I do this a lot with my friends because I'm, there's like, you know, within your friend

group, there's probably like two to three people with like the just memory that's like obscenely sharp still and like the details from childhood can be like recalled very quickly. I'm one of those people. My homie Dylan is also like that too. But there was one. So sometimes I will just put a collection of people together that I went to high school with on the same group thread. I'm like, I think if I consult these four people and I just elegantly hit them all at once with the question, I can get an answer. And I'll do that a lot.

And it's funny too because sometimes you're like, oh, shit, what's up? Like they'll start talking to other people like, oh, how you've been? What the fuck? It's been a minute. Oh my God. You got three kids now. Oh, you live here. But all that started with me just asking,

do you remember senior year during our yearbook voting for superlatives? One of the kids on your book fucking cheated to try and get best eyes. And they had no business being having best eyes. Best eyes? Like best looking eyes? Like, you know, like, yeah. Astronaut eyes. It was usually like, who has the most.

No, I was like, who's got the like the most colorful. Yeah, most pretty eyes. There was a dude named Justin Gray. who was a biracial black kid who had, he hands down had the best eyes for the boys. Like he had like Eric Serman, you know, green eyed bandit can't stand it. Wow.

And people were like mesmerized. But then the lady who tried to win had the most normal. And this isn't a shot at people with brown eyes because I got them too. But it wasn't doing shit. Just brown eyes. Just eyes. You know what I mean? Just fucking eyes.

This brown eyes. And that's when it was, and people were like, what the fuck? Wait, how's this person? And then some work was done. And I'm trying to get to the bottom of it as if they were manipulating votes to get there or if they were throwing away other people. It was really specific and it was huge drama that like honestly for the last two months kind of ruined this girl's like social life in high school. Because they're like, how dare you think you have the like, why would you even cheat? Like even if you, like, you thought this was going to work?

How dare you? Wow. Can't just that that's one that's so specific like you could probably get away with most likely to succeed and people would be like yeah I could see you know you can like squint a little bit but best eyes is like pretty definitive as like tallest yeah exactly exactly you're 5-8 you're not you're not winning tall even when you're juxtaposing that with Justin gray yeah beautiful eyes beautiful eyes six foot seven eyes you know like this dude is not losing best eyes like that's everybody has the same answer. It's like nobody was coming from my class clown title. Like that was undeniable. And I put work in from freshman year for that. It debased myself in numerous rallies to get the title.

Did not enjoy it at all. I fucking wore a loincloth acting like Tommy Davidson and Ace Ventura 2. Wow. For the white gays. That's for the white G-A-Z-Z-E. Yes, yes, of course. So you bring this group together, they start being like, oh, hey, how's it going?

How hard do you stick to the mission of getting to the bottom of? Well, first, it's usually, it's usually them answering directly. Like, oh, I honestly, that happened. It's always a mix of that happened. They're like, damn, you always remember the most random shit from back then. What's wrong with you? And then it'll turn into, oh, I think I remember. Yeah, yeah, I think maybe what you're saying is right.

Nobody had a fucking answer. I'm about to go on Instagram to hit up the valedictorian in my class because I don't give a fuck. I'm trying to get an answer to this. Because this one kid also has a fucking insane memory. Like this kid, like photographic memory, he knew every single kid's address and their parents' name from the directory. And he would freak kids out. I remember freshman year because he'd be like, oh, Miles, you're a mom's name and you live here in North Hollywood. And people are like, bro, what the fuck?

Yeah. It's not a cool way to introduce yourself. Right. You know, he's a doctor now. Oh, I remember you. Yeah, he a doctor now, though. Yeah. Sounds like a fucking creep to me, all right?

Dermatologist, though, so I could just send a random snap. That's like next level, doctor. What's up with this? The highest calling of, or it's the doctor who does the best on tests, I guess, is what a dermatologist? Yeah, yeah, it's the best job you can get. Oh, that makes perfect. Yeah, this guy was a fucking just like, yeah, okay, perfect. Complete loser.

Jack, what's something you think is underrated? Oh, my. I'm so glad you asked. I'm about to be the equivalent of the person who studies abroad and comes back and is like, you simply must. You might be familiar with this trope. New York City, man. New York City.

Get a rope. New York City. The fact that New York City isn't a complete disaster. That with some like with some car horns. There it is. Okay. Tell me about New York City, Jack. Miles.

The big city of dreams, but everything. in New York may not always be as it seems. No, I just, you're shocked. I just think it's like, one thing that I kept hearing from people is that like their parents are worried

about them living in New York City and like that there's like a lot of people whose parents have like gotten this message that New York is like dangerous and like a cesspool and like things are bad. And I mean, we hear that about cities constantly.

Yeah. And I think it's because I think there's such a strong counter propaganda push against New York. Because if you go there, you can't help but just be like, God damn. This place is a fucking miracle. The fact that it doesn't collapse on itself. The fact that it's like that many people doing that many different things, that many industries, you know, just tangled together. it's loud, it's messy, it is like a fucking mess and it's, it's great. It's just everything kind of works itself out.

And like it's, it really is a testament to like collectivism, which is why I think there is so much pushback from people on New York. Like so much pushback from people who don't fuck with cities or collectivism or, you know, they just want it to be like individualism. And so they just create this version of New York in their mind that's like scary and fucked up. Well, I mean, I guess for a certain kind of person with a certain kind of regressive worldview, walking in such a global city where people are just shoulder to shoulder with people who are completely all ends of the spectrum, like next to each other. I guess that would be frightening.

