Although today is really busy, we're hosting the podcast awards. So you're hosting the podcast awards. We squeeze you in. We're in Austin right now about to hop in a hop in a bus over into the theater. Oh, that's why you guys couldn't record in person. I was going to say I was trying to find a time in Los Angeles. I just got back from Los Angeles yesterday, but I was only there for the weekend. So, but you guys-

I also haven't recorded in person since before the pandemic. I mean, we have like once or twice, but it's like we- it was actually last year at Southby, we like recorded in the same room and it was like so weird. Oh, that's funny. Let's just like go to our own hotel rooms and like do Zoom. We're used to that. We're used to the delay. I can't keep up with Miles without the delay, you know?

So now we're in, I think Jack might literally be mere feet below me on a separate floor. That's so funny. It should sound as stale as most of the recordings. Hello the internet and welcome to season 379 episode two of Dirt Island. It's a production of iHeartRadio. It's a podcast where we take a deep dive into American shared consciousness and it is Tuesday, March 11th, 2025. What a Monday it was yesterday.

The KKK. All right, 11th. 11th. KKK. I know. And they had to come out and be like, dude, we are not on some KKK shit. That was like the name of-

We're just big fans of the New York Public Service. Public Works. I think it was something about like the school they went to in Nebraska. I think they're from Nebraska or some shit anyway ask It's also National funeral director mortician recognition day national promposal day Don't be racist out here with some fuckery with your promposed in fact fuck it. I don't even want don't do stuff What shit you know people are like? Yeah, they're people always do some blackface that shit. They were like, I should be picking cotton, but instead I pick you for, you know, I love that I knew exactly what you were talking about.

And you were like, don't do the racist stuff. There's always so I don't know why this is like, this is like white kids first dabble into like edgy racist shit thinking it's all cool. Yeah, no. And so they just go right to racism. Well, I hear it all the time at home and it's acceptable. My mom thought this was funny when I workshopped it with her. National Worship of Tools Day.

This is so wild. Okay, shout out Tesla owners and national Johnny Appleseed day. All right. Well, shout out to Johnny Appleseed. The realist. My son was asking me like the difference. He was like, there are like some myths that are real. Right?

He was like, like the guy with the giant blue ox. That's not real. I was like, correct. He was like, but Johnny Appleseed is real. I was like correct. He was like but Johnny Appleseed is real I was like I guess kind of does it sounds like it shouldn't be but yeah I mean just a guy playing a bunch of apples dude good. I mean what a superpower to have My name is Jack O'Brien aka potatoes O'Brien and I'm thrilled to be joined as always by my co-host Mr. Miles Gray. Hey, it's Miles Gray, AKA, you've got a fascist car. Elon's a man whose boot you can lick.

Austin down at Tesla's store. France knows how to deal with oligarch shit. OK, shout out to Hannah Ramic View for that one. I was also, I heard like a country version of Fast Car while in Austin, and that felt violent. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just like, hey, I've like a country version of Fast Car while in Austin and that felt violent. Yeah, yeah. Just like, hey, I've got a fast car. And I'm like, hold on.

Are you sure you didn't just have a southern accent while singing it? No, this was a full on, there was slide guitar and everything. This was the country version of Fast Car. Welcome to Texas, baby. Yeah. Yeah. And I guess, oh, I think it's the Luke Combs version. Probably. That's the first one. Yeah, that was the one. He doesn't need the one who like did it at the Grammys and then brought out

Tracy Chapman. And by comparison, everyone was like Tracy Chapman is the greatest musician of all time. Yeah, right. People, I guess had only heard his version and were like, Whoa, that's so fucked up. Oh, that makes sense. Okay. So right. That was the reason the revival happened. So I guess hearing it now, knowing, I guess, as a, as a millennial from born in the eighties, like I know the original work, it's just, again, hearing it was upsetting.

So let's just let the Tracy Chapman version bang. Yo, but yeah, thank you. There was a psycho remake as like remake that most fell short of the original. Yeah. Also, the girl put your records on went viral during the pandemic, but the cover band went viral. They were called Rit Momny or something. Rit Momny.

I think we just need to make covers illegal. Like if you love this song that much, just tell your followers to stream the original. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. There has to be like a guilt at a certain point.

You're like, y'all, please. It really isn't me. It's the original work. Yeah, literally. Sorry I did that. Vogue, J'Brien. That doesn't work as well as Rit Mamne. That's a pretty good one.

Miles, we're thrilled to be joined in our third seat by a hilarious comedian who's about to make her off-Broadway debut with her stand-up show, How to Embarrass Your Immigrant Parents. She's also the creator of Emily in Paris. It's Abby Govindan! Abby! Oh my god, hey guys, I'm so excited to be here not the creator of Emily in Paris

that was just a mass disinformation campaign that was extremely successful. So what happened you, after Emily in Paris was somehow nominated for best comedy series at the Golden Globes. You just were like,

hell yeah, I created the best comedy series and started saying some wild shit about Emily in Paris. I just, this was the tweet, February 3rd, 2021. Yeah, I was just like, the original tweet that went viral was like, as the creator of Emily in Paris, can I just say why the fuck were we nominated for a Golden Globe? Can I curse? Yeah, yeah, oh yeah. Why the ash were we nominated for Golden Globe?? Yeah. Why the Ash were we nominated for Golden Globes? I made that show as a prank and then several news outlets tweeted it as if it was real and I got reached out to by the BBC.

I talked about it in my solo show actually. It's a lot of fun. That's so funny. And it was a lot of fun. It was a very fun month that went viral. That's so great. They were like, so. Like it was a very fun month that went viral. Yeah. So great. They were like, so you made it as a prank?

Whoa. Yeah. That's so sick. Yeah. I like got back to the cast and the crew and the actual creator. It was insane. Like it's, it is really funny. I was like 22 and living with my parents when this went viral.

It was in like 2021. Abby, the BBC is on the phone. Yeah, then that's, I was just like, this show is so bad that people earnestly thought that like some 23 year old who lives with her parents like made the show. Yeah, it was really, it was a fun time to be on the internet.

