In episode 1999, Jack and Miles think it's the 2000th episode... that is all.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Three, two, one. Shit. Why Victor say shit. Fuck this up. Fuck. I minimize my Zoom on accident. People don't know. Every day before we record, we do a count in in a British accent.

And here we are at the 2000th episode. 2000. And there's so much they don't know, but that goes on behind the scenes. So much they don't know. Miles doing a pitch perfect British. accent, free to one. Free to one. And then Victor,

well, there's a lot you can say about Super Producer Victor's British accent. He's doing one of the pirates. The guy who is the Hello puppet. It's always Elop puppet. It's Pirates of the Caribbean. It's Hello puppet coated.

Hello puppet coded. It's very hello, hello puppet. I always thought it was Elo Muppet. Hello puppet. It's Poppet. fucking Muppets weren't invented back then. Puppets, puppets, puppets, whatever.

We've got 2,000 episodes now. This is the sort of thing that I should be better at by 2,000 episodes. Hey, guys, sorry, sorry. We just checked. It's not 2000. It's 1999. But we, what are you talking about? Like, we were one episode off.

So it's... We've been this for weeks. It's 1,999. Wait, don't you remember the meeting, Victor, where we looked at a calendar and we were moving our finger on each day and go, it'd be 99, 2000, and we fucked up the count. And granted, I was the one counting. Maybe that's our first. No, no, no, that's capital. I'm pretty sure we got it right.

Justin. Justin is the keeper of the count. No, Victor's dropped, bro. Justin, tell me this is the, tell me this is episode 2000. Why do I put the description in the episode every morning if you're not going to include that in your... I thought that was a joke. I thought it was 1999 as a joke. What is it?

It says in episode 1,998. And today we'll say... Today it will say... In episode 2,000 in there. No. No. No. And we'll say, I'm going to put in 1999.

Yeah. Yeah. Well, look, that's fine. That's fine. Because the memory is still the same. We don't have a guest today. We did no guess because we're doing in 2000 episodes. But that's fine.

1999 is also, that's fucking major, bro. Oh, my God. Yeah. This is so us. This is so us. This is an I-Heart podcast. Guaranteed human. 1969

Digs into the moments, perspectives, and experiences that don't always make the textbook. Let me tell you about Garrett Morgan. Brough had to pretend he didn't even exist just to sell his own invention. Listen to I didn't know. Maybe you didn't either from the Black Effect Podcast Network on the Guy Hard Radio app, Apple Podcast, or simply wherever you get your podcast. This is Ryder Strong, and I have a new podcast called The Red Weather. In 1995, my neighbor and a trainer disappeared from a commune.

Those nature and trees and praying and drugs. So no, I am not your guru. And back then, I lied to everybody. They have had this case for 30 years. I'm going back to my hometown to uncover the truth.

Hello, the internet, and welcome to season 424, episode two of Dernelie's Akeyes!

Yeah! It's a production of IHart Radio. Let me just get the count here. Yeah, that's episode 2000. Yeah, baby. Pinpoint accuracy. I'm strong and wrong. Yeah.

It was my motto. Look, it's a special, it's a celebration, 2,000 episodes, and maybe we were off by one. But who knows, there's so many, it's impossible to actually know. Well, at the very least, we do know, we've recorded well over 2,000 episodes generally. So, the point remains. Also, our counting of the episodes, we just decided at a certain point that the Monday morning episode, that's basically a full episode, would not count. So we've been only counting four per week.

Look, people don't need to know how this second-rate show is right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm preparing my speech for, I really, you know, was talking this up to my kids, and now I'm going to have to come clean with them. Yep. Just like when you said Vernon Maxwell was going to be on your basketball podcast. And who didn't show up? Oh, yeah, you're getting a look behind the scenes.

Yeah. Jesus Christ. 2000. Tuesday, February 2nd, 2026. We're not doing the news today. We're taking a look back. This is a chance for us to completely disappear up our own asses and talk about the daily zeitgeist.

My name is Jack O'Brien, aka Jack off-hand motion, Brian. The O is for off-hand motion in Irish names. That's what the O'Stan stands for. That's courtesy of Lackaroni, who is aiming to replace potatoes, O'Brien, with a new one. I kind of like jack off-hand motion, Brian. Jack off-hand motion. So I don't know.

We'll see if it sticks. They were like, potatoes are Brian's what he says when he thinks they're, aka suck shit. That's not true. It's what I say when I haven't had time to... That or, yeah, you're questioning your singing voice. Yeah, yeah, yeah. My vocal warm-ups that morning.

My appointment with my vocal coach has not gone as, planned. Yeah. And so I mean, truth be told, some of the AKs are so good. They're intimidating because the amount of work that's put in, I certainly don't want to end up half-assing it because there's definitely times where I've done a few, a few takes of an AK. I'm like, no, Justin, hold on, hold on.

I have the timing right. I have the timing right. Have you really? Oh, yeah. You know that. Especially when I had ones with instrumentals. You're kind of a one-take miles. No, no, no, no.

No, that's very kind of you. That's very kind of you. I'm sure to be joined, as always, by my co-host, Mr. Miles Gray. It's Miles Gray. It's a. It's a kid. Look, shout out to everybody who's given A.Ks from the beginning. You know what I mean?

Shout out to Zikeg. And we're going to list every single one of them right now. All right, guys. That's the 17-hour episode. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. A lot of great ones out there. Christy Yamaguchi, Maine. You know, like, Hanaramic View.

One of the OGs? Anaramic View early days. Back in the Hannah-Soltist days. Yeah, yeah. We remember. Too many to mention. We'll go through. We'll go through and give our AKA flowers out later.

Then that's what I'll be frantically looking up for the rest of this episode. But yeah, this is, we're looking back talking about the show. This is not something we've done before. I'm bad at this sort of thing. Because first of all, when people give me compliments, as you may know, Miles, I'm intensely uncomfortable with that. They do a bad job. Yeah. I should just say,

you. You always say fucking liar. I'm like, that's, maybe we can just not say anything. Who's this guy? Who's this guy? Who's this guy?

Who's this guy working for? One of the many vocal stems. And also at a certain point when you record this many episodes, it just becomes an ocean of memories. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That I just feel like that it's,

it's all one continuous thing. Right. So it's hard for me to differentiate. So we are using our listeners to help jog our memories. We put out the call, Super Producer Bay, put out a call asking for your favorite memories from the first 2,000 episodes. And also asking for your favorite memories from the next 2,000 episodes, some predictions that you might have. And so that helped jog the memory. And this was a very fun experience to kind of go back through.

True. I mean, like, to your point, we do this so much without thinking about how often we're doing it, that being able to hear from the listeners what really stuck with them has been actually so much nicer than I thought. I was like, oh, I'm going to have a really fun, like, laugh going, like, looking back at all these, like, funny moments we've had. But so much of what you guys wrote was, like, so sincere and so genuine about how this show's, brought you closer to people, given you community and these other things. That shit is so touching for me to read. But also, like, it is great, too when some of you guys remember some shit that I thought was, like, so stupid and I completely forgot about. And then multiple people like, this thing, I remember that. Yeah. Um, which is, yeah, that helps. That helps. All the really nice things. And we're not going to, like, read all the, all the really nice comments because I wouldn't be able to, like, my constitution would break down. Yeah. But, and also because I, I still haven't figured out who you're working for and why, who paid you to say those nice

things. But yeah, it was truly special to kind of look back and read through all of these. We're not going to have time to get to the hundreds of kind of memories that people shared and really hundreds of nice things. But I did get a chance to read through them all and deeply, deeply appreciated. Yeah, yeah. And look, I only got called out a couple of couple times. I appreciate that. And that's one thing I appreciate about, I appreciate about Zike Gang. All are honest. Yeah. And also allow me to take information in. But overall, my God,

there's so many things. It's like, how do we even, at first, like, man, we'll just read some of the best ones. But there were so many good ones. It was more just like we began to see patterns emerge in what everyone was talking about. And I think maybe that's really what this episode is about, to is realizing, understanding the lore. The lore of daily zeitgeist. And like what fits, what, what,

what has reached the lore of daily zeitgeist? Yeah. And I mean, I will say, speaking of guests, first and foremost, I'm a comedy fan. And I get to do a podcast every day with, first of all, one of the funniest people doing it, Miles Gray. Whoa. And then just, shout out to the producers.

Shout out to Super Producer Victor, who books our guests and has our calendar booked out. And Ana Hosnier, day one, booking the guests, putting together this amazing kind of community of performers that this show has been built on. Foundational. Yeah.

That was the foundation. And they are a massive, important part of the show that, as we're going to get to it, we'll get to hear from a couple of them later. As always, we did this very last minute. So it was,

it was the people who were willing to turn a voice memo around in 48 hours. Yeah, we're like, oh, well, yeah, we were trying to like, do we get everyone on? Not everyone could get on. Can we get a voice memo last minute? Yep, yep. Some obliged, most obliged, most obliged. But, yeah, again, I think, like, just from the top, right? I think even before, like you were saying, you were mentioning the producers, the show started

with Jack and I and Anna and Nick Stumpf, who was like, that was the first, that was the very first iteration of this show. And Jack and I used to pour over like transcripts. Yeah. And Jan McNatt, who's been writing, researching for the show from the start. He's the, besides Miles and I, the most consistent ingredient that's been in the show since day one,

writer from the cracked days, great researcher, which, you know, you might have noticed a fair bit of Canadian propaganda slipping into the show. He's from Toronto. I feel like Canadians, though, always have the best takes on America to be.

