And Raw Dog is incredibly readable. It is. It goes down very easy and is so funny. So good. So smart. She's here all week, folks.

It's Jamie Loftus! so good so smart she's here all week folks it's jamie loftus i've been on the road searching for a dog that's long enough maybe you can show me one i love maybe i'm going through withdrawals i don't even need to eat a bunch i am satisfied with just a touch, baby.

From way downtown, Bozzars what's going on man oh it's good to be back uh fuck up the name of your new show is it wlhr fake public radio public radio i knew i public radio i mean it's still it's still fake radio. It's not incorrect.

Yeah, there was more of a description, and it was a shorthand, and that's why I did it. Yeah. Because I'm so familiar with it. Well, thank you for doing the Lord's work and making fun of public radio. NPR is a frequent subject of, I don't know. It's a very silly world that demands that you take it seriously and it uh it's it's a lot of fun like one of the shows we did was uh we made a halloween version of the daily uh called the nightly with michael barbaric

uh-oh yeah i'm. I'm already scared. Yeah, it was pretty spooky. We interviewed Freddy Krueger about why kids aren't easy to terrify anymore. Does he have the same pausing? Oh, yeah. The same... Oh, good.

Yeah. We did the... It started because I was doing the Michael Barbaro voice, but doing the Silver Shamrock ads from Halloween 3, where I would just be like, it's almost time, kids. It's your favorite Halloween 3. The spooky witch, the scary skeleton, and pumpkin head. Damn, Michael Barbaro sounds like he wants to fuck me what's going on that's that is my favorite barbaroism is when he's like that convention where it's like i'm trying to

connect my zoom call i can't get it on and you're like man i know you're a person just start at the part where you're talking just edit that that out. I know. Yeah. I know you have an editor, Michael. I know that it took them extra work to not edit that out. Right. It's weirder that you texted them to leave it in. Leave it in. The part where I was struggling with my Zoom call, leave it in.

People are going to connect with that heart. Yeah. That's verisimilitude. That's what people are looking for in their podcast. I was trying to. Yeah, that's verisimilitude. That's what people are looking for in their podcast. I haven't listened to The Daily for so long that I was trying to do a Michael Barbaro vocalization, but I did Master P instead. Master P?

Make him say, uh. Make him say, uh. I wonder if anyone's done that, the Barbaro vocalization. Make him say, uh. Make him say, nah. I wonder if anyone's done that. The Barbaro vocalization. Make him say, mm. Anyways, the internet, you have your homework. That's the noise of public radio is that. Yeah.

Give the Discord 20 minutes. It'll be done. Thank you. Thank you, Discord. The Discord is wonderful. I do. I do enjoy it anyways adam we're gonna get to know you a little bit better in a moment first we're gonna tell our

listeners a couple of the things that we're talking about today we're gonna talk about the un has raised the idea once again that we we should start like reflecting the sun's rays against the earth away from the earth from the Earth to combat global warming. They're like, well, no one's going to stop polluting the Earth, so now let's pollute it in another direction, like a different direction, which is the inciting incident for Snowpiercer. I guess it's not the inciting incident,

but it's the thing that, it's like the Skynet. We have just competing post-apocalyptic scenarios. We've got Skynet, you know, ChatGPT and then Snowpiercer has entered the ring and the UN is advocating for it. So it raises a bunch of new questions. So we're going to talk about that. We're going to talk about Elon Musk brain chip. Not good. Elon Musk bad brain chip.

No. Okay. No. I'm prepared to debate about that. Yeah. I actually have some thoughts. And Elon's a genius. We're going to talk about King Charles's carnation.

I still feel so weird for him to be called king i know it's it's amazing i i'm just so hopeful that somebody is taking behind the scenes footage of the planning of this coronation because he like the very small snippets we got of his pen running out of ink and him having like a mental breakdown over it. Like these, like I want that for all of this because nobody wants to play his coordination. Like he,

all his favorite musicians that he asked, nobody wants to do it. Really? Yeah. Oh, I can't. He's getting turned down by Adele and Ed Sheeran. Oh, being rejected by Ed Sheeran.

I wouldn't show my face. I wouldn't show my face for years. He just seemed, I know he's very famous, but he just seems like he's available. Right. Just generally constantly available to all. Also, the Spice Girls, Robbie Williams, and Elton John. So you don't even need to currently be producing hits to turn down King Charles' coronation. But this coronation...

The Spice Girls had time to go in the circle, and they don't. I know. This coronation is just... I love everything about it. coronation is just i i love every everything about it like just they they were like do we need to just like rush it out because he's such a mess and like so just pathetic that like we like we don't want people paying attention to it but now they've like paused it for long enough and they're like we're gonna do a thing about i think it's like something about like how the economy is down and so like that's gonna be the theme of his coronation is like or hit how in

touch with ordinary people he is which just oh my god don't just don't please do please do i just i yes i right into the veins so much veep energy to this whole thing it's like okay we need to get you to seem like mr regular guy make you seem like regular charles not weird charles and they've been so worried about him like from like the time the queen turned like 50 they were like oh my god she's gonna die one day and we're gonna be stuck with this guy like he's he's just like haunted by his own mediocrity he's just so like the most thin-skinned human who has ever existed there's so many great stories about what uh like just bizarre human specimen this guy is so yes please please somebody be taking video just even i'll take iphone footage we'll we'll edit it together into something coherent but please get really the flop to his core just like an absolute to his absolute core king in his marrow

and it's like if you know i don't know i'm like the very very least and uh evil like an evil uh colonizer family can do is be embarrassing be embarrassing in public yeah like for all of us. Yes, absolutely. But the royal family is in their flop era for sure. We are going to get to probably some of that. But first, Adam, we do like to ask our guests, what is something from your search history? Well, I was looking up my astrological sign. And the reason I was like looking it up is because like I don't know much about it.