It was like, pretty post-woke. Like it was fun time to be on the internet. It was like free post-woke. Like it was fun to still be on the internet. Like being racist still had consequences in 2021. Do you guys remember that? Vaguely. Now, now like if you're racist on the internet, they hand you like a $200 million podcast deal and like a TV series.

Back in my day, back, at the peak of woke, there used to still be consequences for being racist. And that was fun. Yeah. Yeah. I just learned people would like tweet out your home address and like text your high school and like, you know, make sure, make sure you didn't get hired for a work for another decade.

Now, like you tweet out a slur, you get a million followers in a podcast deal. It's crazy. It's crazy work. Yeah. Like, hey man, do you want to be the new face of Black Rifle Coffee? Yeah. Yeah. Literally.

Why not? I just like that one of the tweets that you did in that string of the Emily in Paris. Yes, I am an Indian woman who created a show about a white girl in Paris. Why would I care about telling diverse stories when I can tell not diverse stories and make $20 million from it? You guys did your research. This is hilarious. So funny. All right, Abby, 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 we're talking about today. We're going to talk about poor JD Vance getting harassed by people that he had to walk three miles to talk to. And we're going to talk about Trump comparing himself to Elvis, which I think is the first apt comparison he's made between himself and a historical figure. We'll ask the question whether being a fascist asshole could possibly be bad for business in certain consequences. Certainly not in most circumstances, but maybe in the Tesla version of things.

We'll talk about that and we'll check with Mickey 17, the Bong Joon-Ho's new movie. I didn't see it yet. It came out. It didn't do bad, but it didn't do great considering that it cost $118 million to make. So we'll talk about that as compared to next week's big movie, the electric state from the Rousseau brothers, the brothers behind the Avengers movies. That one's at 23% on Rotten Tomatoes.

And it costs like 320 million to me. It is one of, if not the most expensive movie of all time. Oh, shit. Do we have a new Cutthroat Island? I mean, we might, we might have a new. Yeah. It's been a while for us to have a cutthroat island. But before we get to any of that shit, Abby, we do like to ask our guests, what is something from your search history that's revealing for us to have a cutthroat island. Yeah. I know. But before we get to any of that shit, Abby, we do like to ask our guest,

what is something from your search history that's revealing about who you are? Oh, I looked up young Joni Mitchell. I did not know who Joni Mitchell was. And I have a defense. So like when I was in middle school and high school, I used to get made fun of for not knowing classic rock or any of those rock folk bands. My friends were really big fans of Kiss and the- The other ones. The other ones, yeah.

I was like- Led Zeppelin, The Dwarves Five. I didn't know this. Then I realized as an adult that the reason I didn't know those bands is because my friends' parents grew up in America. Your parents grew up in America. They were kids when they listened to that. They put you onto it when you're growing up with them.

They're like, oh, this is what I listened to when I was 12. My parents are immigrants. They grew up in India. My parents were fluent in English when they immigrated here But there were certain things that they listened to non-stop to help them master conversational American English because they learned like British English in the schools, so Like my parents when they first immigrated here, they had the Britney Spears album They had the Backstreet Boys album and they watched Seinfeld and Friends nonstop to like see how Americans talk to

each other. So like back, I know that there was a Backstreet Boys versus Nsync like war in the nineties and everyone was team Nsync. I was team Backstreet Boys because that album was like on repeat in the car. Yeah. Which one? Millennium? Yeah. Yeah. That one. Backstreet's back tonight? Yeah, so anyway, Amanda Seyfried went on Jimmy Fallon

and she sang California by Joni Mitchell and it's a beautiful song. It was my first time hearing it ever, like a couple of days ago. And then everyone on Twitter was like, Amanda Seyfried needs to play Joni Mitchell in the biopic. And I was like, who is Joni Mitchell? Like every now and then like some like classic

rock or folk singer goes viral on the internet because everyone's like, Oh, who's gonna play them in the biopic? This person that we all know and are familiar with. And I had never heard of Joni Mitchell before. I this is my first time hearing one of her songs. So I did like an extreme deep dive on her a couple of days ago. And I'm impressed. I have to say Amanda Seifried should play her in the biopic. Also, her songs are just very beautiful. Of course, I listened to a lot of folk songs that come out in the 21st century,

and it was cool to listen to Joni Mitchell's songs because I can hear the origins of modern folk music. Obviously, go back to Joni's songs that she was releasing in the 70s, 80s, and 90s. Well, we're getting a lot of young actors performing folk songs. Like, didn't- Yeah. Timothy Chalamet performed as Bob Dylan on SNL. Yeah, Bob Dylan, another person that I didn't know until people started talking about him last year.

Yeah, yeah. They were both good-looking people when they were young. Yeah, definitely. Well, shout out to the Backstreet Boys. I think you chose correctly. I think history judges the Backstreet Boys favorably over in. Yeah. I would say. Yeah. Wait, did Amanda Seyfried when she was performing with Joni Mitchell

Did she do it when Joni Mitchell did blackface or no? Yeah, yeah To do it I feel like a couple times where she had a character that she called art nouveau She called her blackface character. Oh my god. You milkshake Duck Joni Mitchell for me so quickly. Yeah. I mean look, it's just, it is what it is. The music bangs, but there was, there's a, there's a whole, I'm pretty sure there's a whole Wikipedia section dedicated to that. Dang, that's crazy. See, this is why you, like, when you, when I'm a fan of a white person in their 80s, I'm always like, yeah, here's praying, let me go in the Wikipedia controversy section

and hope that it's not too much of a war zone in there. In 1994, she told the LA Weekly, I write like a black poet. I frequently write from a black perspective. Yeah. I mean, she's basically black. So that's really, she should get to do it. You know, you'll get to the blackface. I feel like Johnny. Yeah. You want to go to Johnny Mitchell?

Shout out to the black artists. I think you're right though. That's an interesting point about like, because when I got to middle school and everybody was in to the doors and Led Zeppelin, I was definitely starting from zero. Because my parents were like into Billy Joel and Shaday. And like I never they never played like classic rock for me. That was just like not a thing that existed in our house. And then and then like, yeah, got caught up. But that, that is kind of an interesting idea of like, yeah, what your parents were into does shape like your whole kind of background of, of music.