Oh, always. Yeah. They're also our funniest Americans. Yes. Um, our Canadians. And I got to feel like that Toronto flared, like, we, we had some amazing live shows around America, but that, that Toronto was the last last show we did was crazy. And that again, another theme that has come up. And I, Jack and I have been

talking about this a lot. Like, no, we need to, we need to get back out there. It's been fucking five, fucking six years now at this point. Yeah, yeah, I think, I think it's ready. Now that the guy's child is a little bit older. People don't even realize I've been on HGH for five years and you've gotten three rounds of hair plugs. You think this next one's going to take. This one actually won't get rejected by my body, I hope. Graph versus host, I believe is what the ailment is called. That's right. But yeah, like again, Nick, Anna, JM, then DJ Dannell took over on the editing and gave us

some of the most memorable sound drops of all time. A lot of y'all shouted out the World Cup date when that first happened and Dan will drop that fucking EDM track on us out of nowhere. And Jack and I were like, giddy, like sincerely so pumped up that we had a little sound drop. I will just say, but about the early days, just to date this shit, we recorded the first episode in a we work. Yeah, yeah. In August. In August of 2017, and we did multiple, multiple test episodes to like,

really get this thing because we wanted people to be like, oh, yeah, this is second rate. They're not even trying at all by the time we did the first episode that came out. These guys don't give a fuck at all. Yeah. But yeah. So in a we work. God, what a bygone fucking concept. Guys, we were at a we work.

That's right. Okay, trying to get the gym room in a we work drinking fucking cucumber water. Yeah, it's delicious. Having weird interactions with people out in a lot of weird fake startups. A lot of fake startups were going on there. But, yeah, should we get into some of the lore? I wanted to start with maybe some things.

I just want to shout out the crew first because I don't want to. Let's go through the- Nothing exists without everybody that worked on that show. The genealogy of zeitgeist. So DJ Dannell, boom. Okay. Then we got Justin, the God MC, DJ, also a DJ. Because after DJ Dano said, the next person who edits the main show has to be a DJ.

Yes. Thank God for Justin. So shout out Justin. Then Brian started doing the trending episodes. Yes. Brian Jeffries. Yes. Yes.

Is always in the chat. And a big part of the DNA of the show, producer Justin couldn't be a bigger part of the DNA of the show, making sure that we don't sound like idiots. And that's very hard because we are idiots. That is so fucking hard. It's a miracle. You cut out most of the idiotics, the bullshit that we say.

And then the producers we've had, DJ Dramos, Tricia McCurgy, Becara Ramos, Bay. We got Bay Wong. We got Victor Wright, producer, executive producer, Catherine Law. The hits keep coming.

And now that's the team now. So the team now is Victor, Justin, Justin, Catherine, Bay, Brian, J.M. That's right.

And that's us now. That's our family now. But shout out to everybody that was along the way because we learned a lot. So, without further ado, should we open up the gates

of the lore of the show. Yeah, I think so. And we're not, we're going to, there are some core pieces of lore that we're going to get to. They just kept coming up over and over again. Some of them were expected. Some of them I hadn't really thought about

in years. But we also got some memories that I had, like, didn't make the, I think they came up once and then got dropped, but I think they're good candidates for lore. Yeah. So we've got, when Miles mistook the Christmas pushpin for a

sexy lady on the Christmas burlesque Was that this year? See, this is the thing that gets me I'm like, yeah, that was just a couple months ago but it could have been five Christmases ago. I have no idea. Maybe it was two years ago. Yeah.

But I do remember, yeah, it was last year. I thought that thing was fucking thick. The dummy thick pushpin. Yeah, it was just a pushpin on a map of burlesque shows, like Christmas themed burlesque shows. And you were horny for it. I don't know why. I just saw like an hourglass shape.

I think it was like those scenes like where like a cartoon animal starving and they see like a mirage. And then they're like, that thing's a ham. Yeah. Oh, and then Victor said, Miles was extremely sick too. Yeah, that happens at the end of the year. That's an annual tradition to me getting ill. My body gives up. Yeah, we all.

I will just say. Too hard. Yeah, I have a depraved mind. I thought that pushpin was dumb thick. So it is what it is. We also have, this was something I figured out on the air was that as a kid, I never, I never dove into a pool for like the majority of my life. And then you guys got to hear me be like, I did my first dive into a pool, guys. I was like, it's so fun.

Why didn't I do that as a kid? And I realized that I just like had a fear of going upside down because I also wouldn't do like flips on trampolines or somersaults. So just me being a person who can't. go upside down. Wow. Yeah. That one was courtesy of Portland Zite Gang. The pushpin one was from an anonymous comment.

An anonymous. Yeah. Wasn't me. Don't worry. It wasn't me. Miles doing a bit on Mickey shooting someone when they did the like Mickey horror movie. Oh, that's right. Yeah, look at you.

You're all wet now. You're all wet now. I don't even. When I read that, I'm like, yeah, definitely said that shit. But I can't. I didn't realize was that because of steamboat Willie going into the public domain? Yeah, and then coming up with like violent ways to re-contextualize Steamboat Willie.

Could be. Yeah. Could also be something totally different. But I do remember laughing so hard at, ha-ha, look, you're all wet. Yeah. I was courtesy of Paul Fay, Glasgow. Oh, right. Shout out the Glaswegian Zite gang.

Yeah, yeah. We love y'all. We love y'all. And this is one that really feels like it. I don't know how this. didn't become part of lore. This is from ancient crone, Christina, who said Miles repeatedly told his story of catching his dog's shit in his hand mid-turred while in an airport to avoid the shame and public

scrutiny of others and as an ode to his Japanese culture of not inconveniencing anyone else. 100%. I could not be that person who had the dog full. I feel like this needs to be lore. It can be. Yeah, yeah, I mean, multiple people have definitely brought up. The bear hand shit catcher.

Yeah. Because then people have also brought up the story of your old dog, too, with bad, bad poo, bad poo experience that I think you had. Did I tell that story on this show where we went when I was shopping for my wife's engagement ring? And he went into the ring store and took a wild messy shit. No, wait, I didn't know that. I think you had another dog traveling with dog messy story. Oh, yeah, yeah.

That's the one I'm talking about. My dog's shit everywhere, wait. So you bought, wait, when you bought an engagement ring, when I bought my engagement ring, I brought my dog with me because I didn't have a dog sitter.

And he took the nastiest shit in this engagement ring store. And it was, it was not. They weren't like, you know, they're very nice when you're buying a. Yeah, because obviously you're buying a fucking ring.

They're like, hey, would you like some water? They were like, get the fuck out of here. They were so mad at me. Just can't control my dog. Yeah.

You come in for, just somehow you go in for your engagement ring and then the doggy bring just shits all over the floor. What a, you hate to see it. But also I would love to see it. Because it wasn't me. It wasn't me. All right. And these are things that border on lower or vocal stem. These just come up over and over again.

Astro pointed out, it's what it is or it's what it's. It's what it's. We found ourselves for some reason during the course of recording this podcast about news. We found ourselves saying it is what it is quite a bit. And then we just thought it was funny to use the contraction for that one. Tighten it up. It's cleaner. Actually, Justin Timberlake came in to consult on the show.

It said, by the way, it's what it's. It's what it's cleaner. Also, we simply don't know. Yeah, that was another one. We simply don't know. I feel that really hit the peak during the Mueller stuff. Mueller, elections.

Yeah, yeah, what's going to happen? We simply don't know. Because the Superduser, Justin, have a lot of work to do in the background on these shows.

So they come out three days after we record them. So there's a lot of stuff that we don't know. Three days after. He's got so much shit to work through from us. We just got to call our shots.

Yeah. The other one, I feel like, Let us go is another one I saw too for Let's go. Oh, yeah. Instead of let's go. Let us go.

Let us go. Yeah, I feel like, yeah. And these are things that break their way into my day-to-day vocabulary and are only appreciated by you on this podcast. Yeah, yeah, exactly. When I say, let us go. No, no, doesn't connect with the kids. I tried doing that.

They don't care. Twisters and people getting sucked off into the sky. Another favorite. Is it one of my favorite things that you've ever said on the show? Miles. You came back from screening the movie Twisters with her meds and you were laser-focused. You came in with a mission. You were like, oh, I got my underrated Monday morning. I had already seen Twisters. I've never been more jealous of a take. That should have been my life. There's no other way, because the first movie was missing that. This one, they were getting, I have no other way to describe it, just straight sucked off into the sky.

Yes. And I'm saying sucked off because of the change in pressure with air. Yeah. Created a vacuum in which they were sucked off. Yeah, sucked off into the sky. It was something you didn't really see. The first Twister movie was like getting hit with a lot of debris and cows and shit. Yeah, they were being cowards.