Like, well, here's also the thing. It's like my birthday is on the 22nd. So I'm two at once. You know what I mean? Like depending on the source. Oh, you're a cusp. Are you a Pisces Aries cusp? No. Scorpio Sagittarius. Pisces Aries.

Oh, I thought your birthday was coming up. I'm sorry. Oh, no, it's okay. I mean, in a way it is. What month? 22nd, what month? November. November. Okay. Yeah. Okay. Yeah, so it was like one of those things where it was just like it's not something i really paid attention to and then my uh partner anna who does left-handed radio with me she was working on

this show about astrology and we were just like what what is the what are the things that are supposed to apply to who we are and then we like read them and it's like, I think it's backwards. Oh yeah. She got yours. You got hers. Yeah. Yeah. We seem to, well,

that'll happen sometimes actually when you live with someone long enough, I guess. Yeah. I didn't read far enough. I also looked up the, the old Capricorn. Sorry. I looked up the old sandwich shop in my college town to make sure it was

still open. I guess. Yeah. So can you explain the sandwich store controversy to me somebody who's supposed to pay attention to the news for a living which sandwich store controversy are you talking about the call isn't there a college sandwich store controversy that's happening oh wow no i now i have to find that out now that's gonna be my list oh wait what were you referring to when you said you oh do you know how it's like sometimes like you'll just be like

it's like this weird thing where like you just go like there's so many so many things closed during pandemic and so many like like things will just go out of business anyway. And you just go like, is that shop that I got the sandwich at a couple of times still open? And it was just like, let me look. I have to know. I have to know. Instead of like just moving on with life. Yeah, that's a good point. Yeah, I feel like college sandwich stores are probably among the most resilient because they had like a starving population marooned there.

Like even during the pandemic, I think. I guess colleges didn't all stay open during the pandemic. But yeah, I don't know. It's a pretty inelastic demand. I would say they're probably hanging in there. What was your college sandwich place still open? Yes, it is. It was called the International Sandwich Shop.

And it just... Oh, I love titles like that. Yeah. It's like in the middle of an Illinois farm town. And it's called the International Sandwich Shop, I guess, because they had like meats from across the country. It's just... It's a ridiculous title. I love a grandiose title.

Right. There's this place called the Hot Dog Hall of Fame where I'm like, where the fuck do you get off calling it that? But it's so thrilling. You're like, yeah, I feel like I'm a part of something bigger than myself when I'm just, you know, eating a bunch of bullshit. I just looked up mine. It appears to still be in business, although it's impossible to know because the website has not been updated since before I went there. It's Weissmiller's Deli. The Chicken Madness?

The Chicken Madness is a delicious sandwich. It's like chunks of grilled chicken, cheese. Yeah, it's not very appropriate. is a delicious sandwich. It's like chunks of grilled chicken, cheese. Madness? Yeah. Yeah. It's not very appropriate. They're not doing a good job of, you know,

acknowledging people's mental health struggles, but there's both chicken madness and burger madness, and they are delicious sandwiches. But the website leaves something to be desired although i think it's come back around to being like cool again yeah it's got like a kitchen peel now yeah the web design is actually like the color combo is salmon it's back and then yeah and then like a very strange combination of greens and it's like low-rise jeans you just have to wait long enough for it to come back and i've been waiting and i'm ready for to put mine to to sport mine again my low-rise jeans

i want i wonder if the chicken madness is still like there's i i i wonder if someone is keeping track of this because i would drop everything to do it if if it's not being done just keeping track of like our fallen sandwiches over time the chicken madness there's a whole story there you know the seafood sensation from subway i know that there's still people that are fighting for that to this day the tuna sandwich from donkey donuts that's obviously something that's important to me but there's just a lot of you know sandwiches that have been and i want like a defunct land style uh youtube channel for for channels for like sandwiches that don't exist anymore yeah well the chicken madness is not going away so it's not going to be on your god thank you thank god it's not going to be on your

little show jamie sorry to say fine jack uh what is something you think is overrated adam uh did you guys see that uh was it the the new yorker the end of the english major thing i saw it and then i said i'm not clicking on that yeah it's it's this like so it's like one of those like very you know typical like it's got this scare headline the end of the english major and it's like arizona state university is seeing a decline in people studying english and getting their degrees in english some colleges are saying like we don't have enough students to necessitate an english program and it's like we focus so much on stem within the last like, 5-10 years that people are not motivated to get their degree in English. And also there's like that's typical like cell phone scare thing of like,

oh, people have cell phones, they they don't read books anymore. I mean, this one professor's like, I just got a cell I just got a smartphone. And I went from reading five novels a month to one novel a month because I'm reading all these websites. And it's like, OK, shut up. Say less. This is why people don't want to study English is because of this boring attitude. I hate when someone does something boring and then they're like, this is news. You're like, it's not. Shut up.