Now I only listen to, you know, shitty R&B from the eighties. Now I listen to Billy Joel and Friday. Yeah. Uh, all right. Uh, Abby, what is something you think's underrated? No, underrated? Underrated? I am listening to a lot of South Asian musicians who I just don't think get their flowers enough. I think that there's just so many talented young musicians who are sonically just taking a lot of risks. I feel like I have bought in early if that makes

sense. Like I feel like I'm buying Apple stock in the 80s by being fans of these people on, on, you know, Spotify when they have like 10,000, 20,000 monthly listeners. There's this one musician whose new album I'm obsessed with his name is BJ the Music Man, like that's his like stage name. And he has this amazing album that just blew up to like 2 million, 3 million streams kind of, not kind of out of nowhere, but 2 million, 3 million streams is like really, really impressive for your debut album. But the song, I mean, the album is just that good. Like every song is just like so pleasurable to listen to. You can tell that there was a lot of intention and care into the crafting of the song and the production of the music.

I love him. I hope he blows up and gets the TikTok fame and the Spotify checks and the accolades that so many other young viral musicians get to experience now. I'd love to see a young Indian dude get those accolades. So I'm really excited for his career and seeing where he goes. VJ, the letters VJ, the music man. Yeah. That's right.

Yeah. All right. Yeah. You're jumping in early. His SEO isn't very good even. He's hard to find. But it's about to be better. Yeah, that's right. Yeah, given all of that. After this episode.

Oh, I hope so. Given all of that, the fact that his debut album is so streamed is just so impressive to me. That's so cool. It's called Mind-Altering Substance. Every song is, I believe I saw his Instagram that he like studied psychology or pre-med or something So he has an extensive knowledge of the brain and so every song is meant to evoke like some sort of brain sensation Really cool. Yeah, that's as well I like I like this sort of style of like like these Indian artists like he's using his background with like You know studying the brain his background with like, you know, studying the brain, his music, then like, you know, when that dude, Hanuman Kind,

had that fucking track blow up over the summer. Like, I'm like, it makes sense for a guy with a finance background to then be rapping like on some baller shit. He's like, well, obviously I stay with finance, so I'm gonna learn how to stunt that music. And Hanuman Kind is from Houston as well, so that's cool. Right.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. No, I think there's definitely, I think they're on their way, well on their way. Yeah. Is that why so many rappers are endorsing Trump now? Is it because of that connection between finance and rap music? Maybe. Well, let me say Hanuman Tine got in trouble for performing for Narendra Modi,

who is the Trump of India. Like if Narendra Modi is like if you took Donald Trump and made him like 100 times worse. And like everyone was kind of like, hey, like your music is literally about like one of your lyrics. This ain't this ain't hip hop, bro. Yeah, yeah, exactly. I mean, um, the India rap scene is really cool, actually.

So Devine, or Devine, I forget how it's pronounced, is one of the big rappers to make Indian rap mainstream. What happened is there's something called the caste system in India. People who are born lower caste are just kind of cast to the side by society. I mean, lower caste people are more likely to experience violence, more likely to experience like police brutality and stuff. And so rap was kind of a very serious art form

in Dharavi, which is the slums of Mumbai. And so a lot of these rappers came from the slums of Mumbai because they were talking about like all of the discrimination that they face in their music. And the Indian rap songs are all in Hindi or Marathi, like their local languages. But you can really hear the sounds of how Black American hip hop, you know, inspired Indian rap.

And then Indian rap hit the world stage when the Bollywood movie Gully Boy, starring Ranveer Singh. Ranveer Singh is like this heartthrob in India that everyone's obsessed with. And the movie and the soundtrack were both produced by Nav. And so that's really cool that Nav, who was like a pioneer of rap music in the United States, then decided to go to India and help them like make the art of rap mainstream there as well. And so to kind of become a famous rapper,

and he, you know, he's from Houston, but he got signed to an Indian music label. Like he was producing rap in India, but to then like go and perform for Narendra Modi, everyone was like, come on, dude, like this is not what the art form of, and like, you know, what rap is about. Oh, what's oh, really?

All the great hip hop artists perform for their shitty leaders. Look, in America, you have Nelly and Snoop Dogg. Yeah, exactly. You know what I mean? Yeah, Snoop was on fuck down Trump and he's out here performing for. Yeah, yeah. I mean, let me say the vibe shift between 2016 and 2024 is like insane. Like Oscar de la Renta dressed at Usher Vance and all those big fashion houses were like protesting in 2016. They were

like, we're not dressing the Republicans. Now all of them are dressing the Republicans. So crazy to see. We're going to see some long ass ties on the runways this year. You guys in trouble by the way, for talking politics? No, no, no, no. It's kind of what we do. No, you've, like you said, you've listened to this show. We've, we've done all, we get ourselves in trouble. I mean, let me say like Indian politics is like so controversial.

So I'm so sorry in advance if I get you death threats because of this. Oh no. Well, the music side of it, I will say this is exactly what I look for when we have somebody on who is young enough to be my daughter. It's cool to be put onto like a new world of music that I knew nothing about. So thank you for that. That's very cool. Yeah, of course.

Wait, am I young enough to be your, you did say that you had a son. I do. Yeah. I've got two of them and 38. What? Yeah, they're 38 years old. But yeah, you're technically, I mean, yeah, 44 and you're 22, right? I'm 27.

27. You're 22 when you did the Emily and Paris. Emily and Paris. Sorry, I got that number in my brain. Yeah. My brain don't work so good now on account of the 44. 17. Yeah, still possible. What is something you think is overrated?

I mean, it's not overrated. It's like decidedly not overrated. I just haven't watched Separance yet. So I just like feel left out when people are talking about it. But now it's like everywhere. People are like, oh, I checked in the Lumont. My Audi is like this. My Indy is like this.