They were like, guys, we got a new innovation in cinema. And it is the characters being sucked off into the sky. Yeah. This was one that I was so glad to see Get Some Love, the Rocky quote. An obscure quote from Rocky 5, Rocky 6, Rocky Balboa. It's like later era Rocky, not Canon Rocky at all. But you got stuck on this one moment where. It's so stupid.

I just remember watching the movie and being so mad because he's talking in court and they're like, bro, you can't fight. And he has like this one thing where he remembers. Wait, hold on. Yo, don't I got some rights? He's already accepted the judge's decision and he's walking out having been like legally. Yeah, you can't, you can't fight, bro. And then he turns around last second and gives that. Hey, don't I got right?

Don't I have some rights? You said that every episode. episode for it. Yeah, because it's so stupid. That was the Rachel and Tacoma. Yeah,

it's just a fun, it's a, just the idea that you got, like, as if you had like a coupon on you and you forgot to give it at the transaction. Wait, don't I got, wait,

don't I got some rights? Like, something is fundamentally important to your fucking freedom as a human being, like your human rights. You're like, oh, that's right.

Legal defense has afterthought. Yeah. Oh, all right. I can't do it. All right, you're honest. Thanks a lot.

Wait, don't I got rights? Andrew Bubb from the Discord reminded us of Christmas hams, which that still comes up. Christmas hams is another one. Yeah, like Christmas hams. We still reference anyone who's got jacked arms, those are straight up Christmas hams.

Yeah, because he was into men's arms. It's the most macho shit. It's kind of in the same family for me as when Trump would talk about, like big brave general is coming up to me, tears in their eyes. Right, right, right.

A lot of people talked about big brave generals coming up, tears in their eyes. I didn't see a lot of people pointing out that he was also horny for those Christmas hams. No, no, because some people are cowards. Let's see. Coozy and Amy in deep red Aston, Pennsylvania brought up the Miss Piggy Karate Chop, which is currently a vocal stem from the Miss Piggy iconograph episode. Sorry, sorry, Justin. Chop the whole mic.

Aaron Hatch brought up. How you do that? How you do that is definitely been up there. How you do that? For the, yeah, the Trump computer. How does Barron, how is Barron so good at computers? How does Barron's? Robert also said Carville voice.

Yeah. Yeah. Love a bit of Carville voice. He hadn't been talking to. He hasn't been saying nothing recently. He's been quiet. Just wait still. laid like a dead possum for the fascist alligator to bite you.

And then you wake up and you say surprise, but it's too late. Surprise, mother. Surprise. I do, just the had you do that, because we were listening to on the trends yesterday, we were listening to an old Trump quote, oh, right, the, mom, I want a vape. Oh, yeah. Yeah. They're coming home and they're saying, mom, I want a vape.

that definitely belonged to this category. I fucking forgot that one. So honestly, that was such a good pull. I forget who. Let me just search really quick because that was. Yeah, hold up.

That's from the before people were giving their names. That's, that's anon. That isn't anon. Yep. Yep. But guess what? You did,

just so you know, you submitted it on January 22nd at 1201. If that charge anyone's memory. We love you for it. We love you for it, folks. The, but also just the contract. between his speech when he's talking about Ma I want a vape versus him telling the story

about Barron being able to turn on and off his laptop and being like, how you did it? Yeah. Is a marked devolution of the human mind. But yeah, the clip where the Ma I want to vape, just in the beginning, he's like trying, he's just doing this whole campaign about vapes and being, you know, marketed towards kids. If you remember, he got a lot of. pushback because they're like, don't fucking come for my vapes. And he's like, oh, you know,

we'll tweak that a little bit. But this is the full clip of him talking about it. We have a problem in our country. It's a new problem. It's a problem of nobody really thought about too much a few years ago. And it's called vaping, especially vaping as it pertains to innocent children. As it pertains to? Yeah, yeah, as it pertinent. This is when he was still using just being very verbose. Miles, my eyes aren't too good. Is that Bill Shakespeare over there? And they're coming home and they're saying,

Mom, I want to vape. All right. Mom, I want to vape. That is how kids get in trouble. They come home and they tell their mom, Mom, I want to vape. I remember I came home and I was like, Ma, I want to twist my first L.

I don't need a razor blade for this Garcia Vega. Mom, using my thumbnails. She didn't know. And then finally, just last vocal stem that, and there are so many more, but these are the ones that you guys shouted out that really resonated is, I want to fight me, da. Yeah. Which is a Matt Lieb quote that I try and shout out every time it happens, but it's, it has invaded me, my brain, my seven-year-old now says it. Oh, yeah, great. Yeah.

like to see him tried. Tell you what. I'm training him. You better watch out. A lot of people referenced my Kravma God training. I'm also infuse his brain with terrible non-self-defense classes that were just ways to assault people. Which shouldn't be surprising. Give him those Elvis karate classes.

Yeah. In retrospect, having a class fully being taught by former IDF guys was never going to be like, here's how you defend yourself. It's all like, here's how I'm. going to use my skills to fucking beat the shit out of somebody. I badly injure somebody who isn't expecting me to attack them. Exactly. And that's how I went.

That's how I went. Should we take a break and come back with the big lore? The big stories. You got your me piss in my pants. You got your, oh, so you're a tough guy. We're going to hit some of the biggest ones in the Daily zeitgeist Hall of lore when we come back. We'll be right back.

1969, Malcolm and Martin are gone. America is in crisis. At a Morehouse College, the students make their move. These students, including a young Samuel L. Jackson, locked up the members of the Board of Trustees, including Martin Luther King Sr. It's the true story of protests and rebellion in black American history that you'll never forget.

I'm Hans Charles. I'm Mnallick Lamouber. Listen to the A building on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get, podcasts. This is Ryder Strong, and I have a new podcast called The Red Weather. It was many and many a year ago in a kingdom by the sea. In 1995, my neighbor and a trainer disappeared from a commune. It was hard to wrap your head around. It was nature and trees and praying and drugs.

So no, I am not your guru. And back then, I lied to my parents, I lied to police, I lied to everybody. There were years right in where I could not say your name. I've decided to go back to my hometown in Northern California, interview my friends, family, talk to police, journalists, whomever I can to try to find out what actually happened. Isn't it a little bit weird that they obsess over hippies in the woods and not the obvious boyfriend? They have had this case for 30 years.

I'll teach you sons of a bitch to come around here in my wife. Boom, boom. This is The Red Weather.

Listen to Broken Play with Nav Green from the Black Effect Podcast Network on the iHeart radio app, Apple Podcast, or whatever you get your podcast. And we're back. We're back. And it is the 2000th episode-ish of the Daily Zykeyes. We're going through, I don't know why I'm resetting, like we're on the radio. We're going through our favorite memories, our listener's favorite memories, that jogged our memories, and we're getting into the lore.

I think, yeah, we're going to have to call it lore, because when we ask people for their favorite memories. These like 10, 12 things were the most consistent memories, favorite memories. And we're like, oh, okay, we must now, this must be inscribed into stone now. You got to. You got to. You got to. B-O-A-T-666-6 on the Discord, baddest of all time, six-six on the Discord, wrote, my favorite memory is hearing Jack describe an absolute brutal detail on repeat, at least once per month from the very beginning. I don't think that's true.

His water ice roller coaster mishap almost always right off the top. Jack gives all the new listeners the inside scoop into his absolutely 100% true story in which he totally didn't piss himself. First of all, glad to meet a fan and glad you agree that I didn't piss myself. This is the reason I would do it off the top

is because the AKA writers, you're laceroonis, Your Lazz Coroni of the world would write an A.k.a. about me pissing my pants on a ride on the boards and blaming it on water ice basically every day. And sometimes they were too good to pass up. It is, it does require a little bit of backstory. Yep. But I got off a scary ride with my nephews. My shorts were wet. I have no idea how they got wet. and blamed it on water ice. And not even my water ice. I was like somebody must have brought water ice onto that ride. I get it. As I said it the first time telling that story,

I realized this doesn't sound believable at all that I didn't piss myself. No, because you're saying it like, and I don't know, I'm sure, it's not my water ice. Yeah. But this is certainly water ice from some of unknown provenance, obviously. But like, I would admit if I pissed myself, that's the thing about me. I would, that's great content, you know? That's what's so weird about it.

I just like, there was one person, Martin from Canada wrote in, favorite memory. Every time I've tried to get my wife to listen to the show with me or listen to the show with me, Jack starts off the show by talking about he pissed his pants every time. My wife has asked me multiple times why he's always talking about pissing his pants and doesn't believe me when I tell her that it's just been bad luck that he talks about it every time she lives. since she refers to this show as the one with the guy that pissed his pants. Hey, I've pissed my pants. That was not one of the times.

Yeah. And we'll get into those stories in the next 2000 episode. I feel like this might be a piece of lore that we can just retire. We can just, I'll just say, I pissed my pants. Everybody can just go. What do you mean? What are you trying to do here? Because I do think I talk about it too much. But I just, you know.