You got a phone. It's not my problem. Oh, my God. Exactly. And also like lamenting, like, I couldn't imagine assigning Middlemarch to today's English students. And it's like, well, maybe that's fine. Like maybe we do actually need a focus on STEM and we don't need people like going into massive debt to get an English major. You know what I mean? Like if it's a specialty major or you can't get one at every college, maybe that's not a problem.

Well, I don't even think I mean, I'm like I saw some conversation going on around that piece that I would just think when I learn about something on Twitter, I'm like, probably safer to not interact with this and never learn what it is. That's sort of my current Twitter policy. But I did see people say like, oh, well, there's also like it's such a common thing to like bully people who are like history or English majors that like I would understand why people would be less willing to do it and also like you're saying like less willing to like if it was more accessible to get an English degree and you didn't need to go into six-figure debt to do it I'm sure that more people would want to but if the price of college is going up then it makes sense that like it would be more popular to get a degree that you could probably get it like almost certainly get a job in afterwards, which sucks because then it's like,

yeah, I don't know. I sort of, it is a bad thing. I think. Yeah, it's bad. Yeah,

it's not great. Yeah, like that. People are like, I'm on my grind. I got a major and angel investor venture capital firms or whatever the fuck i just hate the idea that they would blame it on phones it's like okay well if phones are like phones aren't gonna go anywhere so a lot of people are i don't know it's like even like the rise in popularity

and like audiobooks it's like yeah you just need to find a way to consume the same thing that matches people's like consumption habits better right chill out i also think that that's yes chill out professor dork is a t-shirt i have to say i'm gonna get canceled that's a great t-shirt i was a philosophy major so i don't know anything about uh useless majors yeah i have my degree in art, so. Nice. I have my degree in screenwriting. Hot dogs.

Did you? Hell yeah. That's actually, that's a trade, though. Philosophy, not so much. Philosophy majors are all, they're like, you could be a lawyer or you could be a philosophy professor and teach other philosophy majors.

The two genders. I consider you to be a philosopher, Jack O'Brien. Oh, that means so much to me. That's much better than lawyer. I consider you to be a lawyer, Jack. Thank you so much. A closeted lawyer. You know, I've had boyfriends that have told me that when I argue with them,

that I would, they're like, you know, you would make a great litigator, but it's meant to be insulting. Of course. Yeah. Yeah. And all men are so bad at arguing with women that they are like, oh my God, what are you talking about? Their defense is wow, you're really, you're winning

this argument. Wow, you should be a professional bitch. Maybe Wow, you should be a professional bitch. Maybe. Maybe you should be. Maybe I will. Yeah. What's something you think is underrated, Em? I don't know about you guys,

but I am so relieved that the Havana syndrome isn't real. You're worried about it, right? We talked about this yesterday. It's one of these things where we we are definitely living in like science fiction times and the idea that like you know uh our intelligent agents or intelligence agents are getting like you know laser beamed in the head is frightening and then to find out that it's just anxiety and crickets is a bit of a relief yeah like i'm not ready for that level of i guess uh warfare yeah yeah and i think they weren't either like that's the amazing thing because

they they spent the whole the entirety of the cold war benefiting from like their paranoia and you know just being super paranoid and being like that means that russia has these super weapons and we need to be spending billions and trillions of dollars on these these weapons that's what it was like driven by and the fact that this time they're just like nah they're sorry we were making it up our bad bad. This is embarrassing. I do appreciate it. And I am glad. I was also very on the record that this wasn't real from pretty early on. So I'm no closer to understanding what we're talking about. Oh, no. I think that's brave of me to admit. Yesterday, I think I really muscled my way through the conversation and tried to say just enough words.

And today, I just don't get it. It does sound like a John Clancy novel or something like that. So, yeah, don't blame you for just checking out at the name Havana Syndrome. It's like basically a couple of spies. Do you want to know what it is or do you want to just kind of stay, just muck it through? No, I want to know. I want to know. I like to learn from my friends.

Like a couple of spies in Havana were like, they heard a loud beaming, like a loud screeching noise and then started suffering from like vertigo and stuff like that. And then they told other spies that and those spies had similar things happen to them. And they and so it became this thing where they were like, Russia has a sound weapon that they're like attacking us with. And it is like frying our brain matter and like you guys need to look into this. tracing how the reports came in and it was just clear that it like the way these were spreading was through like social contact with people and then like hearing about it in like very uncertain circumstances and feeling weird about it and then there's that new york times article that like showed that it you know could be this mass psychogenic thing that they've done a really good job of studying and figuring out how to treat it.

But then once it became a news story, it also tied in with Trump wanting to undo all of Obama's progress with Cuba. And so he pulled a bunch of spies out of Havana and was like, Cuba is either attacking us or making it possible for people to attack us. So it was like this big international incident that was probably caused by, yeah, like Adam said, anxiety and deep spiritual issues that CIA agents have with what they do for a living.

Wow. Is it the ringing in their ears of their own regret? So somebody got a recording of this noise. Yeah, they recorded the beam. And they were like, that's the laser beam noise. And then people were studying it and an entomologist was like,

those are Cuban crickets. That's just what crickets sound like down there and they're like no that actually wasn't that actually wasn't the one we were sorry we got the recording wrong that actually wasn't the one wait first of all are you like a fucking lawyer because like the way you're picking this apart is upsetting. I'm sorry. Yeah. Being a huge bitch. You guys, you're being a huge bitch right now about this Savannah Syndrome stuff.