And I'm like, I got to just get, you know, I got to just get Apple TV. But the thing is, like with every other streaming service, I just like text my friends, like, Hey, can I have your password? But I guess Apple TV is the one that they make it pretty hard to share. Like you have to like, you really have to get your own face. Yeah. So you got to use Apple TV to FaceTime somebody and watch it off their TV and they'll FaceTime it in.

Yeah. Yeah. Easy. Yeah. Yeah. Easy. Yeah. That's actually the best way. So Apple TV I think is overrated, but I should, I should get it. Like it's the only reason it's overrated to me is because I don't have it. And you know, everyone's Ted Lasso didn't work on me.

Like everyone was like watching and obsessed with Ted Lasso. And I was like, and I survived Ted Lasso in the sense that like I went through that press cycle and I didn't get Apple TV. So I was like, man, if a TV show is gripping and genuineness had last, so it doesn't get me to sign up for Apple TV. They lost me truly. But Severance, my friends live and die by Severance. I have not heard a single negative thing about Severance.

So that's going to be the one that gets me. Yeah. I feel like they're, yeah, I, I generally am like a month late at least on shit like this. So I'll like let it happen. And then if, if people are like, oh, that actually they like stuck the landing and everything's good, but you do miss out on the highs and lows of everybody. Yeah.

They were like, that last episode sucked. It ruined the thing. And then like everybody. Yeah, they were like, that last episode sucked, it ruined the thing. Then the next episode, they're like, they actually redeemed the last episode. We're back, we're so fucking back. We're so back, Audis. Yeah, I prefer to wait until a show is out completely. Because I remember when my friends were really into Severance in 2022,

and then they had to wait three years for season two. I would much rather just sit down and watch it all at once, then go through it with everyone else. Yeah. Especially it has a mystery box element to it where it's like Lost. I feel like Lost really shaped me in this way. I quit on Lost, I think it was the second episode of season two. I was like,

oh, they actually don't know what they're doing. Like they don't know the answer to all the questions that I want answers to. And I was right for that. So now I will quit on a show so fast. I will just, I'm the most die easy fan in the world when it comes to TV shows. I was like, let, let it go. Yeah. Is too precious. But yes, everyoneance really having a moment right now. Yeah.

Is it, are we done with the season or is it still coming out? It's still coming out. God damn. Yeah. I will say the first season was, I think, one of the better seasons of TV that I've seen. So, shout out to Severance. Shout out to Severance.

Miles, to your point, the filmmaker, Ben Stiller has said the way that it's intended to be watched is via FaceTime with a friend showing you their screen on FaceTime. And then go, okay, you see it? Well, you want to turn it up? All right, hold on. Yeah. I mean, it's all about sharing. D. Ben Stiller? Like Zoolander Ben Stiller? Yeah. He's the director of, uh, some of them. Oh, crazy.

I think he directs most of the episodes, right? He's definitely like the creator and directed some of them, like including the pilot. Good to know. Okay. See? I'll watch it. You'll see a lot of Zoolander in there. Yeah.

Yeah. A lot of it. He directed, what else did he do? Did he direct Zoolander? He directed Zoolander, Tropic Thunder, Reality Bites is a weird one. He directed Reality Bites, like the most 90s ass movie where they're just like, like whatever. Cable Guy. Yeah.

He directed Cable Guy. Wow. Yeah. Oh, wow. Yeah. All right. Let's take a quick break and we'll come back and we'll talk some news. We'll be right back.

And we're back. And the fallout from the Trump administration abandoning their partnership, their ally Ukraine has continued. It's just, it's not that popular. It's not that popular. Wow. I'm not that innocent in my head this morning

before we even started talking about. Why? Taking a shower and just singing to yourself. I just wake up with the randomest shit in my head. And I was also, I had an N SYNC song in my head this morning. Fucking weird. No, no rhyme or reason. I wasn't listening to N SYNC last night. It's just comes, comes up in my sleep. I like that you're saying that is if you were listening to N SYNC last night,

you're like, I was not listening at none of that, dude. I've, I've reading the allegations around me listening to N SYNC last night. That's not just me. Not listening at none of that, dude. I've, I've reading the allegations around me listening to NSYNC last night. Uh, that's not true. That should have spent a little more time on you, dude. So anyway, yeah, over the weekend, JD Vance woke up to a group of protestors near his home in Cincinnati that were again not pleased that he continues to be a skin bag made for regurgitating Kremlin

talking points especially when it talks about stuff in Ukraine and you know Trump is already freezing intelligence sharing with Ukrainians and you're like what the fuck is going on he's like but that's almost done because Zelensky did apologize but also Loki I am helping Putin let's not get it fucked up so but the fuck is going on? He's like, but that's almost done because Zelensky did apologize, but also Loki, I am helping Putin. Let's not get it fucked up. So, but he has to continue to act like there's this other struggle happening to sort of justify why he's trying to give Russia some kind of tactical advantage. But then a lot of Americans are still under this belief from the movies and the propaganda over the years that America stands with its allies.

You know, we stand with the same way we expect those allies to stand with us when we do illegal wars in the Middle East stand by us and we will stand by you. Of the willing. Yeah. Or coalition of the coerce. I don't know whatever it is. They got involved, sullied their images. Such a weak ass name too. The Coalition of the Willing.

Jesus, that's the best you get. They're willing to go along with this. Yeah. It's like, I know I invited like 70 people to my birthday party, but shout out to the three homies that came because your parents felt bad for me. I call us the Coalition of the Willing. They should have like gone with Coalition of the Rider Dies or something, but they went with Coalition of the Willing. They should have let go of Coalition of the Rider Dies or something,

but they want the Coalition of the Willing. Yeah. The Empire Bros. I think maybe that would have worked better. Empire Bros. But anyway, they weren't happy about what's happening with Russia or the America completely just doing a 180 on everything. JD Vance had an interaction with some of these people. This is how he described his interaction with some protesters.