But I wonder if like for older people, they're just like, they're just thinking it's like 1970s time square or some shit. Right. Oh, God. definitely seen it's, but even then, like, it doesn't. They light some shit on fire, but it still, like, remains like that the 70s. Like at the time that people like point to as like New York's nadir, uh, they're inventing hip hop and like creating so much like great art and like the next 50 years of popular culture. It just feels like a daily magic trick that, um, you know, it is like I read, uh, I talked

about E.B. White, the author of Charlotte's Webb, and there's a good essay by him that, like, is called Here is New York. That's, you know, written in the 40s or 50s or something, but, you know, it's all about this. He said, it is a miracle that New York works at all. The whole thing is impossible. Every time the residents brush their teeth, millions of gallons of water must be drawn from the Catskills and the hills of Westchester. You know, it just is a really good essay, but it like kind of makes this point that like New York doesn't like it's so complicated it's such a wild experiment I mean there there are obviously other cities but New York has just so much shit going on and it's it's so fun they they fix the G train miles since I was there last the fucking

g is like Roosevelt Island no I was just going around Brooklyn but the the G like has the open cars in between. I talked about that, like, in how impressed I was by that in Seoul, Korea, that like all, it's like one long train and you can see from one end of the train to the other so that you're never like alone in a car. Like they got that on the G now, which historically the worst line like when I lived there. It was pretty fucked up. And now the G is just beautiful. Love an open gangway train. Open gangway. That's what it is. And then also I think like it's wild because there's still like there is conservative politics in New York like quite a bit of conservative politics like they voted for a Republican mayor for many years in a row Giuliani and whatever is named Bloomberg. We had to ride a taxi and the taxi TVs now have fucking like newsmax in them. They're like doing like newsmax stories about trans athletes and like Dr. Drew's.

selling Ivermectin and shit. That's what was going on in the New York City taxes. It's just like, I feel like there's like a divide between the people who ride the taxis and don't. The people who ride the taxis are like, this is, I mean, I don't know. I don't know who took over the taxi TVs, but that's. Oh, I'm sure, you know, it's like everything. It's like three oligarchs. So they're like, oh, yeah, me, I got, I have access.

I can put anything I want to every taxi. Yeah. But, hey, New York. I ran into my cousin on the street. No, you didn't. This was a movie? I know. She was coming from yoga in Fort Green.

We ran into her. I was with my kids. She's like, oh, your son plays chess. He should go to Washington Square Park. We were like, oh,

that's a good idea. Just like did that. Got his ass whooped by a lovely man who learned how to play chess in prison and got really good lessons from us. Have you shown him that movie fresh? Not. We haven't done fresh.

Sam Jackson. He's not interested in the chest. Like he hasn't watched being Bobby Fisher or whatever, finding Bobby Fisher, whatever the fuck. But that one's wild because, you know, it's like, he's like, bro, this is a different world, kid. Isn't that like rated R? I forget.

Yeah, yeah. Fresh is like action movie. Yeah. Yeah, he's nine. So we're still working our way up to it. So he can learn about an alcoholic speed chess master by the name of Sam, played by Sam Jackson, you know? There we go.

Yeah. We haven't gone to that one yet. But maybe we will. Maybe we will now, but... I think it's time, son, you watch 1994's Fresh. It's just cool to see the city through the eyes of your kid, too, because, you know, just the buildings and the, you know, all the shit has gone on.

Because all their trash is, like, compacted underground because they can't get it off the island. So, like, are using actual technology that Walt Disney created for Disneyland to move the trash? So they just compact it down and then it's, like, underground, like conveyor belts, take the trash out? And then I think it's, like, incinerated or some, anyway, I was, I went on a YouTube deep guy for some reason on Roosevelt Island last week. I'm just saying there, people should check this place out. New York City.

Used to be New Amsterdam. You might, you might remember it as New Amsterdam, but it's now called New York City and there's a lot of cool shit happening there. What is, Miles, something you think is overrated? Overrated, first of all, I just got to say this, then this is something I've said some version of before. Overrated is the potential backlash, uh, Democratic, lawmakers think they'll face. I mean, not that any, they fear the backlash. They won't make sweeping changes because ideologically they're unable to. But for those politicians that think sweeping changes are impossible because you're not sure about the backlash, just look at what Donald Trump is doing and the lack of pushback fucking anywhere. And this guy's actively destroying the global economy. So for people

like, I don't know, should we push for universal health care? People might be up in arms. Well, all that shit pales in comparison to what is happening now and I think people really need to remember that for everything. They're like, oh, I don't know. Should we codify protections for trans people or abortions or things like that?

I'm so scared. Look at what this motherfuckerger's doing. Because guess what? Like I said last time. You're not going to get 8 million people in the street over that shit because they don't want it. I'll tell you that.

You got 8 million people in the street right now because of all the fuck shit that's happening. So first of all, stopped, I don't want to hear some shit about unpopular. No, it's just unpopular with the people. The donor class. Yeah. And I think people should know that.