I wish you could just say that to the CIA. Unfortunately. Yeah. So anyways, it does seem like people are taking this last report because there's been like many reports that were like this was not a thing. There were no weapons. But it does seem like this last one, because it was multiple intelligence agencies kind of coming together and say it wasn't a thing. It seems like it's actually like kind of broken through. And now Havana syndrome is officially seen by a lot of people now as like what it was. So that is in a nutshell what it is. And I'm sorry that I didn't do a better job explaining that on yesterday's episode. No, it was my job to understand better when I showed up and then I got scared. But, you know, here we are. I think we're doing good. Yeah, we're all doing our best here. Let's take a quick break and we'll come back

and talk about reflecting the sun's energy away from the earth. Oh, my God. I'm Jess Casavetto, executive producer of the hit Netflix documentary series Dancing for the Devil, the 7M TikTok cult. And I'm Clea Gray, former member of 7M Films and Shekinah Church. And we're the host of the new podcast, Forgive Me For I Have Followed.

Jessica and I will delve into the hidden truths between high-control groups and interview dancers, church members, and others whose lives and careers have been impacted, just like mine.

Through powerful, in-depth interviews with former members and new, chilling firsthand accounts, the series will illuminate untold and extremely necessary perspectives.

This summer, the nation watched as the Republican nominee for president was the target of two assassination attempts separated by two months. These events were mirrored nearly 50 years ago when President Gerald Ford faced two attempts on his life in less than three weeks. President Gerald R. Ford came stunningly close to being the victim of an assassin today. And these are the only two times we know of that a woman has tried to assassinate a U.S. president. One was the protege of infamous cult leader Charles Manson.

I always felt like Lynette was kind of his right-hand woman. The other, a middle-aged housewife working undercover for the FBI in a violent revolutionary underground. Identified by police as Sarah Jean Moore. The story of one strange and violent summer. This is Rip Current, available now with new episodes every Thursday. Listen on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts and we're back and have you guys seen snowpiercer yeah so like in that movie that just like in the prologue like the news clip montage prologue they're like somebody put it to combat climate change somebody put a chemical into the atmosphere to like reflect the sun's rays away from the earth and they like overdid it and now the planet is ice planet and the only people who are alive are on this train. And that definitely scared me off of this idea. I'm like, no. But now the UN is kind of floating it out there again. really understands climate change and international like geopolitical systems writing about how the future of climate change could most likely play out and they also like bring this up quite a bit i think the author's name is kim stanley roberts yeah uh the author's name is kim stanley robinson

and they're yeah it's a it's a good book it's worth reading and one of the like things that happens in the book is there's like a massive heat wave in india that kills like millions of people and motivates that country to like go rogue and do their own like high atmospheric gas release that actually works to like cool the climate but that is now like a thing that people are writing about in news article because new news article in news articles uh because like that we're nobody is doing the things that we would need to do to stop polluting the planet enough to have catastrophic climate change. And so the solution is to put something in the atmosphere that would act similar to like

what a volcanic eruption does, which is like, you know, the global temperature after a really significant volcanic eruption, the global temperature will drop by like a degree or two because of all the ash in the atmosphere and like the sun not reaching us as as much as it does without that stuff so bleak that like that we're we're at this point where it's like it's so clear that there's not going to be any large scale action to that. It's like people are trying to think two steps ahead of like, well, there's no chance there's ever going to be any regulations that are significant enough to save the planet. So what if like it's just I understand the logic behind it, but it's just like, oh, Jesus Christ, christ we're just never gonna get good climate change legislation cool just like fiddling with the thermostat is essentially what we've come up with right yeah you're like blowing the fucking nintendo cartridge and hoping for the best and

just put across the entire globe yeah and that's what it's going to be really tricky to get everybody on board with this. And like especially, you know, where like right now, like the super wealthy are going to be the least affected by climate change and like probably in the near future. And so they're all going to the Denver airport and they're going to, you know, wait it out. They're all going to the Denver airport and they're going to weigh it out. Yeah. What's the Denver airport conspiracy theory? Is that there's a tunnel city underneath it? Yeah. Now you educate me.

There's a bunch of tunnels. There's some Girl Scouts in the 90s that claim that they saw the rich people tunnels. And they're like, oh, but no one ever brought up the tunnels. Why did the girl scouts get the tour of the rich people tunnels i couldn't tell you all i know is there's ancient girl scouts that have been to the tunnel and yeah they're they're gonna go down there they're gonna um they're gonna live well while the rest of us burn to a crisp i think is the plan yeah or you know freeze you depending on where things go but that's's why the Denver airport is allegedly scary. I believe it. There's like a really freaky mosaic there too of like people in gas masks and stuff,

like out of nowhere, like a lot of weird. There's a lot of Holocaust imagery. There's gargoyles at baggage claim. There's that big scary horse with the glowing red eyes whose like leg fell off and killed the sculptor that was creating it there's a lot of stuff going on at the denver airport i love getting stuck there it makes me feel like i'm in uh b movie it's exciting it is it's got a it's got a super villain lair uh feel anyway yeah big big minions big grew energy to the Denver airport.