It's because you keep trying to clarify that you actually didn't when it's not necessary. Right. And don't do it again. But it is necessary because it is, if I pissed myself on a ride, I would admit it. That's the type of podcast. That is true. That is true. We don't lie.

I would admit it. All right. Up next we have, oh, so you're a tough guy. Miles, you want to tell the back story here? Yeah. Oh, man. I'm in high school. I think it's a senior year.

I'm in the band room. We're all getting back. It's like a Monday or something. So everyone's talking about what they did on their weekend. This one guy is talking about how he went on a date and they went to go see anger management. He was like, oh, it was so bad. We walked out of there before it's even done. Couldn't even get like halfway through it.

Again, to paint, to give to a backstory, this is peak angry teenage Miles whose parents split up, which is also another piece of lore that you know about the call. The call. Okay. The call. So I'm a broken teenager who's angry, who somehow, whose father thought the best way to reroute my anger was to send me to Krav Maga and murderer school. And so he said, oh, yeah, I walked out, you know, couldn't even finish. I go, oh, so you're a tough guy, huh?

Yeah. Got right behind, rear naked choke. I don't even know why. He choked him. I don't know. I don't know. Anger management. I'm not a good.

Another thing that people have pointed out, it's so great to see your evolution. That came later. That came like months later. Is Anger Managing your favorite movie, Miles? No, I've never even seen it. You've never seen anger management. Your Honor, he's never seen anger management.

I've never seen anger management in my life. And I'm sorry to that man. I apologize. I remember too because, man, yeah, he like cracked his chin open and I was like, don't tell the fucking teacher, bro. And I had to go to the fucking principal. It was a whole, out so much to he crack.

It was bad, bro. It's a dark moment. And I, I look back again, like, because I was such a discombobulated, like, emotionally, like, stunted, angry kid. I was always getting into weird shit, like getting, I don't know, you know, I was angry. I was putting my hands on people when I shouldn't have. Such an appropriate movie for you to be.

I know, right? Exactly. And a lot of people have pretty. There are a few people who predicted, and I'm going to predict Miles still won't see anger management. Yeah. Lauren from Portland said, oh, you're a tough guy, huh? Has been a vocal stim for the last four years. It's so stupid.

Before choking someone out for having not stuck with a movie. But their prediction was maybe Miles finally watches anger management? Great. Maybe. Maybe. I'm so like. I think we need that. I think we need that.

I think we're just for healing purposes, maybe. Yeah. There's also a prediction that we'll watch Melania together, which we're getting good content ideas here, folks. Yeah. Don't give us too many good ideas. This show might be third rate or first rate. 6.8 weeks was one that was bad, but you got stuck. Like, I'm kind of known for getting stuck on things.

Like, I got a coal gas study, JFK, Havana Syndrome. Those are all. I put those into a category. they got raised a lot of me just, you know, there being these news stories, JFK's assassination conspiracy theory, where like when it comes up, I can't not talk about it all the way through

and explain why it breaks my brain. According to Superdiser Brian, these are the things that I'll be sundowning over, like that you'll be hearing from me as people are just like, put down the shades. He's talking about Havana syndrome again. But 6.8 weeks was kind of yours, I feel like. I don't know.

And look, you were talking about stuff that really affected history, things that shape foreign policy. I'm like, what the fuck am I reading in this food and wine article from May 30th of 2024 written by Melissa Kravitz-Hoffner? Yes. In which the fourth paragraph reads, for the fucking record one more time. Again, the article is called Eminem's just announced a brand new flavor fit for the fall.

The preseason to launch of milk, chocolate, pumpkin pie, Eminem is a strategic move that taps into Mars Market Research. The research indicates that Gen Z and millennials plan to celebrate Halloween by dressing up and planning for the holiday about 6.8 weeks beforehand. Well, 6.8 weeks from Memorial Day is the 4th of July. So you still have plenty of time to latch on to a pop culture trend. and turn it into a creative, what the fuck are we talking about? 6.8 weeks isn't even a number. That's not even a way we quantify fucking anything. 6.8 weeks is technically 47.6 days.

Yes. Which is not, they weren't saying the truth when they said how close Memorial Day was. And I love that. We own the SEO because if you do 6.8 weeks, the Zite guy subreddit pops up. Okay. Shit, cravets or whatever. Fucking shit. But yeah, again, like I said, I think for me, I was just seeing that like the AI nonsense.

Yes, this was casually policing AI nonsense taking over an internet that used to be written by people. Yeah. Who like just said regular dumb shit, not stuff. They were like, in 6.8 weeks, they're going to be celebrating the birth of what are you fucking shut the fuck up. I'm getting so angry again thinking about it. It's potent. I don't know why, bro. I don't want to talk about it.

Let's move on. It resonated with a lot of people. Max said 6.8 weeks still makes me laugh when I think about it. I've tried explaining to my friends who always end up like, girl, are you okay? It is so hard to communicate, but obviously people got it. Yeah, exactly. We've got me getting my whole shit bit, which is just that I was a,

Jaws kid as a kid and instead of being scared. So this was actually illuminating. We got a comment from Jeff who said, it's crazy because I was also a Jaws kid and I always assumed I was the only one. I first saw the movie in the mid-80s at about five years old, exact same timing. Who the fuck thought it was a good idea. I was sadly mistaken.

The biggest difference is that I was terrified of sharks. I have memories of screaming and crying when my parents tried to get me to take a bath. I'd have panic attacks of the swimming pool. and like hell I was going into a laker ocean after that for literal years, but I would still check out every single book on sharks from the library, draw bloody shark attack pictures in school and was obsessed with Shark Week before it went to shit. I guess I just wanted to know my enemy. I, yeah, the weird thing about me was just that I was like, take me,

take me Bruce, take me down. But yeah, I think Jeff, your reaction was much more normal. and I'm a weird person. Yeah. Yeah. So that's a little bit of lore. Yeah. Shout out, Jeff.

I hope you're moving past it. Up next is one that I totally had forgotten about. It was definitely one of my favorite moments in the history of the show. But our readers brought back Quincy Jones. That's that one was, man, if I even look like how many times that Quincy interviews reference, It's crazy how, yeah, it's repeated. So Quincy Jones did this interview. Oh, God, what was it?

Was it Vulture? Yeah, it was Vulture. Yeah, it was on his way out where he was just like, do not, the Quincy Jones, I, doesn't give a fuck anymore tour. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And there were just so many, there was just so, I remember when we were looking at it,

we're like, dude, this shit is so funny that I think the only way to do this is just to like read this as a, script or something because you can't just be like what quincy jones said this about evanka trump quincy jones said this about whatever but a few of you pointed out the specifically there was one part where quincy jones is talking about working with the beetles and his shit talking and this thing was so the interview is so amazing because quincy jones is talking just absolute shit unfiltered shit about whoever like everybody's catching strays in this interview but also the pace at which he

goes from my talking shit to like, hey, you're like Brazilian music or like, hey, you got nice shoe? Like, all these weird pivots really made it what it was. But I will just read this one excerpt because it's still funny for me to read as Quincy Jones. The question was, what were your first impressions of the Beatles? And this is what Quincy said.

That they were the worst musicians in the world. They were no playing motherfuckers. Paul was the worst bass player I ever heard. And Ringo, don't even talk about it. I remember once, we were in the studio with George Martin. And Ringo had taken three hours for a four-bar thing he was trying to fix on a song. I couldn't get he couldn't get it. We said, mate, why don't you go get some logger lime, some shepherd's pie, and take an hour

and a half and relax a little bit. So he did and we called Ronnie Varel a jazz drummer. Ronnie came in for 15 minutes and pour it up. Ringo comes back and says, George, can you play it back for me one more time? So George did. And Ringo says, that didn't sound so bad. And I said, yeah, motherfucker because it ain't you. Great guy, though. Great guy. Yeah, motherfucker because it ain't you. Great guy, though.

I love also just the level of shit talking that, because that's a story that Beatles fans also not, like that Ringo would leave and Paul would then like do the drums for him. But the fact that Quincy Johnson was like, they all suck shit. Yeah, they all suck. Oh, it was the worst bass player of all time. Ringo? Oh, you mean drum?

Oh, I call him drum cuck. Yeah, yeah, yeah. because he think he doing it, but he ain't. Trump cock. Yeah, we got a memory from Jampils who said, yeah, motherfucker, because it ain't you

stuck in my head forever. A lot of people said, you like Brazilian music is also just an offhand vocal system for people. Yeah, that was like one of that was his nice guy though for another one, right? Where he was like talking about fucking Ivanka Trump or something

and that was like, you like Brazil? No, you know what it was? So this is about Marlon Brando. He said, Brando used to go cha-cha dancing with us. He could dance his ass off. He was the most charming motherfucker you ever met. He'd fuck anything.

Anything. He'd fuck a mailbox. James Baldwin, Richard Pryor, Marvin Gay. The interview asked, he slept with them? How'd you know that? Come on, man. He did not give a fuck. You like Brazilian music?

Greatest, greatest interview. I think that's been conducted in our run. And nothing reads as much as that. Yeah. Passed away in November of 2024. Thank you, Quincy. Up next we've got my son roasting me. Yeah.