But my real overrated is the book My World by Margaret Wise Brown, author of the smash hit Good Night Moon. Okay. Now, my world sounds like it's going to be a biography. Well, see, there's a trilogy of books. This is actually considered a trilogy, the runaway bunny trilogy, that's starts with runaway bunny, good night moon,

and then my world is the final piece. I think most people have... Oh, there's a prequel to Good Night Moon? Yeah, yeah, the Runaway Bunny. Yeah, yeah. It's not as popular, but like they started bundling all three books. My world came out two years after Good Night Moon.

The smash hit. Takes a while to write these things, man. I know, right? Good night, moon. Good night, cow jumping over the moon. That shit goes, by the way. I do love Good Night Moon. I think it's a great book.

Everyone does. You know, it's fantastic. It's so simple. It's weird work of, like, creepy poetry that, like, works on the child mine. My world also does that shit, but it's like, my boy is a toy bear. Like, the rhyming, rhyme scheme's all off. Like, it's all about, like, my dad's, my, my, my, my, my, my, my soap, daddy's soap, my soap, I hope. And it's just like all this, I don't fuck with the pros.

Mm. Okay. I don't like it. A lot of... It's rhymy? Good Night Moon isn't that rhyme. I mean, I guess there's like a couple moments of rhyme. Yeah.

Good night, go home. You know, good night, good night, you know, good night to the old lady whispering. Whispers. There's always, there's rhymes in there. Yeah. But the thing, so I started reading up, I'm like, what the fuck is up with this book?

Like, I'm trying to understand. I'm like, I can't, I'm like, I want to know why people think it's good. Some people are like, it's talking about the evolution of like, and Good Night Moon and Simpler to my world. are like more sort of sentences and the bunny is sort of figuring out their world. I did find one scathing review that I do want to read about my world.

Skating review of children's books. Hillary Williamson wrote that although, quote, the author's poetic style and the illustrator's familiar scenes convey the same charm and subtle comfort as the original. My world lacked the focus of Goodnight Moon. Yeah. That was the most scathing thing I could read. And everything else was like,

it's fantastic. Then I found there's a piece like a whole analysis by Claudia Pearson have a carrot. Edipole theory and symbolism in Margaret Wise Brown's runaway bunny trilogy. And it's a full on thing about how Margaret

Wise Brown was like really into Freud and was like injecting a lot of like Freudian themes into these books. I mean just the fact that you just said injecting well, it was very phallic, very. Ediprotein. injecting.

But it was just like, And I started reading it and it's like kind of wacky. I'm like, okay, because like a lot of it is talking about at the time she was really interested in it. But like why no one is talking about it was beyond this sort of academics understanding. All that to say is zoom out. My world is fucking terrible compared to Goodnight Moon. I don't care if it's like an evolution. Just as a standalone thing, I'm like, what the fuck are you talking about, bro?

I hate this shit. My kid loves it though. So we all really? Yeah, yeah, yeah. We always read that one and then end it with Good Night Moon. And then I'm like, this is what I'm talking about. This is the shit. Yeah, there's some, like, lesser classics of, like, in every art form where, like, you watch it and you're like, oh, this makes me not like the thing that I like because you see the seams and you see that they just got lucky on that other thing.

You know, all the stuff that seemed really intentional and, like, restrained about the language and Good Night Moon. And then, yeah, like, there's some Dr. Seuss books. that, not even the wildly racist ones, but like the just ones where it's just like, all right, this guy, this guy definitely phoned it in on some days at work. The other thing about my world I found out is that it was published in 1949, but in the 70s, it was by the 70s, it was totally out of print because there's like a moment that was, I guess, considered what people had said potentially risque because it was like, there are three rabbits and they're all in the bathroom together.

like the like one parent is like brushing their teeth one's in the bathtub and they're like oh and then it didn't come back into publication until 2001 i'm like what the fuck is going on with this thing anyway margaret wise brown i do remember like a late night google uh after like you know reading goodnight moon and being like there's something like haunting and weird about that who is the person who came up with this who is margaret wise brown finding out that she like died at 42 from an aneurism or something something some weird thing where like she had been feeling sick for a week and then was like, all right, I'm feeling better. And someone was like, oh, you're feeling better. And she's like, I'm feeling so good. I'm like going to do a split and like did a split. And like that shifted the blood clot. And it like went to her brain and killed her.

Oh my God. Crazy shit. Jesus Christ. Yeah. Anyways. I don't mean to kick dirt on your name, Margaret. But I felt like that was maybe a sophomore gym. Do better.

Do better. My overrated is just alpha male reading comprehension. I just was reading this article about the alpha male movement and these camps that you can go to or you can go to with your kids. There's one really embarrassing one where it's like all these kids and their dads and the kids just keep feeling like, yeah, I'm kind of here for my dad. He's like really wants me to be an alpha. Like they like sit in fucking ice baths like making unblinking eye. contact with one another. It's a good article.

I'll link off to it in the footnote. It's in this periodical. The New Yorker used to be the new Amsterdam. I meant to ask, how did that go with you and your kids last week at the camp? It's not great. They weren't super on board, but I got a lot out of it. But in giving background to this alpha male movement and the idea of alpha male, the article mentions that the book that popularized the term in the 80s was about primates.