Minions work there. That's how you know shit's going down. But OK, a speculative group of technologies to reflect sunlight back away from the earth has been getting more attention recently. this view may change if climate action remains insufficient the report says signaling that it's time for rigorous study of both the technologies and the potential international governance which seems like the tricky part but do they have the chemical like do they know what it would be it's just a matter of or is it just like we're we'd have to put in a lot of research to find the chemical that would, you know, mimic volcanic ash? I think they have some theories, but it's also like one of those things that you do. It's not really a thing that you want to like go with the guess and check like method on changing the global temperature. It's a one and done. Yeah. Yeah. Let's a one and done. Yeah. Yeah. being brought by their kind of environmental team what why would the world agree like why would all

of the nations in the u.n be able to agree on this proposition if they already cannot agree on other climate change action like right that's yeah i think the climate change action requires them to make sacrifices and do things that aren't that are like not profitable. It's like that is impossible to do something that is not operating in the most efficient way for shareholder value, it seems like. Right. And so there's just like spark. The wiring behind their eyes is like sparking every time that you try and get them to do some sort of climate change action. time that you try and get them to do some sort of climate change action or you know like one of the big thought systems is like what about not gearing everything towards growth and they're like what like just blinking 30 times like because it's not sustainable and we'll blow up um so so this would

be like an opportunity to circumvent like or try to have it both ways. Sending people into the stratosphere to spray volcanic ash or, yeah. I mean, I don't think it's like, I don't think they're necessarily trying to exactly mimic volcanic ash. I think just volcanic eruptions are the thing that has, like, given them this idea, essentially. But it does seem like something we want to be really careful with and also something that's going to be incredibly hard to get everybody to agree on and yeah i'm sure there's a way that the wealthy people who actually control like what decisions get made are going to fuck this up for the rest of us right unless there's like some valuable uh contract to be gotten from from having done it like i think part of that like they bought all that all that property in new zealand like they're they i'm sure there's like at least a

good portion of the population who like meet up in davos every year who are just like we kind of want this it seems like it would be fun and we would get to like repopulate the earth because we're, you know. They have floating mansions. Yeah. Like that. So they're like, why, I don't,

I don't want to have wasted that money. So I could see, even if this does turn out to be a good idea, I could see this being, sort of hitting some headwinds, as they say. It sounds too much like the plot of a Michael Bay movie for someone to not completely fuck it up.

Yeah, yeah. The Michaels, Bay, and Crichton come together to write a science fiction film that is our future, it turns out. Yeah. Well, as long as there's a weird little graham cracker inspired sex scene, I guess all's forgiven. covered historical documents that these exist. Like there's a West Virginia resort that secretly had like a massive underground habitat for the president and like the leaders of the United States in the event of a nuclear Armageddon that was like there throughout the Cold War in case they needed it. And now you can like go and take tours of it but because it

was like far enough into history we just are like oh that's quaint but there's there's no way that like bezos doesn't have at least like five of these already like under construction spot like yeah i i true like i'm not a very conspirator i'm not a conspirator i mean whatever zeitgang we've we've been together for a long time i'm not a conspiratorially minded person but this one i fully like if you've got evidence that it's not true i'd love to see it because why would you build an airport like that it's the worst airport in the world it is so weird it's so far away from denver it's so like just sprawling and strange. They're just counting on. But then also I'm like, maybe it's not true.

Going to Denver makes me lightheaded and gives me a nosebleed. Maybe my brain cells are not operating as they were intended while I'm at this airport. But I do. I believe in the theory. Look up the Girl Scouts. that sounds also like a michael bay movie the girl scouts no you got to find the girl scouts cut to christina hendrix and a girl scout in her 40s being like i saw it i saw it that's right yeah and like the like in a post apocalyptic setting like with people like wandering the, they just like put a bunch of like scary art up around to be like, don't come here. This isn't this isn't where you want to be wandering band of cannibals. That's my loose theory. Well, sick the demon horse on you. Yeah, I've seen I've seen it might have been TikToks, but I don't remember. At this point,

like employees of the Denver airport seem to be conditioned to kind of like lightly engaged with this if it's brought up to them. Where they're like, oh, I don't know. I don't know if they tell you. Yeah, if you have any information on this, that's not just like the standard Wikipedia article. But like, yeah, hit us up. If you work there, if you know somebody works there let us know yeah don't don't bother me with anything before results page like 17 because all right let's take a quick break we'll come back we'll talk elon musk

This summer, the nation watched as the Republican nominee for president was the target of two assassination attempts, separated by two months. These events were mirrored nearly 50 years ago, when President Gerald Ford faced two attempts on his life in less than three weeks. President Gerald R. Ford came stunningly close to being the victim of an assassin today.

These are the only two times we know of that a woman has tried to assassinate a U.S. president. One was the protege of infamous cult leader Charles Manson. I always felt like Lynette was kind of his right hand woman. The other, a middle-aged housewife working undercover for the FBI in a violent revolutionary underground. Identified by police as Sarah Jean Moore. The story of one strange and violent summer. This is Rip Current. Available now with new episodes every Thursday.

Listen on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And we're back. And Elon Musk's Neuralink, he's repeatedly been like, this is coming, folks, just any day now since, I think, 2016. That's so unlike him. I know, right? So on at least four occasions since 2019, Elon Musk has predicted that his medical device company, Neuralink, would soon start human trials of a revolutionary brain implant to treat intractable conditions such as paralysis, blindness. conditions such as paralysis, blindness. And it seems like they just hit a major block in their progress because they did finally submit it to the FDA to be like, all right, what do you think, guys? We're good here, right? This is just a formality. We're good. We're about to start jamming these things into people's brains. I like the idea that, in my mind, the way to test it is to put the chip in someone's brain and then show them an Elon Musk joke tweet.