Quote, today while walking my three-year-old daughter. Huh? Walking my three-year-old daughter? Okay, a group of- He said that? Yeah, this is a tweet that he put out. He lets her off leash, so it's actually not as bad as it sounds. Yeah, yeah, she's like, when they're-

She doesn't even need it. When they get to the park, she's left. That's how we talk about Indian people in general. He thinks that Indian people need to be sounds. Yeah, she's like when they're even needed. When they get to the park, she's like. That's how we talk about Indian people in general. He thinks that Indian people need to be walked. Yeah. You know? Yep. They always like to walk at night. I don't know what's going on. Yeah. But anyway, he goes, I was stopped by a group of Slava Ukrainian protesters and they followed us around and shouted as my daughter grew increasingly anxious and scared. I decided to speak with the protesters in the hopes that I could trade a few minutes of conversation for them leaving my toddler alone. Nearly all of them agreed. It was a mostly respectful conversation, but if you're chasing a three-year-old as part of a political protest, you're a shit person."

Uh-huh. He kind of let me just say, can I say, he tweets like so millennial. I don't know how to explain it. Like, you're a shit person. Like the other day, he tweeted something like, today I saw a half poodle, half German shepherd. And I have some questions, like so millennial. And I was like, bro, you are the vice president of the United States.

I'm gonna need you to start acting like it. So anyway, like you are a shit person. I'm gonna need you to start acting like it. So anyway Yeah, yeah, he treated that right before like going into the Oval Office meeting with the linsky I'm gonna need some answers on this poodle mix that I'm sorry, but after that's a linsky meeting his Slytherin was showing. Yeah, literally. What the fuck, fool? Shut up. But anyway, there is video. So first of all, a few things about this protest. The people that were protesting near his house were kept very far away because he's

the fucking vice president. And there was a checkpoint to even enter his neighborhood. So these people were not even close to him getting his paper out in the front, as if he would do that and be suddenly stunned to see protesters. He was walking around and then as people were converging on it, he came across this group of people.

But like, again, even when he stands with them, he starts off just saying bullshit. He's like, you know, when he's talking about who the aggressor is or whatever, people are talking like, you can't stand with Russia. And he's like, I'm sorry, that's your understanding of what's happening here. And they're like, no'm sorry, that's your understanding of what's happening here. And they're like, no, no, that's a lie.

You're saying to our faces. He then goes on to be like, you guys are scaring my meat shield. Okay. I have to go and you guys need to fucking respect that. Let me just play this moment. You can mostly hear what he's saying, but it's a very interesting interaction given the way he describes that he was like chased away by a group of people who just wouldn't let leave his toddler alone.

to have people run around and yell at her. And I did talk to you and I said, if I talk to you for a few minutes, will you leave my three-year-old daughter alone? And you see this. And you're like, this is so unlikable. I was like, okay. Okay. God, you're just so unlikable.

And I think the whole thing around this, like, please just leave her alone. It's like, we're talking to you. No one's addressing your child. Yeah, literally. Stop yelling at my three-year-old daughter. Drop your daughter off at home. She is in physical proximity to me.

I did walk up to you with her, but yeah. I said I would talk. I could have just avoided it, but again, I don't know. He is doing that thing where he still thinks that maybe people on planet earth in real physical reality want to talk to him. Yeah. And he's just finding out very quickly.

You can't just say nonsense and have people go along with it. He does have that thing ugly guys do where They get a hot wife and they suddenly think they're like More palatable than they actually are Like we should have answer. She's spineless and I hate her but she's gorgeous like credit where credit is due And I just feel like she opt his stock because now he thinks that people enjoy being around him and that he has charm To some degree, you know? Right. He's like, yo, you see my wife, Usha, dude? Fuck, dude.

I'll never forgive her for co-signing him. That is... Yeah. This is a problem in that, like, I love Indian women. I love being an Indian woman. I take so much pride in my Indian heritage. I do think that some of us hold, like too easy for like a mid ugly Republican dude. I think we should advance legitimizing JD Vance by marrying just like a trainwrap all around.

And now they have three Wajian kids who are going to make being half Indian their entire personality for the rest of their lives. You know, I feel bad for these kids because whether it's him taking his like toddler daughter around and being like, you wouldn't yell at a man with a baby, would you for saying all the wrong things in public like Usha Vans hit a man with glasses. Usha Vans also now has like all these like public facing duties as the, you know, whatever that title is, the couches concubine or something. But the whole thing with like her in, she had to go to Turin for the opening of the special Olympics and like just seeing her like kind of walk around saying nothing, like she also took their son. This kid looks so fucking over it. Like again, I mean, he is a child.

Yeah, he is a kid. But I'm like, just leave it like, just let the kid fucking stay at home. Like you don't have to bring this kid. He doesn't want to go to fucking Italy to like whatever, do this and have a bunch of people yell about how America sucks at his mom who's only married. That's literally the only reason they bring their kids everywhere

is so that they can take the moral high ground of being like, you wouldn't yell at a girl with a kid, would you? It's like, yeah, I would actually. Yeah, exactly. She also can't leave him home because JD keeps trying to crate the kids. You know? Yeah. He does crate training.

Or yell at him for talking about Pokemon or something. It's like, they fucking do it. Then he goes on about Pokemon, Usha. You gotta take him with you to Turin. I can't. I'm gonna walk the three-year-old. Do we have the baggies for when she goes poo poo? I do have to shout out.

This does lend a little more weight to this podcast because apparently Trump listens. We found out over the weekend. So last weekend, Abby, I noted that Donald Trump seems like the person most destined to die on the toilet since Elvis himself. And this weekend, Donald Trump tweeted out a picture of himself side by side with Elvis and was like, a lot of people comparing me to Elvis. What do you think?

I think he was taking it as- of himself side by side with Elvis and was like, a lot of people comparing me to Elvis. What do you think? I think he was taking it as a comparison of their looks. Crazy shit. But I do just, he likes comparing himself to like Martin Luther King Jr. Oh my God. So Donald Trump listens to your podcasts? He must, right?