It was called chimpanzee politics. And it found that alpha males, like that there are chimpanzees in the group that are the most powerful and like the leaders and ultimately make the decisions. And like the traits of those chimpanzees are that they are coalition builders and highly, empathetic. They're like Consolers in chief is what they like called them in the book. They help they like make sure that nobody

gets held down or like bullied or anything. Right. Because it was like it was a myth right. We talked about how that was like debunked sort of like from a biological standpoint like the scientific idea of like the alpha male

whatever like that there are obviously like leaders of a group of like in the leaders, but they have nothing to do with the traits that are associated with it by the alpha male movement. It's the stuff that you would expect. You're not a tyrant. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, it's...

I give a fuck. It's kind of, in fact, the exact opposite. But just people's ability to take a work and be like, I'm actually going to take the exact opposite from this. Like, Newt Gingrich gave it around to a bunch of

politicians in the early 90s. and they just, from there, because it was Republicans, they just, the only thing they took from this actual scientific study was the phrase alpha male. Yeah, that's it. That there's an idea that there can be a super, super guy. Right. Who leads it all. Yeah.

Yeah. I think there are a bunch of studies about alpha males, but the one they say really popularized the phrase alpha male was this 1982 book, Chimpanzee politics. And that found the exact opposite of what everybody says alpha males are supposed to be like. I'm a bit of an alpha than myself. Yeah. That'd be the fun thing.

Like, no, bro, you're not. Actually, you're a drone. Yeah, exactly. You're not leading shit, bro. You know what I mean? I mean, let's look at how these people are so easily manipulated. I mean, which is probably closer than being lone wolves. Right.

You know, like than anything. Like what they're doing is like, nah, bro, don't give a fuck. You control everything. Where'd everybody go? Everyone is repulsed by me. Yeah. All right.

Those are some of the things we think are overrated, underrated. We're going to take a quick break. We're going to come back and see if all of the news stories have been solved while I was away. We'll be right back. I'm Lori Siegel. And I'm mostly human.

I go beyond the headlines with the people building our future. This week, an interview with one of the most influential figures in Silicon Valley, OpenAI, CEO, Sam, I think society is going to decide that creators of AI products bear a tremendous amount of responsibility to products we put out in the world. From power to parenthood. Kids, teenagers, I think they won't need a lot of guardrails around AI. This is such a powerful and such a new thing.

From addiction to acceleration. The world we live in is a competitive world. And I don't think that's going to stop. Even if you did a lot of redistribution, you know, we have a deep desire to excel and be competitive and gain status and be useful to others. And it's a multiplayer. game. What does the man who has extraordinary influence over our lives have to say about the weight of that responsibility? Find out a mostly human. My highest order bit is to not destroy the world with AI. Listen to Mostly Human on the IHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to your favorite

shows. Why hasn't a woman formally participated in a Formula One race weekend in over a decade? Think about how many skills they have to develop at such a young age. What can we learn from all of the new F1 romance novel suddenly popping up every year. He still smelled of podium champagne and expensive friction. And how did a 2023 event called Wagageddon change the paddock forever? That day is just seared into my memory. I'm culture writer and F1 expert Lily Herman, and these are just a few of the questions I'm tackling on no grip, a Formula One culture podcast that dives into the under-explored pockets

of the sport. In each episode, a different guests and I will go deeper, into the wacky mishap scandals and sagas, both on the track and far away from it, that have made F1 a delightful, decadent dumpster fire for more than 75 years. Listen to no grip on the IHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And 10 shots five, City Hall building. A silver 40 caliber handgun was recovered at the scene. From IHeart podcasts and Best Case Studios, this is Worshack, murder at City Hall. How could this have happened in City Hall?

Somebody tell me that. July 2003, Councilman James E. Davis arrives at New York City Hall with a guest. Both men are carrying concealed weapons. And in less than 30 minutes, both of them will be dead. Everybody in the chamber is ducked. A shocking public murder. I scream, get down, get down.

Those are shots. Those are shots, get down. A charismatic politician. You know, he just bent the rules all the time. I still have a weapon, and I could shoot you. And an outsider was a secret. He alleged he was a victim of flatdown. That may or may not have been political.

That may have been about sex. Listen to Rorschach, murder at City Hall, on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, I'm Jay Shetty, host of the On Purpose podcast. My latest episode is with Noah Kahn, the singer-songwriter behind the multi-platinum global hit stick season and one of the biggest voices in music today. Noa opens up about the pressure

that followed his rapid success, his struggles with mental health and body image, and the fear of starting again after such a defining moment in his career. It's easy to look at somebody and be like, your life must be so sick. Man, you have no clue. Talking about the mental illness stuff, it used to be this thing that I was ashamed of. I'm just now trying to unwind this idea that I have to be unhealthy physically or in pain in some emotional way in my life to create good music. If someone says that I did a good job, I'm like, yeah, I'm good.

Someone says that I suck. I'm like, I suck. Getting to talk about this is not common for me. Right now I need it more than ever. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Chetty on the IHart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And we're back. It seems like still bad.

Still bad. Yeah. Easter weekend was yet another weekend dominated by online rumors that Donald Trump had secretly been admitted to Walter Reed Medical Center and or died. This is real obsession of the people. I don't know. I don't get it. What's everybody?