And if they laugh, it's working. Right. They just get 13 orgasms. Yeah. You see an Elon tweet and you come at least a gallon and that's how you know it's working. Yes. But the agency, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, rejected the application. It's shocking. This is according to seven current and former Neuralink employees, they say it's not happening. A big sticking point is the whole jamming a lithium battery into your brain thing. That seems to trouble them.

Some of the listed concerns are that wires could migrate to other areas of the brain and worries about how the device can be removed without damaging brain tissue. So, OK, so little things removed. Yeah, exactly. Thank you. Why would I ever want to take this amazing thing out? Just get upgrades. Just get software updates like your Tesla. Yeah, well, if you have Neuralink, will you also be convinced to just run off the side of a cliff? I can walk now, but I can't recognize semi-trucks from a sunset. Yeah. Well, there was a sun glare situation and I

did run into the middle of the 405, unfortunately. But yeah, the whole culture there is like, they're like, okay, this is just a little bump in the road. We're just going to quickly resolve the issues that they brought up. But the issues are all like the very first things that come to mind when you hear about this prospect. It's like, yeah, you're sticking something into a human's brain like that. That's's a mess like what how are they gonna overcome that and it seems like they just hadn't hadn't considered that problem carefully enough and so i heard about it didn't they kill didn't it kill like 15 out of 23 monkeys yes that they tested it on yes really not a good average even if it's an ape killing chip it's? Not a good average. Even if it's an ape-killing chip, it's also not a good average. Right. They're going through monkeys like they're printer cartridges, like just treating them as an inexhaustible resource.

And the culture there is that regulators are obstacles to innovation and you have to like trick them so you're you're not like even this is not being viewed as like they make some good points it's being viewed as how do we like trick them into giving us like the the ability to do the thing that is going to be most profitable which is how all of elon musk's businesses have like gotten shit through. I mean, I feel like we were hearing similar stuff with Tesla of like, well, yeah, we're not going to fix the problem. We're just going to wait until they're willing to be steamrolled into releasing the product. Yeah. The company's also gotten shit from the Department of Transportation

for illegally transporting dangerous pathogens on chips removed from monkey brains without proper containment measures. So it just seems like he just like he again, like I think very wealthy people want to cause the apocalypse. Like I think there's like they've sunk a lot of investment into the a post-apocalyptic world like Elon Musk. into a post-apocalyptic world. Like, Elon Musk does probably have a, you know, underground bunker

in every, like, major city in the United States, and he is, like, trying to repopulate the globe already with, you know, all the babies he's having. With people who look like shit. I don't know what his kids look like. I just know he looks like shit. Yeah, he really does. I know I said the thing about English majors going away not being a big deal, I don't know what his kids look like. I just know he looks like shit. geniuses in their field like musk and bezos and zuckerberg as like they're big fans of science

fiction but it seems like it seems like they experience science fiction stories like either tv and movies and go like oh that thing that ruined everything let me make one of those right they're like their imagination is fired by the concept. Like somebody gives them the log line of the science fiction thing and then they never like bother reading through to see the consequences. They're just like. Exactly. Yeah. It's it's just like sort of that that sort of like I still think that like English going away as a major is a different thing than like, I don't know, teaching media literacy and reading comprehension and like that. You know, sometimes these stories are meant to warn you against doing something.

Right. Yeah. I mean, yeah. I mean, even expanding on like just the humanities in general where it's like, yeah, it's not profitable to get a history degree degree but someone's got to get a fucking history degree like you know or we are really and truly fucked and it's like well it's more the issue of i don't know and and then i feel like there was a lot of like gendered aspects to like they're not being like to stem being so overwhelmingly male that there was like a push for women to get stem degrees, which makes a lot of sense. But it's like that doesn't need to be at the behest of you need people in the damn humanities.

And so that someone can write a banger about Elon Musk. thing i worry that it's just going to be tesla all over again where it's just like we're going to be talking about these kinds of stories of like it killed every like it failed every possible test and then fast forward six months and they're like but it's coming out for you know reasons because he has more money like that he probably spends more money on like travel and food than the FDA budget. Like personally, he probably does like the FDA budget is like not that significant. Like the. Yeah. So, I mean, like that's the thing is like even with the English, the history majors, it's like, well, it's about where you choose to invest money, right, as a society. And, like, we've left it up to billionaires to tell us where to invest money. We haven't always done that. But, like, that is the world we live in now. So, like, yeah, it's become less profitable to be a history or English major because the world is run by fucking elon musk and jeff bezos and like that

sort of that idea that life like does not compute for them so like yeah we've just let them build a civilization in their own image and it's not it's not good i feel like it's gonna be bad like especially with history it's like we've got to find a way to make young people studying history and studying it in a way that there is an understanding of who is writing history to just have that invested in. Because if no one understands history, then whatever. It's like stuff you hear all the time. Then it's just like, that's intentional. The Elon Musks and Jeff Bezos of the world don't want you to understand history because they're like the worst part of it.