Yes. Yes. I mean, huge fan. He sounds like any podcaster now. It's like, no, the president summoned me here. He's talking to me. I do think he nailed it with this one though. Like I, like he, you know, I think less, less worthy of the George Washington comparisons and the Martin Luther King Jr. comparisons,

but Elvis, I feel like their sweet spot being people who spend 50% of their gross income on commemorative plates and coins, they share some DNA. They're both, Elvis and him are both like anti-drug, anti-drinking people who were like fucking are just like riddled with prescription medication abuse. And yeah, I think the one difference is that like Trump probably would be happier as a Vegas performer, you know, if you just could just get up

and riff, whereas like Elvis was a Vegas performer and like wanted to be the, like he went and visited Nixon and like handed him a golden fucking revolver. Like he was a character in that Jack Handy joke, but also like was like, I'll go undercover and I'll fucking rat out. Oh, you'll go undercover. Most famous entertainer at the moment. Okay. Yes, please go undercover.

Wearing a cape handed Nixon a golden revolver. Nixon looked fucking terrified, but yeah. So they're just like the same in many ways, but they just ended up at like different places than I think Trump at least different places than he should have. I think in like 99% of the timelines, he's just in Vegas right now dying a slow death, like going up on stage and singing the standards and riffing about how Robert Pattinson is hot and needs to like ditch whatever girl he's dating right now. He's dating at the time. That's so funny. He's doing residency at the dome.

Yes, exactly. Just doing the YMCA over and over and over again. It's like 36 minutes straight listening party. Also, both of their appeal about racism, you know, in many ways. In many ways, a lot of people are saying we're basically the same. I also, I too stole rock and roll from the blacks. Did you? Yes. Yes, I did.

I did. And I'm doing it well. Yeah, he really would. I think he, he just want, I picture like, do you remember in Kingpin, like the Bill Murray's character, Big Earn, McCracken, like how he's just like wearing a gaudy outfit and like random women would come up to him and give him a kiss. And he's like, okay,racken. He's just wearing a gaudy outfit and random women would come up to him and give him a kiss. He's like, okay, babe, okay.

Thanks so much. That is the world that he's trying to live in. That was the wildest shit about that Elvis movie was the part where he's in Vegas and he just keeps making out with all of his fans. Every woman who comes up, he insists on fully kissing them on the mouth. Oh shit. Yeah.

What, babe? What their fans, this is what they expect from me. Oh my God. Well, you know, anyways, we'll see. Just lay off the cheeseburgers, man. Just lay off the cheeseburgers. I know. That's just the most impacted bowels in the history of human GI tract.

That's so funny. All right, let's take a quick break and we'll come back. And we're back. We're back. And we're back. We're back. And we're back. And just real quick, there's been a lot of people noting that Tesla not been doing great. His shares, which is like the majority of his wealth, like the stock price of Tesla has been plummeting. It's the longest losing streak for Tesla in its 15 years as a public company. All right. And his net worth has fallen by $102 billion

since he took office, I guess, even though he's not a politician. But yeah, it's not just because of his relationship with Trump. After supporting the far right AFD party in Germany, Tesla registrations reportedly fell by 76% even as electric vehicle registrations rose by 31%. So that was unpopular in Germany for some reason. That and like the AFD party is, are the ones who were like, can we let this Nazi stuff rest you guys? Like, yeah, okay. We made a mistake, but let's like, we don't need to make it. I think legitimately he was like, they don't

need to like make it their whole identity. Jeez. Just like fucking. You don't have to make it a thing that you're reckoning with that terrible period in your country's history. Be like America, just shove it down, ignore it, and then let it re. And then it just comes out as involuntary, aggressive Nazi salutes. Yeah, just convulsing. It's out of control of his own fucking limbs like Dr. Strangelove. This whole shit though too, and it's like, oh, his net worth fell by 102 billion. It's like, it makes all this shit seem so abstract. Like, what are these people's like?

It's like a batting average. I'm like, okay, I don't know. You bat 305. Yeah. Huh? I guess really we should always have a value. How much can they pull up right now with straight cash? I'm tired of this.

Probably a lot. Yeah. That's what I want to know how liquid people are. That's what that all this other stuff is too abstract. Unless he lost literally 102, like he's like, oh, my 102 billion dollars is gone. Then I'm not going to take, I, it's just these sums of money are too vast and like sort of meaningless at a certain point. Yeah, like I'll never see that much money in this lifetime.

So why do I care if Elon lost it? Oh, I don't know, Abby. I think you're headed places. I think you might see 100 bills. That's why I feel like some of the stuff that you talk about in your comedy, maybe you could dial that back, because you might be a billionaire too one day.

You know what I mean? It's not true at all. Just think about it. If you keep creating great shows like Emily in Paris, it is Costa Rica's GDP is what he has lost since taking office. That sounds like a bad thing that one fuck bag has that just generally folks. I think we got to really, I'm glad we're poisoning the brand of Tesla and the next station here for this train is to poison the just whole concept of billionaires fully, please.

Yeah. Yeah. I think there was an article in like the New Yorker or something that was like, I knew that like, it would be a handful of men that would dismantle our democracy. I just didn't expect them to be such fucking losers. Yeah. And I was like, that is so true. The. Yeah. It's so true. Like, Elon just gives the vibes of that guy that you didn't give a chance to in high school, who like makes it his whole personality to like prove you wrong when like most normal people just like move on, you know.

Right. Right. Yeah. And Elon was not, I mean, like I've never liked Elon, but he was not this distinctly right way. He refused to continue working with Donald Trump in 2017 when Donald Trump pulled out of the Paris climate accords. Like, bad. I believe he called him a fucking idiot. He came to the White House and was like, uh, yeah, there, there's reporting from the time where he, he called

him and his administration a bunch of fucking idiots. But yeah, not, not so. I mean, he definitely, I think like, I don't know, I feel like one of the early signs was the kids in the Thai cave. And then he got upset at the guy for saying a submersible wasn't going to like work to save them. He's like, well, you're a pedophile. And we're like, what the f- All right, dude. Here we go. Let him go. He's out of here, folks. He's gone. In addition to the financial woes, Tesla has become a target for protests. This past week, Tesla charging stations have been set on fire. Tesla lots have been shot at. Although that just might be, if that's in America, that just might be standard stray gunfire where we need to find out. And one dealership in Manhattan was occupied by hundreds of nonviolent protesters.