I mean, it was like a thing that always trends like when it finally happens. Right. It's like a thing. Or there's always some version of it that, yeah, that's, I mean, there's a lot of, I mean, this is the closest to a bunch of people praying. for something. I think. Right. This is how we pray now. This prompted White House communications

director Stephen Chung to post that Trump has been working nonstop in the White House and Oval Office over the Easter weekend, which is also clearly a lie. So now it's hard to know who to believe. On the one hand, I don't think he's dead. But on the other hand, that's not true. There's no way in hell. He's working through the weekend. This is also such a weak defense to their like, oh my God, his health is so bad, he's working all the time.

Okay, why don't you respond to the thing that we're talking about is that he is unwell? Well, he's working all the time. No, actually, he's working really hard. No, no, but his brain, his cognitive abilities seem to be dwindling. He thinks he's working really hard, so we're just going to leave it at that. We give him a legal pad, and he does this thing where he makes it look like a tornado because he just does a bunch of circles over and over and over and over again.

It's really cool. This was from my test that I aced, that I did the best test ever. Look at that. I believe that's a Parkinson's test. Yeah. Either way. Nailed it.

Nailed it. Swish. Look at that, baby. He said positive. So Easter morning, he, of course, released the famous tweet or truth. Open the fucking straight,

you crazy bastards. Or you'll be living in hell. Just watch. Praise be to Allah. Oh, boy. What? Because the full thing was, because he's threatening war crimes, right? Sure. Tuesday will be power plant day and bridge day, all wrapped up in one in Iran. There would be nothing like it. Open the fucking straight, you crazy bastards. You'll be living in hell. Just watch. This is the closest to him admitting defeat, I think we've seen so far.

Yeah, it doesn't seem like he's coming. He's playing a strong hand. Yeah. Open the open it. You crazy bastards. Open it. You crazy bastards. You crazy bastards.

What the fuck is this guy? I mean, I don't even know I'm saying what the fuck. This is what happens when someone who is well beyond their capabilities. And in fact, now everything he does is negative. Yeah, this is where you're going to be at. I'm surprised he's just he's going to end up posting something like, just stop. Right.

Stop it. Stop it. People did. So yes, this is the sort of unhinged thing that he would post. On the other hand, people were pointing out, open the fucking straight. He did fucking apostrophe. Yeah.

No G. No way would he do an apostrophe. Well, no way is he writing. Right. That's the thing. It's probably him saying things that he's like, these crazy bastards need to open the fucking straight. And they're like, oh, okay, I think I got something.

Yeah. I think, yeah, like conspiracy theories are helpful, symbolic works that like we should be paying attention to. It's like some of the most popular fiction being created today. So in the same way that we like look at the content of movies that people are enjoying, like we should probably pay attention to what the conspiracy theories are. and like obviously this one in particular that he's dead is uh i think tells us the obvious thing that like a lot of people wish it would finally happen all cats um right and you know but i also think it

like highlights the weird hyper reality we live in where like it doesn't really like the point about him writing fucking is a good one that's clearly not him but it's never really him right he's a conglomeration of like different people posting on his behalf. Like the words he posts are in some ways treated as like binding and like the work of a president and people live and die based on them. Right. But they're more or less aimed at just like winning an argument with the internet more than making decisions on behalf of anyone. And he is like, yeah, right. Yeah, right. Yeah. He's just a brand. He's just like a meme. And yet he runs the most powerful military in the world. So like, there's there's something unnerving about that that I think these theories are like kind of

working through that like alive or dead there's not actually a person there nobody's really in charge like literally it's just a series of like different people posting on his behalf trying to get engagement but it's not clear there's a real decision making process that makes any more sense happening behind the scenes yeah it like truly it is there's a bunch of people. It's a bunch of freaks in a Trump-shaped skin bag. Right. Basically. And he's there. He has things he says. But at

the end of the day, when you think about the people who actually know what's going on and that they're hiding stuff from him, that functionally now you actually been taken out from any decision making when you're like, well, don't tell him how bad it is. Show him a montage of boats blowing up and say,

oh, all good boss. Not the fake ones. Not the fake ones that we blew up that were just drawings on The real ones. The real ones. Make sure we do the real ones. They look like real ships, didn't they? They just painted black on the ground.

They got us. We've been attacked. The presidential motorcade almost went through a tunnel that was just drawn on the side of a cliff. Unbelievable. These people, the lengths that they will go to, highly, highly sophisticated stuff. Crazy bastards. These crazy bastards we're dealing with. Crazy bastards is like one step or.

from rascally rabbit, I feel like, you know, you crazy bastard, do you what? What the fuck are you talking about? Then he, he did prove the haters wrong that he wasn't actually dead at the annual White House Easter egg roll where he bragged about the stock market, the might of the military, the rescue of the downed American pilot, while the Easter Bunny applauded next to him. Yeah, man, very odd. how far we've fallen, the Easter Bunny. The Easter Bunny, by the way,

if you didn't listen to last week's ICONS episode, we were talking about how the Easter Bunny should be more coated with more divine feminine energy. This Easter Bunny had a fucking tie on. Yeah, what the fuck? Look, you should know

switch it up with the Easter Bunny. It was just so bizarre because like you're saying, talking about all these global events, but then his whole like shout out to Melania too, just to and bring it. He's, she's a movie style, folks.

Big thing, and it was a big thing to our great first lady who's here someplace. Literally next to you. Literally right next to him. He's looking at her. I think this is our first lady.

What do you think of our first lady? She's a movie star. She's a movie star. Sounds like the fucking guy dumb and dumber when he was, he's like, my heart, my old son.