Yeah. And there's like precedent for them. So, I don't know. I don't know. It should be fine. It'll be fine. Do you see Neuralink being like a status symbol like a Tesla is? Because I'm wondering how that would play out because it's

going to be a thing in your head right i could definitely see a future where having yeah having these like tech implants is is a status symbol and like that there are probably ways to do this that aren't jamming an ion battery into a human brain that will be like wearable tech you know tech implants that are just like under the skin as opposed to like in in your brain have you heard about those guys that put like a magnet in their finger yeah so there's like versions of that like the like hold on people have these implants that allow them to you know do do various things but i think the coolest one like yeah so i'm magneting your finger what are they doing with that again i forget what are they doing with that it's i think it's like these these folks who like you know they'll put like a chip in their like wrist so that they can get into some, you know, locked door in their, you know, research laboratory.

But then there are also guys who are like putting magnets into their fingertips so that they have basically magnetic fingertips and so that they can basically like cosplay as cyborgs. Yeah. Oh, that's also like, so there's the cochlear implant that like, if you've seen like the sound of metal or like cochlear implant is like a, an implant that can help people who've lost their hearing, like begin to hear or who were born without hearing, like be able to hear by like actually interacting with like the messages that are

being sent to the brain and then there are also like people who are doing research into ways you could like create new senses so like there are people who've created a thing it's like a vibrating like a vibrating implant that i think goes on your tongue sometimes they've tried it on your back but it's like anywhere where you have a lot of nerve receptors and it like is sending you information that your brain eventually over time begins to be able to like decode automatically and so they've done it with like just always knowing what direction north is like there was a belt that they tried out where it's like always vibrating slightly to the north and so eventually you just get this innate ability to know what north is but there are other things like they've tried with like

always knowing what's happening with the stock index and stuff like that just having a non-stop feed of information about like things you want so it's like adding an additional sense on into your body that your brain is like an amazing machine and will like learn to decode that and just have like a sixth or seventh sense, you know? But I mean, that just sounds like, again, I know I'm probably stating the obvious. I intentionally have not been keeping up with Neuralink because it scares me, which is probably bad. But how can you doing that that's great but if they can make it safe for the goop in your head like what kind i mean there would have to be restrictions put in place of like what can you make this thing do versus what you can't and like how much autonomy and

control do you have it so you don't just become a fucking ex machina you know i don't know yeah and i feel like we are not in the best civilization to handle that sort of innovation, I guess would be my point. Because Elon Musk and the richer you are, the more sway you have. These things that are in place, this is an example of one of the things that's in place to moderate these sorts of innovations that like working, but with enough money and enough force over time, like I feel like those things won't be able to stand up. So it's a little scary. Also scary, King Charles's coronation playlist. Oh, swish of a transition, Jack.

Yes. Thank you. Thank you. I've been working on my transitions. There's not a lot here. I just really like to luxuriate in imagining King Charles being like, can we get Adele? Can we get Ed Sheeran? And just being told no.

I imagine him Googling popular artist. Yes, absolutely. Popular British artist. He's like, Ed Sheeran, what do we think? Spice Girls, Robbie Williams on John Hall turned him down. I am disappointed to say. Good for them. Yeah.

I mean, it seems pretty clear. Most people don't want to associate themselves with colonialism right now. Which, wise. Wise for Spice Girls. Yeah. Bad PR. themselves with colonialism right now but which wise wise spice girls yeah bad pr yes but they did get and i'm really disappointed in this in some of the people on this list they did get lionel richie andrew lloyd weber i'm i'm assuming that's not surprising his politics are abysmal the list they the list i i'm happy to say, the list of people, they were like, they do have a star-studded event with Gary Barlow, Mark Owens, and Howard Donald. Howard Donald isn't the person. That's made up. Just an assortment of white guy names. Mark Owen, Howard Donald.

Yes, those are all white guy names. Those are all first names. Those are just a series of first names. Oh, that's so funny. I know a lot of people are going to be like, actually, Mark Owen is a great artist. I was really disappointed that Howard Donald, I was disappointed to see that he aligned with colonialism. You're like, who the fuck is Howard Donald? Be serious.

Also, Kylie Minogue is in. No! Okay, now I'm pissed. I think Kylie Minogue needs to revisit this decision. I really hope that, yeah, her fans pummel the shit out of her on that one. Get out of there. I guess I don't know anything about kylie minogue's politics and i think i'm proud of that but now but now i have concerns should be because you've worked hard

not to know anything about kylie minogue's politics people won't stop talking about it yeah but like if he like the way the way we saw him react to the pen getting pen ink getting on his fingers and him saying like every stinking time with this thing was like like i can only imagine like him getting the news of ed sheeran and adele bailing on being like oh sorry we got we got a thing at that time so god just somebody give me some video. Like, there's got to be like that. That whole country is under like CCTV observation at all times. Like, get me an angle on the on Windsor Square or Windsor Palace, because I just love watching this guy be disappointed by his own mediocrity. own mediocrity if one of these artists was really galaxy braining it i would hope that one of them would sample the phone call of them turning down the coronation yes on a future album yeah that would absolutely rock absolutely like the phone message like you know that that's being used to great effect and like there's a great chief keith song from last year that's again like just a long phone

message from i think it might be his mom or grandma just being like very complimentary but the song just fucking rules like so like people are doing great things with phone messages just please record this message and and bring it to us just. Yeah. Like a skit on the next Adele album. Just being like, I'm sorry, I'm not available. I'm sorry. I have something to do.