Which was when, I'll just read a quote from Emily, long times I came from the beginning, when Jack would talk about his son and how they were trying to get him to not come in their room, and he would say crazy stuff on the other side of the door, like kind of sarcastic and menacing, ha-ha. I forget what exactly Jack said he would say, but I thought it was so funny.

other people remembered it, which is, why aren't you answering? Are you deaf? Are you stupid? Oh, I get it. You're stupid. He's fucking five years old. And he just like turned into fucking like Ari from Entourage. Yeah.

So mean in a way that was like seasoned, you know? Yeah, yeah. It was just like the perfect. Well, doing like rhetorical like you're dumb. Oh, you're dumb. Oh. Oh. So you must be dumb.

And he didn't remember it the next day. He was like sleepwalking as a fucking CAA agent from the 90s. God damn. Yeah. Got that one from Shane from Rachel and Tacoma, Washington. Shout out to. Which made me almost cry laughing in a grocery store.

That was also one of my favorite things to read where so many people talking about cracking up in public listening to the show. That honestly, that was some of the most like life affirming shit as somebody who, But like, I don't perform really anymore unless I'm like, you know, this, this allows me to perform and be comedic. But knowing like shit like that that, like, when we're all fucking bullshitting and things like that, that those are things that are breaking you down on the metro at your, at the office, on your commute. That shit is like, I think that's the other reason. Like, we got to do a fucking live show, bro.

Because I miss people hearing laughter. This gave me the itch. Yeah. I need the fucking approval. Yeah, because we're doing this into a void. Like, truly, like, we're making each other laugh. And then it, you know, hearing from you guys every once in a while. But like this was so cool.

I always forget. And people were like, hey, dude, I loved your podcast. I'm like, what? Yeah. Oh, shit. People who like met somebody and then were like becoming friends and then realized they were both listeners. And like that like made their friendship stronger. Yeah.

That's crazy. All right. Probably the most commented one. I think the most commented piece of lore is the call. The call. Like, and the people know, bro. The drama with which they set it up.

March 7th, 2019. Episode 254, where Miles gets a call from his dad about the divorce. Then just topped everything. That just topped everything for me. So that wasn't exactly right. We're going to go with somebody, I think Karen King got it a little bit better.

Miles deadpan telling his dad live on the pod that he still thinks about that March set, what March 7 means to him every year when it comes around, only to finally break to tell him he's joking and have his dad respond with, I disown you. Plus, Jack chiming him with, hey, Mr. Gray, like a deeply awkward and uncomfortable middle school friend caught in the crosshairs. Oh, my God. So you, we were recording and you would, whatever March 7 came up, talk about this is the day. I think this was early.

I don't know why, because this was so, yeah, I mean, this was, I guess, 2019, so it would have been the second year that we were recording on March? Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. Well, no, the first March we would have recorded in was 28. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, so the second, the second one, I think you would trust you enough yet to really open up. I don't think we did it on the air, but I do remember being like you were, I think you acknowledged the anniversary that first year. Oh, yeah, I think I had. I wasn't surprised when it came up in the second one.

Yeah, yeah, like, here we go, March 7th. Because look, I remember, I've told the story. I was like, dude, my dad came to my track meet because I was a high jumper in high school. And I was like, dude, never comes to my, like, I just knew something was wrong because he was at the track me because he was teaching at the time. And it was always while he was teaching. So I was like, what the fuck, bro? Do he lose his job?

Like, why is he here? And then I just could tell. And I remember Buster Rhymes, break your neck was playing on the radio. Wow. A dude is so, like, vivid. We were at the Amelia Earhart Park in North Hollywood. And he was like, you want to take a walk? I was just like, bro, just tell me.

Like, whatever's going on, just tell me. And then he told me, like, you know, like, my parents are like splitting up. But then, yeah, I remember calling him. I think you texted him first. I think I texted him. Yeah, you texted him and we're like, hey, you know what today is. That's right. So, you know, it is.

He said, what? And I said, March 7th, you know, the day you told me you and mom, like, and then he called me. I like that voice. And then, like, called me and, like, checked. Like, really was like, I thought it was going to be funny. Sweet. Yeah. Yeah.

He was like, hey, so you still think about that? And I was like, God, I was like, damn, that's like, there was another right away, not avoiding it, just coming through being like, hey, let's talk about it. It was cool. Like, a lot of respect for your dad. And also, I immediately was like, fuck. Yeah, what are we should not have been? It's like the worst version of a morning zoo prank phone call. Whoa, hey, you still jerked up by your dad?

And then it gets so fucking real that there's no comedy anymore. But the other side of that is a lot of people are like, man, it was just really cool to see that your dad was like a really like caring person. Yeah. And a lot of people were like, that kind of made me realize you guys were kind of different. Like you even would leave that shit in a show. Yeah.

But at least, but share that with everyone. And I was like, yeah, I guess so. Yeah. Yeah, I'll have to let him know.

I should get a voice note from him about that. So I'm able to do another one on this March 7th. This could be like a three-hour episode, so we're going to blast through a few here. You simply must. You simply must. The first vacation that you took during the run of the show, you went to Italy. Oh, Jack. And you came back at Change Man.

Well, the thing is, when you go to Italy, it does something to you. You look at the sunlight break over the rolling hills of Tuscany and something speaks to you. Yeah, it's... You have that shit ready to go in case anybody, like, mentioned spaghetti. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It was one of my favorite things to become the... Oh, you simply must go. Oh, you simply must.

You simply, oh, you haven't been to toe. You simply must. And I got to really embrace the role of an annoying person who goes to Italy once. Yeah. And yeah, the shit bangs. So, yeah, I was there. What are you going to do? Shout out to Danil, because that's a Danil original to even come up.

with this track that I still have on the soundboard. So Dan, we honor you. Thank you for this soundtrack. R.H.C.P.K. Yeah. Just a bout of temporary insanity where, I don't know, like everybody you mentioned was just like, and of course the crossover discovery

of red hot chili peppers in California pizza kitchen, RHCPK. It was just like a random moment of, I don't know, it doesn't fully make sense. But then the AKAs, We got so many good AKs of RHCPK. Yeah, that's when I think, honestly, the, this Discord and Zite Gang really, like, we went up a level.

But we're like, you know what? We got a theme. And now let's play with the form. And that's how you know when you're a genius, when you've mastered the form, because you can do whatever you want and give us wonderful RHCPK, AKAs. Oh, man.

That was a good time. That was a real good time. The shit story, as it was referred to at times when I was like, which one? This is the story about this. This one, yeah. My uncle and my dad would, quote, allegedly. Allegedly, allegedly, Mr. O'Brien. Hey, Mr. O'Brien.

Save their, quote, big shits by fishing them out of the toilet bowl and putting them in a shoebox. Was the funniest story of all time being followed up by Miles screaming. No, Jack. Oh, Jack! I remember it was so funny. Yeah, I, that was courtesy of Alejandro with that memory. I'm glad that it was worth it to sell my dad out because he does not talk to me anymore after that.

I remember, didn't you really make you clear that? I was like, that was your uncle. No, you didn't make me clear it up. No, but I mean, like, you heard it. It was the hardest I've laughed in a long time. But so that, I didn't realize that. My uncle Barry, what's up, Uncle Barry? What's up Uncle Bear?

Hey, Bear. He's a listener. And so she was like sharing that shit. He thought it was so funny. So my dad, my dad contends that it was his brother who did that. And in a competitive way. Okay. You see, you might see a trend in my family where we're like, no, it wasn't me.

That was water ice. Yeah. Oh, wow. So that's the original sin of this family, the shoebox denial. And then Grimmis Come milkshakes just... You know what my memory, thinking back from a distance, and I mostly see Grimmis come and Wooderice is from Seth D. You know what's weird about this one is like it...

Going back, it made me realize how proud I was, how proud I was of the Grimmis Come milkshake thing, because we immediately were like, that's Grimus has come, right? Yeah, yeah, we're like, something's wrong with this. This is bad. Yeah, something's wrong with this.

That's Grimis's come. And then it became like this massive thing in the zeitgeist for a couple of days. We were really surfing the edge of the zeitgeist on that one baby. Like, I think because we were commented it because we were following it like when it had just been announced by McDonald's. And, you know, like when things felt trivial enough to still talk about like new dumb fast food. I always think about that. I'm like, I remember how much we've like, do this is a new thing at Taco Bell.

And then over time, like some things just become so inconsequential. that they're offensive, like, given the, like, the context of our time. We got to go back. We got to go back. I'll work on my transitions. Yeah, yeah. Jarring. Yeah.