My horse. If that all wasn't fun enough for the kids, he proclaimed that one year ago our country was dead. We had a dead country. We had an administration that didn't know what the hell they were doing. That's actually factually true. Today we have the hottest country anywhere in the world due to climate change. Last year, though, you were in charge.

You were in charge, brother. Brother, this is your administration that you're talking. He's not. This is a thing. And like, that's why it's so, there have been, there have been a few reports about how the 25th amendment bets are like starting to fly. Now,

I don't know if that means anything, obviously because, but also at the same time, like, I don't know, man, maybe there's some insider trading going on. Yeah,

are we getting any big, like, insider trading sized bets? That's when, that's when I'll start paying attention. They just said the odds have been going up steadily. And then, but it seems like a lot of people,

we'll talk about it tomorrow. Like, after this like we like even by his standards like that through social post like a lot of conservatives like yeah yeah yeah it's hard it's hard to rally behind i feel like because then there some conservatives are like how are you saying all praise to allah on Easter though one of the most significant Christian holidays like there are some people just like what is the point of even saying that it doesn't makes sense. And you're like, he's trying to be flippant and disrespectful

because he's lost his damn mind and he's always just been a flippant and disrespectful person. Yeah, that's kind of his whole mode, modus operandi. The Easter egg roll did have a patriotic theme where the eggs were red, white, and blue. Oh, great. So red and blue.

Because the eggs are white. So that's, that's true. You got, all right, you got us there. You got us there. But also just like these corporations who are all on board with this, Meta had a booth that like talked to people about AI. YouTube gave swag bags. There was a challenge coin creation station hosted by the New York Stock Exchange and Coke was giving away free Diet Coke.

So, kids love a Diet Coke. Oh, yeah. They're clamoring for it. Everybody's favorite. Marlboro. was giving away free Marlboro lights. Yeah. Did you see at one point Trump was, I think he was hoping that his great Easter egg hunt will mean that the midterms are going to go well for him?

Because he's like, how did I do the Easter egg vote? How did I do with the voters that do eggs? Awesome. You say 100% or 90%? 100%. Anybody in the egg industry vote for Kamala? A low IQ person. She's a low IQ person.

Oh, boy. How do I do with the people who do eggs? I think talking to like the egg lobby. Like egg manufacturing? Yeah. The people that do the eggs. Do you do eggs? Did I do good?

Okay, so that's five votes I can count on. Well, speaking of people letting their hair down, Rick Scott went to Disneyland. Letting your bald head breathing. Letting his non-existent hair down. Proudly informed TMZ that he has fucked off to Disney World. because the shutdown wasn't his decision. So this is, Lindsay Graham, I guess, got in trouble while I was away.

It wouldn't have happened on my wife. If I was here, I wouldn't have made fun of Lindsey Graham. Hey, guys, leave Lindsay out of this. The tangled section of Disneyland is whimsical. I would have the same look on my face while holding a bubble wand. Oh, my God. Find a new angle. What a weird thing for him to.

He looked wasted. Yeah. As he was like, it was just like, it was just like, like the weirdest. Like, did you see that actual picture of him like in the tangled section? No. Just mouth agape. Like, I'll show it to you. It's just, this is him with his bubble wand. Wow. Wow. I was holding it for my friend's child. Okay, dude, whatever. It's fine. Either way, it's an L that you're fucking there. But Lindsay doesn't have kids. He's a, he's, uh, what are Washington's most eligible bachelors? 100%. Real Poonham. that guy.

So, surprising that that's how he spent his capital. But yeah, Scott knew he was about to be facing some shit and came through and was like, hey, TMZ, yes, I'm at Disney with my grandkids. Should we be in D.C.?

Yes, but I don't get to make that decision. And then posted a picture of himself, his wife, and one of their grandchildren, and unblurred. So he knew this was going to be a highly controversial post to the point that he opens it up like someone who's like mid-shouting match.

Right, right, right. You ever like have somebody who starts talking to you at a point where you're like, oh, you're deep in an argument that I was not a part of that's just happening inside your head? You've been talking for 20 minutes

inside your head, huh? Yes, yes. But I love that as part of that, he includes his granddaughter's unblurred face that's what the picture As a grandfather to a human daughter, grandchild, I believe this is my... Also, his wife's get-up is very interesting. She got like a short tennis skirt on with...

Short tennis skirt. With knee-high socks on. This is very teen, coding. I know. I was... I've definitely seen that look. I did not see it coming from Rick Scott's wife, but, you know. And they both got the racist vice principal Brooks sneakers on, too.

Oh, yeah. Yeah, dripping. Like walking on clouds, man. Yeah, man. These things are soaking, at least soaking like water. Okay. And then Greg Abbott, a few weeks ago, he shared a video. Hold on.

The follow up, though, to that Rick Scott thing was as a Florida Republican politician, when the woke Disney Wars were going down. Oh, yeah, he was out. That guy clearly poked a, picked a fucking side on all this shit. Yeah. he wrote a op-ed for the Washington Examiner in 2022 titled No one wants a woke mouse in their house. I got rid of my Disney Plus.

I'm not planning on going back to the park. Cut to. Here you are. Yeah, I'm at Disney World with my grandkids. He went on tour with that shit. He was writing going on all the Fox Newses to talk about how Disney was over, it was over for them. And then he's like, yeah, I shouldn't be here,

but how am I going to resist the magic of Disney? Yeah. Also admitting to the fact that even before when he, like when all that quote unquote controversy was having, he was like, I've enjoyed, quote, I've enjoyed taking my children and grandchildren to Disney World. And I really had no problems with Disney.