And again, not just a US phenomenon in Berlin, a construction site for the expansion of a Tesla factory was set on fire, which police are investigating as arson. And in Milan, protesters chained and glued themselves to cars at a Tesla store. And as we talked about, as we talked about last week, uh, we are continuing our protest of every time we see a cyber truck, just giving him a sadge thumbs down. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. A lot of that.

I'm glad that, yeah, I was just in LA and every time my friend saw a cyber truck should be like, ill, and I'd be like, wow,. This is one of my friends who's not very politically involved at all. I was like, wow, the Tesla brand has completely been poisoned. They were just like, no, I just don't like the design. It is an ugly car, the Cybertruck specifically. It's not great. It's truly an aesthetic argument for me. Yeah. I mean, there's also like, there was another picture too. I saw, I think from Chicago with all these cops protecting a Tesla dealership. And I'm like, dude, if you, if we needed like more indication of like what this

all looks like, like truly just in your face, be like, and now the cops are here to protect Elon Musk's toy store. Yeah. Toy store. Yeah. Property over everything. Yeah. All right.

And finally, we still haven't seen Mickey 17, but it did come out. I'm excited to see it. It was number one. I'm really excited to see it. I know. It looks so cool. He doesn't miss. And like even when it's like not my favorite movie, Bong Joon-ho, it's like very interesting.

Yeah. I think that he always has something interesting to say, and I haven't even seen the movie, but it seems to be about the disposability of workers in a capitalist system. Yeah. How Amazon and all of these large corporations treat the human life as very disposable. I loved Parasite,

but I will say that when Parasite came out in 2019, everyone was like floored by like the class commentary. I was very like, like I loved Parasite, don't get me wrong, but I grew up watching Indian movies, specifically South Indian movies. Like there's each region of India has a different, has its own version of Hollywood. Bollywood is the most famous. It's like the North Indian one. But I never watched very many Bollywood movies. I'm South Indian, so I watched a lot of Hollywood movies.

Bollywood is the South Indian Bollywood, which is the Indian Hollywood. A lot of those movies are a lot of class commentary. I think Asian cinema as a whole is just light years ahead of Western cinema. I'm just so grateful that Bong Joon-Ho has chosen to share his talents with the Hollywood audience. I'm firmly of the belief that more Asian cinematographers need to, they don't need to. They would be doing us a favor by transitioning over to Hollywood,

because I just love everything that Bong Joon-Ho does, and so I'm really excited to see Mickey 17. Yeah, that's really well put. Yes, US cinema has a tough time with class, I feel like. They'll have class conflict, but then it's got to end with the people overcoming class conflict. Right.

Of course. Yeah. I think the reason in Asian countries, the population is so much bigger. There's less government regulation. And this isn't me being like, oh, America is better. And by any ways, but I think when I go to India to visit family, it's really undeniable to, the poverty is there for you to see.

The types of poverty that exist in Asian countries you wouldn't even think existed in 2025 unless you saw it with your own eyes and so I think of course it makes sense that the film industries in these countries would be a lot more head-on and a lot more ahead of the curve about addressing the class messages like in their movies and I just loved everything that Parasite had to say. I think part of the reason it's not in people's face or they don't see it is because Hollywood movies and TV shows are like, we don't want to show poor people. Like poverty.

Yeah, poverty. Exactly. No, thank you. This blogger will live in a $3 million apartment in Manhattan. Thank you very much. Yeah. Yeah. Impossible place for them to live. I mean, I think so much of it too is like all of our American storytelling is to sort of distract from all of the inequality and oppression.

Yeah. You know what I mean? And in Asian cinema, it's like confronting it always. Yeah. And so like even to your point, Jack, like even when there is a bit of class tension, it's like, and at the end of the day, the rich white woman understood the woman of color a little bit. And then they got over it and they just got back to it. You know what I mean?

They just got back to doing it. It's so funny because it's so true. Yeah. It's just like that's what the Rocky franchise started as like a cinema verity thing about like a poor boxer. And it ends with him being like a fucking millionaire who like beating the common war. Beating up the communists.

I've never seen the Rocky movies. Is that actually how it ends? Yeah, I mean, Rocky IV. Beating the communists? Yeah. So first one, he's like a poor down-as-luck boxer who like grits it out and almost wins a big fight, but love conquers all in the end.

The second one, he wins against the guy who beat him in the first one and becomes world champion. The third one, he's like a millionaire celebrity. And the fourth one, he owns a robot. He drives a Lamborghini for a 15-minute Lamborghini montage, and then goes to Russia and fights a Russian robot guy who's on all the steroids and stuff, and just beats him with pure American pluck while wearing red, white, and blue American flag trunks. That is crazy. I should watch this movie.

It's amazing. It's a great thing for introducing the idea of there might be some ideas and political content behind these movies. Watching that as even an eight-year-old, you're like, huh. Yeah. A little heavy-handed. Yeah. But anyways, the movie didn't do great at the box office, Mickey 17. It was number one.

It did cost $118 million to make. People are like, it's not a success. But I do just want to note that coming out this weekend is Electric State new movie from, again, the Rousseau brothers who made the Avengers movies. They also made the gray man. That was like two, $200 million.

And, uh, this one stars Millie Bobby Brown and Chris Pratt. And it. Cost $320 million to make. And like not even like, I don't feel like I've seen that much marketing for it. So it's not like they, like they spent $320 million on the, it's as great. That's the pre-marketing cost, but that's right. Yeah. Oh my God.

And it is being called by IndieWire, quote, joyless and an argument for letting the movies die, which is not what we want to see. This is so fucked up, dude. argument for letting the movies die, which is not what we want. This is so fucked up, dude. It's, it's these gigantic $320 million swings that end up drying out and destroying all the smaller productions that keep Los Angeles alive or just the industry in general alive. Like there's such a lack of work right now.