The jarring transitions. But, but I think what was interesting is, like, we, we called, again, this, I don't think has anything to do with us specifically, but, like, we definitely noticed there's some, this, this is just fucking weird and odd. And then 10 days later, this, like, weird TikTok trend started up where people were drinking the grimest milkshake. and like it was turning them into zombies or like these horror film kind of like slasher film type scenarios so yeah but yeah fuck it you know what i need i need to be like you jack yeah you know

that was us that was us we're proud we're damn proud of it too all right yeah uh we're gonna take a quick break and we're going to get to one of the most important parts of the show if not the most important parts of the show and uh mentioned so often are the guests we we have some voice notes from some of our favorites, some of your favorites. And we're going to play those and talk about some of everybody's favorite memories with those guests when we get back. 1969, Malcolm and Martin are gone. America is in crisis. At a Morehouse college, the students make their move. These students, including a young Samuel L. Jackson, locked up the members of the board of trustees, including Martin Luther King's senior. It's the true story of protests and rebellion

in black American history that you'll never forget. I'm Hans Charles. I'm Minnick Lamouba. Listen to the A-building on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

It was hard to wrap your head around. It was nature and trees and praying and drugs. No, I am not your guru. And back then, I lied to my parents. I lied to police. I lied to everybody. There were years right where I could not say your name. I've decided to go back to my hometown in Northern California,

interview my friends, family, talk to police, journalists, whomever I can to try to find out what actually happened. Isn't it a little bit weird that they obsess over hippies in the woods and not the obvious boyfriend? They have had this case for 30 years. I'll teach you sons of a bit to come around. You're in my wife. Boom, boom, this is the red weather.

And we're back. And we're going to start out with, what do you even say about Chris Crofton, Miles, that hasn't already been said. Dude. This was, like, pulling from, he's been on 38 episodes. We got at least that many comments from people talking about. Probably more. Yeah. Way more than that.

One of them was, they mentioned at least 60 times. 60 times on people's memories. One of them was just this very, very short one. And he had to take a break in the app to eat an egg, I think it was, courtesy of lip scratch.

So Chris Crofton came on for the first time, relatively late. Like, he wasn't probably there. in maybe the first 800 episodes, I don't think, right? No. Pretty late to the game. And he came on and completely rocked our shit with an episode in which we didn't get out of his search history until like 40 minutes in. Dude, he didn't come on until 2019.

Yeah, February of 2019 was his first appearance. And I think his first search history was mudlarking, which was like a type of YouTube video. where you go into the... No, it was metal. The metal detector was the beginning of it. The next episode was mudlarking. In his memory. All right.

So we asked Chris and Blake and Jamie Loftus and Superpreuzer on a hosene, the same questions we asked you guys. And this is Chris Crofton's response to his memory of the Daily Zykeyes. Hey, it's Chris Crofton. Happy 2000 episode to the Daily Zykegeist. My home away from, home and some memories I have the time during the pandemic. It was one of the first remote shows and I had some setup with a soundboard and a handheld mic and I thought it was working and I was

walking all around the room like a game show host, but it turned out the laptop mic was selected and they had to use the audio anyway. Remember that? That was a blast. And then when I first went on the show the very first time and they asked me what my search history thing was and I said, I watched metal detecting on YouTube and Miles said what? Like people on the beach? And And I said, wait a minute. No, no, sophisticated metal detecting. He said, what? And Jack said, oh, there's some stuff on here.

Something called a video called Revolutionary Warcoy. I said, that's Green Mountain Metal detecting. And then Jack said, what if you get this other one? This is the number one video on YouTube for metal detecting. It's called Metal Detecting Bonanza. And I said, is that aqua chigger? And then DJ Dan played that explosion noise. And the rest is history.

And thank you guys so much. Love you. Bye, bye. that's right we he he blew our minds he knew which metal detecting video like purveyor it was he like had it down like he's like a Beatles fan who's like ah you can tell this is a George song by the way right right he could tell from the title

alone that's Aqua Chigger which metal detective video it was I do remember the like it didn't just sound like he was recording on a microphone across the room it sounded like his laptop microphone was buried under the floor of his room. It sounded like if if his laptop was a old person being like smothered with a pillow to death, these are the last sounds it heard. It was sort of like what that recording. And we would have just not had an episode that day, but because it

was a Chris Crofton episode, we were like, they're they're actually going to love this shit. Yeah. It doesn't matter. Everybody loved it. A lot of people said the live show too that we did, the like, remote live stream live show we did when we're all wearing big ass suits yeah uh i think that was oh four maybe i think we did oh four i think we did something slightly different because we i remember at the time we're like well we don't want to do two thousand because that was for all the people that were at that tour we see you we remember you yeah um and i think we did that's why i did draft suits because i was wearing a drafts like

you were wearing a draft suit i was wearing pukeshell and like abercrombie shit and really on a uh razor scooter yeah yeah yeah and then chris wore a I think full denim. But yeah, a lot of people brought up the Aqua Chigger call and how that blew our minds. And honestly,

that was when we were like, dude, this guy's so different. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Even though, and everyone else pointed out

they're like, it was so weird because they didn't even fucking talk about the news. And even when that guy was on, they were like, sometimes you just got to check in with somebody who,

who definitely has, is totally tapped in with the news. Yeah. But their speaking style, it's like, nah, baby, come on, no.

You just, you come, come be you. Come be you. But I really appreciate the lip scratch, Chris Crofton, having to eat an egg. That was lip scratch was the listener who wrote in about that because that was, he got too amped up on cold brew, two turned up, and then just had to stop in the middle of the recording to eat an egg.

I think it was like his maybe third appearance or something, too. Because we were kind of used to it and he was, this is when we were off the Kirk Sigi, cold brew. Yes, which is a piece of lore. There is lore that we're going to get to. in the in the guest parts that we were saving for

for the section that is absolutely officially lurk. Kirk Sigi cold brew is absolutely lore. Crofton is kind of lower unto himself, I feel like.

Well, and I think that's, I wonder, I mean, because then that cold brew had him like, I'm seeing streaks of light and I need an egg.

And we're like, what? Are you okay, dude? He ate a hard boiled egg. A hard boiled egg. And then it was like, Oh, I needed that.

Okay. And we're like, man, legend. Needed to come down. Insta friend. All right. Another piece of lore that is intimately tied to one of our favorite, most frequent guests, 69 episodes, Blake Wexler and Plumper's. Yeah.

A lot of blumpers. From one of the listeners, I don't think they gave the name. Plumper's is just how they open their memory. Plumper's, period. I remember the episode at first came about. and the sheer ridiculousness of the concept sent me into a howling cackle. And then this is just a not related to that lore, but a very, very memory from sparkles from the Discord.

When Blake Wexler answered Miles' question to Paula Vuganalan about if cabbage is a big ingredient in Indian cooking, he just jumped in with perfect timing and said, I'll take this one. Perfect timing. That's what he's got. And he says he has a favorite memory. I don't recall this happening, but I guess. Oh, I haven't heard this one. Okay. Let's give it a listen.

Okay. This is Blake Wexler's favorite memory. Hey, everybody. It's Blake Wexler. My favorite memory is this year I got to see Jack and Miles in person for the first time since COVID. And I've always known Miles to be an extreme. First of all, is that true? What is he talking about?

That this was the first time we'd met in person? No, he's seen us since. Since COVID? him when was the last time we both saw him together i don't think we've seen him do i've seen him solo yeah we both yeah i saw him solo as well at the we did the uh u.s open thing oh yeah yep yep okay this on for like five minutes and then had to run run out the door yeah because he was very brief he was pointing at his plumbers he's like they're gonna get you okay here's blake for the first time since covid and i've always known miles to be an extremely driven human being and i love that about him

but it was really impressive seeing that drive, that passion applied to not paying for dinner. We went out, had a nice evening, and then the check comes, Miles immediately reaches across the table, slaps me across the face so hard that I fall out of my chair, hit the ground.

He then pins me down, pulls out my wallet, pulls out my credit card, shoves it into the server's mouth, and then goes run it. Run it. And server comes back and says, I'm sorry,

the card was declined, which has nothing to do with my finances. He just chose the wrong card. And this process repeated itself until the payment went through. Prediction, I will say that at some point, Jack will come out as six foot one. I love these I gang. That's amazing. That does check it. By the way.

Yeah. All right. I do remember that. The very first, one of the, my earliest laughing so hard, I didn't know what to, do with myself. Memories from you, I remember was you talking about how you like to do a bit

when you're on a date where you say you forgot your wall and start crying. Yeah. First you go, you got to go like it. Oh, shit.

You got to really sell it. You got to really sell it. Yeah. Oh, my God. Up next, we have the most prolific daily is I guest of all time. Yeah, yeah.

Jamie Loftus. A lot of people called out the pandemic episodes. Yep. In which Jamie came on. We didn't know what we were doing. Like, people didn't have at-home recording setups. We were just like, all right, we're going to try this. Only the saddest podcasters amongst us.

We're ready to go. And Jamie had one. And also our favorite guest in the whole world was shut down. and we had to, we were like, is there any way you could just guess until the world opens back up in another week? Another week, yeah. Another thing pointed out when you called the pandemic a snow day, a much needed snow day. That's one that, uh, that is one that I definitely did not forget. That was one more like, oh, you don't forget.

You still think about that? Oh, yeah. I mean, how, but how, how could you have, your dad? How could you have known? Oh, you still think about that? Okay, you want to talk about it? I still love you. I, yeah, I was like, man, I should shut the fuck up about certain things.