But now just like many huge corporations, it's going woke. It's really a shame. It's going woke, you guys. Yeah, well, the kids love woke dickhead. So what are you going to do? Be like, hey, we're going to take you to the actual filming of the new Kevin Sorbo smash hit night at the Bible Museum. Okay, fuck Disney World.

You're going to like this place. Trust me. That's what my kids are doing for their summer break. We're going night at the Bible museum. I'm about to sponsor someone's kid to go. Just I'm like, bro, where are this body cam in there? Do some improv. Be so fucked up for the kid, though.

I know. I just maybe, maybe like a wig and say I'm 14. I've got, you know, like some sort of pituitary situation going on. Kind of a big, big 14-year-old. I see like a hacker to like just hack into those security cameras. I just need to know what the fuck it looks at. Yeah. But anyway, oh, Rick Scott, you tried, you tried.

Let's take a quick break. Okay. We'll be right back. I'm Lori Siegel and I'm mostly human. I go beyond the headlines with the people building our future. This week, an interview with one of the most influential figures in Silicon Valley. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman. I think society is going to decide that creators of AI products

July 2003, Councilman James E. Davis arrives at New York City Hall with a guest. Both men are carrying concealed weapons. And in less than 30 minutes, both of them will be dead. Now, everybody in the chambers

docks. A shocking public murder. A scream, get down, get down. Those are shots. Those are shots, get down. A charismatic politician. You know, he just bent and ruled. all the time. I still have a weapon, and I could shoot you.

Hey, I'm Jay Shetty, host of the On Purpose podcast. My latest episode is with Noah Kohn, the singer-songwriter behind the Multimals platinum global hit stick season, and one of the biggest voices in music today. Noah opens up about the pressure that followed his rapid success, his struggles with mental health and body image, and the fear of starting again after such a defining moment in his career. It's easy to look at somebody and be like, your life must be so sick.

Man, you have no clue. Talking about the mental illness stuff, it used to be this thing that I was ashamed of. I'm just now trying to unwind this idea that I have to be unhealthy physically or in pain in some emotional way in my life to create good music. If someone says that I did a good job, I'm like, yeah, I'm good. Someone says that I suck. I'm like, I suck. Getting to talk about this is not common for me.

Right now, I need it more than ever. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Chetty on the IHartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And we're back. We're back. And let's get out of Washington for a, for a week. for a second. Let's go to the moon. You seen this?

You see these guys wearing the orange astronaut uniforms? I've been up on Artemis because they got a toilet that sucks piss and poo and they have their own door on it. Okay. And the toilet stopped working. No. Yeah. The pee thing, the pee tube stopped working.

What is going on with our poops and peas? Because that was also like a big thing. that a big story coming out of the aircraft carrier that was lining up in Iran was that they were pooping too much for it. It got... That was on fire? Yeah.

There was big plumbing issues. I think our shits are too big. I mean, hopefully those sailors just compromised the mission to be like, bro, we're not fucking doing this, man. Just set the shits on fire and we'll just, we'll pretend like we can't do anything. But I don't know. I don't know what the point.

I thought, I'm not sure. To be fully transparent, I don't know what the Artemis mission is about. I thought it was just about them pooping in space. But I'm learning that this is one of the first lunar missions since like the 70s. If you had watched Apollo 13. I did. And paid attention, you would have known that they've been peeing into space since the... No, I know that.

I know that. I know that. I just didn't know what the point of this mission was. Yeah. You know what I mean? Your pee and poo get sucked off into space. Oh, man. You got me.

I'm back in. I'm back in. That's all it is. Then just explaining that over and over again. I do, but people are talking about the fact that this evening for a period of 40 minutes, they will lose contact with the Earth. We will lose contact with them.

And people are saying, like, they're going to be passing behind the moon. So I was doing some research on this. Michael Collins had a, so they'll be on the dark side of the moon. We won't be able to talk to them. but they'll be able to talk to each other. Michael Collins had the loneliest moment in maybe human history

where he was still in the spacecraft as Buzz and Neal went down on... Buzz Lightyear and Neil... Neil did the deal from the mattress warehouse? Exactly. They went down in the landing, the lunar landing module. He was a guy who was by himself. In the cuck probe. In the cuck probe.

Watching his boys get messy with the moon. Cut off from them and cut off from the world. So he was literally completely isolated. And his response was relief. He described the experience saying he felt truly alone and isolated from any known life, but that he didn't feel fear or loneliness. In later interviews, he described the peace and tranquility brought by the radio silence, saying it offered a break from the constant.

request from mission control. It's just like, these fuckers won't shut up. God, leave me alone. Oh, my God. I love that. Yeah. There was a thing, too, when you were gone, where they were, for whatever reason, they're like, I think we're running

two versions. We have two Microsoft Outlooks on our computer. Oh, no. It's like a little bit of sound. They're running Microsoft Outlook. Yeah. Yeah. That shit is the Yeah. Yeah. So good luck trying to find an email. That's what I was saying.