And it's cause they're doing shit like spending $ hundred twenty million dollars on whatever the fuck the electric state is that sounds like some fucked up description of like Elon Musk's takeover of like the United States government yeah it's like welcome to the electric state yeah Chris Pratt spectacular adventure yeah Chris Pratt yeah rarely steers us wrong Chris Pratt you lost the streetsers us wrong. Chris Pratt. You lost the streets, bro. That's what happens when you lose the streets. You know what I mean? It's true.

That rarely steers us wrong. I feel like if I see Chris Pratt in a movie, I'm like, oh, I mean, Jurassic World movies are so joyless. Like what you're talking about with three of my favorite movies right now. No, he's joking. I'm joking. I'm joking. I'm joking. He's joking.

I like Passengers. He was like a weird character in Passengers. Why would you wake a woman up? Why would you bother her like that? All right. He woke a woman up against her will, just because he's so bored and lonely. I do. Let me say I do love the Guardians of the Galaxy's movies. Yeah, he does. That is in his lane.

Yeah. Well, Abby, it's been such a pleasure having you on the Daily Zyte. This is so fun. Where can people find you and follow you and all that good stuff? See you. I'm on Instagram. I'm on Twitter against my better judgment, I'm on YouTube and I'm on TikTok.

Um, I, my solo show is going off Broadway next week. Yeah. From March 19 through 22nd. I'm doing four nights, five shows at the Soho Playhouse, which is a very historic off Broadway venue. And I'm so proud of the solo show that I've put together. It's the story of how I told my parents that I wanted to be a stand-up comedian,

how our relationship fell apart because of it, and how we built our relationship back up together after my brief sit in a mental hospital following a suicide attempt. And I just am really proud of the storytelling. My director, Greg Wallach, is just so immensely talented once he signed on.

It was just elevated to something new and spectacular. And I feel like I set out to change the conversation with this show in terms of how we talk about immigrant parents, how we talk about parents in general, how we talk about ourselves and the pursuit of art, and granting kind of everyone grace as most people are just figuring life out for the first time. And I think I achieved that goal. Like I've, you know, performed this show like 50, 60 times now across the world to thousands of people. And I love meeting and most recently

I was in Los Angeles and like these two sisters brought their parents to the show and so many people tell me that they bring their like so many people bring their parents to the show. And so many people tell me that it started a lot of important conversations at home about like mental health and about the pursuit of something other than you know traditional routes and I am really proud of the show that I've put together. This moment where I'm going off-Broadway next week feels like the culmination of like three years almost of hard work. And I'm just so excited. Um, Hassan Minaj is presenting it.

Daniel Sloss is producing it to amazing groundbreaking comedians who shaped me as a comedian, both of them are storytelling stand-up comedians. They don't ever really just do like hours of comedy. They do hours of comedy with through lines where they talk about themselves and their own reflections. I feel like their existence and success paved the way for someone like me to come and tell my story. Everything about this moment just feels so full circle and perfect and amazing, and I am so excited to share it with the world.

It sounds amazing. Yeah. Thank you. Because I gang make sure you get out there. Yeah. Is that gang? Yeah. Full of New York site gang.

Yeah, no, they're out here. They're out here. Where can, uh, is there a work of media that you've been enjoying? Yeah, I have been binging a lot of TV shows, although, you know, now that you ask me, I'm like completely forgetting. Oh, let me tell you this. One of so there's three charity partnerships for the off Broadway and one of them is the Orr Foundation. And the Orr Foundation just released a Netflix documentary called By Now. And it's about the West, it's about the world, but mostly the West's tendency

to overconsume and how all of these websites, like Amazon, TikTok, Instagram, are now incentivized to sell us things that we don't need. But one thing that we forget with all of this marketing is that everything that we've ever thrown away in our lives, so me, you guys, like everything from the moment we're born that we have used and thrown away is not gone. It's just somewhere else on the planet.

And so the documentary, By Now, traces a lot of, so a lot of the clothes that we throw away in the West, like in the United States and the UK, it ends up actually washed up on the shores of Ghana in these gigantic, gigantic, gigantic chemical clothing mountains. And by now, as a documentary, it's meant to raise awareness about how our overconsumption in the West really affects developing countries mostly

and how we can make the conscious decision to consume less, to de-influence ourselves from the latest makeup trend, ownership trend, what have you, that they're trying to sell us on TikTok, Instagram, and just reminding ourselves that we really don't need anything more than what we need. There you go. That's great.

Very cool. Miles, where can people find you? Is there work in media you've been enjoying? Yeah, yeah, no, it's the consumption thing. I saw the trailer for that documentary. I was like, Oh, this is going to be really good. And then I lost all my things and I was like, all right, I already get the point.

Yeah. But you can find me everywhere. They have ad symbols at miles of gray. You can find jacket on the basketball podcast miles and Jack on America boosties. You can find me talking 90 day fiance on four 20 day fiance. Check that out every week. And yeah, let me see a thing I like from internet,

at internet hippo. What's that thing you like from internet? Thing I like from internet is this, mocking Elon. It says, yeah, we're doing cancel culture, canceling government contracts. Oh, parenthetical, people start protesting my garbage cars. This is illegal under the laws of man and God. Thanks, buddy.

I like to tweet from Ronnie there, Ron we underscore on Twitter who tweeted. It's so funny that when they were inventing hockey, one guy was like, Hey, what if we had a jail? Like, I love your soccer on ice idea, but what do you think about jail? A little jail for bad people in reference to the penalty box, which is a fun little bit. That's funny.

And also like from Rod at Rodimus Prime on Twitter who tweeted Sterling K. Brown got to be the most ripped for no reason ass actor on the planet. But he just got the 12 pack abs, but taking roles where he plays the head of HR at a greeting card company. I like that category of. Oh, can I share one of my favorite tweets? Yeah, yes, please. Oh, my God. Wait, this is one that I just saved to my phone because I was like, this is so funny.

I'm sure you guys have seen it too. Walking around in public sober every single one of these people is uglier and dumber than the last. They must have let mongrel school out early. Walking around cooked. There is beauty in every soul. There is misspelled. And I was like that's so funny. From James at Fearing420 on Twitter. Nice. Fearing420. Man, after my own heart.