I remember when Lacey and I were like, black people not getting COVID. Yeah. I remember that was, and I remember Lacey and I were texting after like, oh no, oh, no. We're like, okay, so Tom Hanks got it. This person got it. We're like, what are we noticing? Oh, God. Look, we didn't know.

We knew not what was happening. Yeah. I still remember being like, well, the world could use a couple weeks off, you know? Everything shuts it down. It's like a global snow day. What's the worst that could happen? A lot. I stand by that.

I felt bad about that one immediately. But thank you. I'm glad everybody else remember that. So I don't feel so mentally ill that I think about that all the time. Like, you know what I mean? Like that it's just like, yeah, no, that was crazy thing to say. Right, right, right. But yeah, we got a lot of, you know, the pandemic episodes with Jamie kept me somewhat sane through it all from Pam.

Favorite memory, the Mangazi era of the pod during the height of Me Too. That was a-Mangazi. I think that was a Jamie Loftus original. And then the one that we really got a lot of- No, Mengazi was from a listener. Was it? Yeah, and I remember we met that listener. at the DC live show, I feel like, is when we met them. And they were like, yo, I'm the one who said men, guys.

I'm like, yes, exactly. Yeah, yeah. And please reach out if you're still listening. I just did a thing that a lot of our listeners did where, like, they would give, they'd be like, Chris Crofting used to do this thing with myths where he would say Greek myths. It was like, no, that was guy. That was actually, I mean, we didn't get a recording from Guy in time, but that was probably

one of the top four mentioned favorite memories for people was the Guy Montgomery literally taking the what's a myth question and that we used to do with the overrated underrated

and just telling the story of Icarus. Yeah, her narcissists or something is everything. Oh my God. Incredible, incredible work from Guy. But yeah, Jamie, like, I got to say I first knew of Jamie when I We worked at Playboy together and people were like, oh, that writer over there,

she's also a comedian. And I was like, oh, I barely see her. And I like, I just knew. I knew of her. And then when we started recording together, it's like one of those things where you go, I remember like, okay, maybe she's a comedian or whatever. I wasn't familiar with her. And then I became familiar.

And I was like, oh, this person's like, some kind of fucking genius freak. Yes. And yeah. And also just such a like, I remember learning. so much because I feel like one of the early shows, I guess it was like Beckdale cast. And I was still figuring out like how feminism worked. You know, like I was educated enough that I was like,

yeah, I get it, bro. You can't just like shit on women. Like that was sort of like where my definition of it had sort of ended. Yeah. Or not like if I'd articulate it was, but like that was sort of my conception of it. And being like, befriending her,

Caitlin and like many of the other guests was so just critical to my own understanding and like broadening of like misogyny and patriarchy and things like that, that I definitely, I, like, with every guess, I owe like a debt of gratitude for augmenting my knowledge or my ability to think deeper or feel deeper. But yeah, Jamie's definitely a special one. Yeah. So we have a recording from Jamie and then I'll get to the number one Jamie Loftus memory that people submitted that is also one of my favorite moments in the history of the show. Yes, happy 2002, The Daily Zekegeist. This is Jamie Loftus, aka Lil Zam, 2,000 episodes.

Guys, far too many, far, far too many. I want to congratulate my friends, Jack and Miles. The Daily Zykegist has become such a big part of my life. It was truly like a life-changing, experience. And I don't say that about podcasts lightly. Podcasts should not be life-changing. And yet, Zykeist is, I just, I love that show so much. It truly changed my life. My favorite memory in 2000 episodes, and for me, probably about 1,000 appearances, it's so hard. I mean, I feel like I really enjoyed becoming temporary co-host during early

pandemic. But my favorite memory hands down would be back when we were all in the office in the late 2010s together. It was just one of the best periods of my career. I mean, we were like hanging out every single day. We got to see each other. We got to joke around. I met Sophie Lichtenen. I met Robert Evans. I met all these wonderful people. And doing Santa University for the first time in 2017, which is unfortunately nine years ago now was one of my favorite days. It was also the only time that I have recorded a podcast where I was actively bleeding as it happened

because I had for longtime Zykeyes listeners been recording a cursed comedy video where I was being sucked off by leeches immediately before. So I had a diaper strapped to my torso and I showed up with Jack and Miles and Anna and Sophie and Danil and everyone and recorded Santa University One. So that is one of my favorite memories because I cannot believe that we all survived the experience. Zykes is amazing. I'm so proud to have even been a small part of it.

And congratulations to you for listening, for being with us, and to Jack. Miles and the entire team. Shout out Victor. Shout out Anna, shout up Becca. Shout up Brian. Shout out everyone who has been a part of the show for the years. I just, I feel so lucky. And I have more blood than I once did while being a part of this show. So for the next 2,000 episodes, I wouldn't say best of luck. You know, I hope that the world survives another 2,000 episodes. Feels optimistic. All right. I love you guys so much. Bye. Bye. Amazing.

We still have the photograph from the first San University recording on the wall in the office. It is one of those early photographs where they hadn't really figured out the cameras on the iPhones and like the lighting just sucks. Yeah. It's great. We're wearing Santa beards.

Miles, you're giving the camera, the double barrel middle fingers. Yeah. And it's up there and always will be. Yeah. Take it down over my cold dead body. The memory that got a lot of,

Santa University got a lot of shoutouts of Jamie's opus about a university full of Santa's where only one Santa survives at the end of the year was the Jeremy Renner episode. Do you remember that?

Oh yeah. Jeremy Renner dropped a song called Heaven Don't Have a Name. Yeah. And Jamie was the guest. And this is during the Renaissance too. Yes, it was during the Renner Sense. Really into the Renaissance

and calling it out. And she was so perplexed. She pointed out, Heaven does have a name. This is from Jordan, a.k.a. Blinky Heck, who said I still often think of her interpreting the line. So unpredictable, I got to tell you as gibberish.

I wish I could find the clip. She went like, Eso Papa, Pippa, got to tell you. Yeah, exactly. Thanks for the many years of laughs and memories. Love from Jordan. Blinky Heck, one of the great listeners who has an amazing recall on a bunch of stuff. Yeah.

Memories. Also, I think from New Zealand. Oh, she's. Sheet. All right. And finally, the original super producer, frequent guests in her own right. Anna Hosniae, who I got to say, so other, we're going to get to other guests who got a lot of shoutouts who are, you know, the all-time Zay. Zike Gang, a Hall of Fame.

But one that came up a lot was Marcella Argueo for roasting me. And I think that is one of the funnest dynamics in the history of the show is Marcella coming on and just eating me alive. I will say.

Oh, also a two-hander, right? People rightly pointed out they're like, Marcella just stopped saying she's going to do the myth. And we did stop doing it because of that, but also because Guy completely, no one could ever do it as good as Guy

anymore, that we're like, yeah, this, I don't know, I don't know what we're going to get out of this anymore. So that's definitely like, two. He both did the best answer to the myth ever and also showed us that error of having that question in the lineup. Very, very elegant. Yeah, Marcel

was just like, I'm not going to do that shit. What I just wanted to say? To give every day behind the scenes for the first however many years of the show, And running through this day, though she's not the executive producer on it anymore. That is kind of the energy between Anna and I am behind the scenes. It's like Marcel, Anna, roasting me. I've got my 10,000 hours of getting my ass completely chewed up by a much cooler young woman from Anna Hosnia and Marcel Arguez.

But Anna had some memories. Anna, you know, organized our last tour that we did that came up a lot on the, show and toured with us and it was a lot of fun. Yeah. So here's a little word from super producer

Anna Hosnia. A prediction for the next 2,000 episodes is I hope there, I mean, I hope you guys get a break. 2,000 more episodes of a podcast seems like a lot.

Are you guys doing okay? Is everyone well? That's so much work. All right, well, happy 2,000 episodes. Glad I could be a part of the show, wishing you guys all the best. I'll probably see you very soon in a meeting because apparently we all still work together. All right, now you'll be good now. Okay.

Actually, I just had a memory. Remember when we were in Minnesota and we realized that they don't have like alley rats? They have like alley bunnies, which is the cutest thing in the world. And that like blew our mind. we were like, you just have cute little bunnies here in Minneapolis. Like, that's, that's so sweet. God, they don't make them like that anymore, Minneapolis. What a nice place.

Nice people. Everyone was so lovely. Ah. All right. Bye. Yeah, I remember early on when we were doing test recordings, I was like not sure how funny to be, how serious to be. and as a producer,

I was always checking in with Anna. I'm like, what? Like, what? Is this too much or whatever? And she was just like, dude,

you're funny. Like, just stop, like, just people are going to want you to be funny. And I was like, right, right.

Because at the time, I was definitely, the show, I was talking so much about my background in politics that I was also trying to like, sort of straddle both in this way that was like sort of even handed.