The search function on Microsoft Outlook. It's just funny because they're like, this is the clip. Yeah, go for it. And then I also see that I have two Microsoft Outlooks and neither one of those are working. If you want to remote in and check Optimus on those two Outlooks, that would be awesome.

I got two Outlooks and none of them work. Bro, most of us have one Outlook and the shit doesn't work too. Two versions of Outland. Great ad for Microsoft. That's wild. These people who can figure out insane technology are like, yeah, but we ran

into a roadblock with Outlook. What if they have like an Apollo 13 situation and it's caused by Outlook, just shitting the bed. And finally, Super Mario Galaxy dropped over the weekend to critical indifference.

Someone would say dislike. One critic, called it worse than AI of the Guardian said the Super Mario Galaxy movie review. Blan screen saver of a movie that's actually worse than AI.

Wow. I didn't even know there was a new. How the fuck? Did you know this came out? No. Oh, my. I don't know shit. Big news.

Big news in the world of eight and nine-year-olds. Yeah, I know. Because my kid doesn't see commercials and shit, so he doesn't know about like, you know, consumer culture hasn't touched him in that way where he's like, This new thing is come out.

This toy is here. I just realized there was a new toy story coming out in June. And I was like, oh, shit. Perfect timing because my kid is obsessed with fucking Buzz Lightyear. So I've been showing him some of Tim Allen stand up because I'm like, oh, if you fuck with this, you're going to like Tim Allen stand up. You're going to really like this guy.

This guy fucking rips, bro. Check this shit up. That's so fucked up bland screen saver of a movie that's actually worse than AI. This is like with Chris Pratt doing the voices. Oh, yeah. Chris Pratt, Donald Blubber, as, Yoshi, but like, Yoshi doesn't really do much, doesn't have

enough to do. I saw that clip of them on the... Get played? Yeah, get played. Yeah, with Matt and Heather and McWyger. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, that's why they were talking so much about Yoshi. I was like, why the fuck did Donald Clever give a fuck about your love? It did ask a really good question, which is like, are Yoshi's eyes

two separate eyes, or are they one eye with two separate pupils? It's hard to say, but... And you're, you know, the thing that you love to talk about, the biological thing about the where your eyes are on the head. Yeah. If they're on the side.

Yeah. If they're on the side. If they're that close, if there's one eye, one eye. Would just focused on killing whatever's in front of them. I'm going to eat this dancing cactus. Segment by segment.

Yeah. They also had some weird tie-ins with this one. And this, I can't believe that you missed. Obviously, toys, breakfast cereals, but a line of Old Spice that presumably leaves you smelling like a middle-aged

plumber. I didn't know this was to do with the movie. I was like, finally, Old Spice is trying to direct a product at me with characters that I know and love and understand. Yeah. Castle Crush, the Old Spice one with Princess Peach on the front with what looks like a baseball bat over

a shoulder, but it's actually an umbrella. Like a parasol. Yeah. Yeah. It's a little parisle. Desert detour? I don't know, man. Desert detour doesn't sound like it's going to smell good at all.

No. Like, you're evoking a hot environment for a, like a body odor thing. You're like, hey, man, and there's a detour. Yeah.

Oh. Desert is just sounds sweaty and unshout. Like, I don't picture being able to shower much when I'm in the desert, especially on a trip where there are detours. Well, I miss, I smell like ammonia mixed with cumin.

So. There you go. Sorry that everyone's sinuses are opening up. Your signature scent. What is that? Oh, ammonia and cumin. The movie made $372.5 million globally, making it the biggest Hollywood opening of 2026 so far.

Third highest grossing weekend for a video game adaptation behind a Minecraft movie and the first Super Mario Brothers. So it didn't quite reach the level of the first one. Oh, great. But Hollywood will finally learn their lesson to do with this. to actually not just like rush it out and just gonna keep doing it. I don't know, dude.

We just made 370 off of that. Fire it up again. I watched this movie. I watched the parts that I was able to remain awake for. And. You were that dad? I was asleep. Yeah.

I was out. And I didn't fall asleep during the first one. The first one I thought it helped my attention. I had some good bits. I thought they, it was better than it needed to be. And this one was not. This one was just as good as it needed to be for my kids to be like,

that was pretty fucking sick, dude. All right. Pretty good. That's what it's made for, I guess. Although that's where it's like funny, where the content won't capture someone who will actually buy the old spice. Right. But they're like,

but the movie is for the kids who know not what old spice is. Oh, my toxic masculinity makes it such that my children do not wash with anything other than old spice. Wow. Yeah. Thanks. It has to be made for a mayhem. They got to smell good for our alpha camp. Well, I guess I'll just have to miss that one, too.

But 370. That's the thing that's like really wild. It's like all the reviews are bad. It's, I guess really for children, they're fucking with it. But again, the lesson will be like, okay, we need to make five more of these. Right. Yeah. And we'll make them as quickly as,

the market dictates as opposed to what the art dictates. I do think this is the one that finally gets Chris Pratt is long overdue Oscar. He's amazing in this. All right. Those are some of the things that are trending on this Monday, April 6th. We are back tomorrow with a whole last episode of the show. Until then, be kind to each other.

Be kind to yourselves. Get your vaccines way you still can. Get your flu shots. Don't do nothing about. white supremacy, and we will talk to y'all tomorrow. Bye. Hi. The Daily Ziteguise is executive produced by Catherine Law. Co-produced by Baye Wayne.