But she was very much like, no, like, you are funny. You just happened to also work in politics, like, lead with that. And that for me was like a real fundamental piece of advice from her that I think really shaped how I even present myself on the show. But you were like, but why is that guy not being

funny then? He's the straight character. And I'm like, oh, why? It's not a two piece and a pod bit. But yeah, I mean, like such good insights. And so much of like the voice of the show has been shaped by Anna too. So I mean, I think, yeah, like you said, it's like completely foundational. because so many of those like so many of these guests that you guys talk about that are like man all these legendary people those are purely the comedians that were in anna's orbit as a comedian like a comedy producer yeah who she's like oh yeah like i know like we can get some like really interesting people on that i know too that you guys know but i mean i feel like so many of the people that ended up ended up being true like mount zeitmore people are all due to like anna's you know ability to like identify funny people and know that they were fit for the show. And yeah, she couldn't have been more right. Anna was the very first person when I got the job to launch a not just daily Zykeyes podcast, but like, you know, the West Coast version of like the House Stuff Works thing that was like comedy focused on. It was the first person that I hired because she's just so plugged in and has such great taste and is so funny.

To this day. To this day. To this day! Other guests that got a lot of mentions, obviously Lacey Mosley. Yeah. Very early days, one of the most frequent best guess. A few people have pointed out how long it's been since Lacey's been on. I do want to.

And I think I say this all the time because people are always saying this in the Discord. It's like, we're all very much friends. Yeah, yeah. And I always say, the thing is Lacey's like on broadcast TV now. She has her own TV show. She had her own show scam, guys. So that, you know, it makes things a little bit different. In terms of friendship, still, like, we're closer than ever.

So don't worry not, because Lacey will be back. It's only a matter of time. And also, yeah, shout out to everybody. You know, like, it's true. Like, it's funny that people pointed out, like, her coming on the show and loving scams and be calling her scam goddess and be like, just talk about that shit. Yeah. Like so many people, like her, Christy Yamaguchi, Maine, there's so many fucking talented people

that are like, a lot of people have mentioned, too, Christy Yamaguchi, Maine started off just doing fire akas and they're like, dude, now's like the fucking, like the Twitter account to follow for fun shit. Yeah. Man, everybody's super dope.

So anyway, yeah, shout out Lacey. Although a lot of people thought that she sang Trump free Thursdays, that's actually Shannon Coffee. Shannon Coffee. Shout out Shannon Coffee. Trump free Thursdays.

That's Shannon coffee. Uh, Paula Vigan Allen. Yeah. A lot of, a lot of predictions with her burning, either killing me finally or killing you, one of them and assuming our role.

Yep. Jakeese Neil, Guy Montgomery, Blair Sochi, Andrew T, Matt Leeb, all two men enter one Matt Leap, all people who got a lot of shoutouts for just hilarious moments. Yeah, super fun. And yeah, I think we're just, I always just think of how fortunate we are that like so many funny, smart people just intersected with us in such an easy way. Because, God, man, can you imagine if we didn't, like, didn't have. have like it dialed in in terms of like knowing the kinds of people we want to talk to and like their kind of world food and shit. It'd be a fucking wreck.

What if we were like, we just want to be like more of a political podcast like the fucking. Yeah. Yeah, like the pod save guys or so. I mean like that's the other thing too. And look, we've had some miscues with guests too. Yeah. We heard that loud and clear. Also we're very, very aware when those happened.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Some guests that people are like, remember when you had this guy on and he was the worst? They're like, what the fuck? I remember a lot of people were like, please tell us this story. One said, it's like some CEO of a company who's insufferable.

You guys didn't even get to his overrated. And they're like, I don't even if you know, we were dragging him on Reddit and Discord. Please tell us the backstory of that guy. This is one of those things too. Because a lot of people do point out the expert episodes. I'm like, oh, I really like those. Or when you guys were checking in with Zite Gang, like Hugo Bosque, I believe, was the pizza delivery. on as the domino's delivery.

We need to have more people on to talk about their jobs. That was a lot of people loved that. So we got to have more people on with interesting jobs. Yeah, we definitely, yeah. There are times when we were like, I thought, we were like, is this not working? And then we hear from you all and they're like, why don't you do this shit anymore? Like, oh. Okay.

Well, shit. It's hard. It's hard to know. But that was an era with like the expert episodes where there are a lot of times like, this person's an expert. And then are like, damn, but this person is an L on mic. You know what I mean? And we've had.

Yeah, we were said that experts for a story. certainly more hit and miss and, you know, didn't know exactly what the vibe was going to be. And sometimes it was bad. And I think for us, too, like, I remember at a certain point we're like, man, like, we're at our best when we're, like, we're having, it's joyful. Yeah. So, like, I'm not, yeah. I'm definitely not the person who's going to, like, go up there and, like, tear a person to shreds on Mike,

even though, you know, I wish I was. But it was just like, yeah, this is bad. This is not. Oh, all right, not doing that again. Yeah. But anyway, but also that's why I always said up top, credit to Zygang, because there was also a lot of feedback in there that I was like, oh, this is, and we listen.

We listen. By the way, just talking about a shit from, I guess we didn't have time to get to, but this was one I had forgotten Blair Socky hating that her parents have abs and saying, there's nothing better than wearing a bikini eating a hot dog over a garbage can on the Santa Monica Pier. Oh, my God. Unbelievable. Hell yeah.

All right. we got predictions from you guys. A lot of people thinking that our kids are going to take over the show. It felt like there was one of five predictions. Yeah. Yeah. So one was that like we got an ep-oh baby, let our kids take over the show. And I was like, do they not know how young our kids are?

And then I realized that my seven-year-old was born while we were doing this show. So like in another 2,000 episodes. Seven, so 14, 17, and 10. it would be the age of our kids. I have started coming to the realization that they are going to at some point listen to this show. Do they know, you tell them you're a podcast? Yeah, but they don't. Sometimes they'll be looking over my shoulder while I'm writing the script,

and they will be like, you wrote a bad word. They're like, no, Miles wrote a bad word in all caps. That's his writing style. People don't know my writing style is I don't use any punctuation or anything like that. I just go hard on caps for them. emphasis. Yeah. Trump tweets.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. A lot of predictions for me going on initiation, testosterone, Miles getting hair plugs. Someone, yeah, I got pub hair plugs was a lot of hair plugs, a lot of hair restoration. And I know I gave that as an example, but God damn, I didn't think all you all would be like, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, yeah. They're like, bro, his fucked up head, bro, he's getting that sorted. For sure. For sure, dude. I've seen the cover art. for Ain't a footy. Yikes. That's what one person said,

no, I'm okay. My favorite memory will be when you guys end the pod by getting sucked off simultaneously into the sky. Yeah. By Twister, presumably. I hope it's not the other implication. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Well, one that I think came up a couple times is that you finally understand 6.8 weeks, but no one else understands and you spend the rest of the year trying to have it make sense to me. That was Emily, long times like gang. Any other predictions we want to call out? I'm trying to think.

The other ones, there are a few that made me laugh. I mean, the stuff that really I enjoyed was just stuff referencing how like our lives become more and more intertwined to the point where they really feel like, one was like, your guys are going to be doing this truly into your old age that your kids will take over the show. Yeah. And I'm like, this is not a family business. This is not a family business.

I hope they can do something else rather than scream into the voice. But there was another one. Where was it? Where was it? Oh, yeah. Chris, Oh, they said in the future will be when we watched the Melania biopic.

I think that's just a good pitch. Soon enough. Yeah. Do we just live stream it from the theater like mad illegal? Dude, look at this fucking shit right now. We'll have to figure it out. We'll have to figure it out.

One person said, Paul F. Tompkins, Griffin Newman, Amanda Marquette, and Rebecca Watson make their first appearances on the show. Snudding? gave that one. Have I got news for you? Go to your feed and search Griffin Newman,

buddy. All right. I think that's it. I think we're out of memories. I am out of memories. Oh, hard reset with a therogun popped up. There are so,

and I feel bad because... Hard reset belongs in lore. Yeah, hard reset's definitely lore. And also, like, shout out everybody that has ever contributed to this show in any level, whether that's message.

us, leaving a comment, subscribing, leaving a review. I mean, honestly, we've actually done. We're going to have to do a separate thing just chatting out the AKA Discord, which is such an amazing part of the community and so many great ones. I feel like I got to like three of them, but there's so many. Yeah, I mean, just there's, oh, God, it's like New Chris, David Lesser, Benadium, Silver, Snarfula, First Blood 522. You can't, you current do that on television.

You current. Jost, motherfucking, it never ends. It never ends. Paul Garaventa, we seize you. We seize all of you. We honestly, we appreciate it so much. Snorfila. Yeah, and also, a lot of people said, I can't get on the Discord.

I'm sorry, reach out to me again. We're doing another round of Discord invites. Reach out to me. I will hit you with those Discord invites. Please believe, please. And IMEA for helping run that part of the Discord. Shout out to you. Ayumi, Botamic.

Nick, there are so many other mods that run the Discord. Nick Sampor Taranis, we've got. But thank you all for making this possible. Thank you for your memories. Thank you for listening to the show for your parisocial relationships with us. And hey, we're here. Until this podcast becomes illegal, baby, we're here. That's right.

People said until the wheels fall off. I think that's when the wheels fall. When the wheels are removed by the government. And then this one, yeah, you'll see. You'll know. Don't worry. You'll know. You'll know. All right. Do we do the whole wrap-up thing where you can find us all that good stuff? They already know. Just tune in tomorrow.