Yeah. My son has a football game. There's this great story I've heard about Peter Cook, who the comedian, the British comedian, he was, I think most famous for being in the, the,

the priest in princess brides, you know? Oh, okay. Yeah. Very funny guy. He's, for being the priest in Princess Bride. You know? Oh, okay. Yeah, yeah. Very funny guy. He's like a staple of British comedy. And King Charles one time invited him to some royal event and was like, can you make this date?

And Peter Cook is like, yeah, let me check my calendar real quick. And then flips through and flips through and flips through and goes, oh, I'm sorry. I can't. I'm watching television that night. So he's just like constantly getting owned. That's been his life from.

Yeah. So, and then he takes it out on, on the pens. Love it. All right. Well, Adam, truly a pleasure having you on the Daily Zeitgeist. Where can people find you, follow you, all that good stuff?

I'm still using Twitter. So it's still there at Adam Bozarth. I'm also on Instagram, although I don't post there as much, but it's still there. But definitely go to lefthandedradio.com and check out the sketch show I do. And definitely subscribe to WLHR Fake Public Radio wherever you find and download podcasts. Yeah, yeah.

If you like this show, you'll like WLHR a lot. And is there a work of media that you've been enjoying? I was looking through my tweet likes and there was one that I have been thinking about a lot. It's like stuck in my imagination. It's from at Kthor Jensen

and it's a fun thought exercise is to transplant the Texas Chainsaw Massacre to another state and imagine what it would be like. Vermont, Delaware, Hawaii. There you go. Jamie, truly a pleasure having you co-hosting. Where can people find you, follow you, read you, all that good stuff? Oh, you know, twitter.com still at Jamie Loftus Help. Instagram at Jamie Christ Superstar.

Announced today, or I guess technically yesterday, that I'm going to be going on tour with You're Wrong About for a lot of the spring. Going to like 15 different cities. It's going to be fun. Hell yeah. So there's some places are sold out, but you should get tickets where there's still not places sold out. I'm really excited. So good. And then, yeah, order Raw Dog, my book about hot dogs. And I wanted to share, I kind of, I got a two-hander and both of them, they're reading because I can do that.

The first one I wanted to follow up on yesterday is Albert Okura. So yesterday, Adam, I showed a book that I have called The Chicken Man with the 50-Year Plan, Albert Okura. He's the founder of the Juan Pollo string of rotisserie chicken restaurants. And then I learned at the end of the day, at our episode yesterday, that he just died like a month ago. So I still haven't read the book. So I'll report there's more in the Okura report. But I still haven't read the book. So I'll report, there's more in the Okura report. But I did read his full New York, he had a lengthy New York Times obituary. He's an important man. And I learned some interesting things about him, including that, first of all,

he was the chicken man with a 50-year plan. He started flipping burgers and expressing interest in making chicken restaurants in 1971. So that's what I call a 50-year plan. Sounds like he had the chicken madness. Yeah. His grandparents had immigrated from Japan to the U.S. in the 1910s. His parents had been held in detention camps during World War II. They had like a really, I mean, his family history is really troubling and complicated. And he was, I believe, a first generation American and started by flipping burgers at Burger King and then like bought up all of this real estate on Route 66, including the original McDonald's site, which is why he and then opened like an unofficial McDonald's museum. I've been it's where I bought the chicken man with the 50 year plan. And it is a big room full of Happy Meal toys.

It's like really. But they don't charge for entry. toys. It's like really, but they don't charge for entry. And he just had like this really vested interest in his chicken franchise, Juan Pollo, but also in like preserving like mid-century, 20th century American history on Route 66. And there's a lot of people who are like preservationists with Route 66 that are like, this is actually a huge loss to our community. It's like one of the only business people that was really invested in preserving that period of history. Anyways, yeah, RIP to my friend Albert Okura. He claims to, there's no way to verify this, but I think that that's sort of what the whole book is, basically unverified claims that he's making. He claims to have cooked

over 2 million chickens in his career. And you can feel good or bad about that. But he did say it. And RIP Albert Okura. So I guess for the second day in a row, I'm recommending The Chicken Man with a 50-Year Plan. With a 50-Year Plan. Yeah. Yeah. Amazing. You can find me on Twitter at Jack underscore O'Brien. At Keian on Twitter, Hoodbog is tired of poverty, tweeted, why would you name your kid Greg? And it's just a question that I think we all need to ask. Once you get Greg-nant, you have a Greg. Easy question.

I thought that was appropriate for a Jamie episode. Also, I think I saw a tweet by somebody being like, when you get pregnant from someone named Greg, you are Gregnant. With no citation? And it kind of went off. And I was like, that's... You live long enough and people are ripping off the Gregnant, Gregananat, Pignat video,

be serious. Be serious, people. You can find us on Twitter at Daily Zeitgeist. We're at The Daily Zeitgeist on Instagram. We have a Facebook fan page and a website, dailyzeitgeist.com, where we post our episodes and our footnotes. We link off to the information that we talked about

in today's episode, as well as a song that we think you might enjoy super producer justin what is a song that you think people might enjoy this is a track called coming through by s fidelity who i believe is a berlin-based artist it sounds like a blend of chiptune music and european hip-hop i can see the song being on the soundtrack to jet set radio which is like a rollerblading graffiti game that I used to play on the Sega Dreamcast. So this track is called Coming Through by S-Fidelity

and you can find that song in the footnotes. Rollerblading graffiti. What a combo. Yeah. That's a powerful word, combo. What a time to be alive. Whenever that came out. The Daily Zeitgeist is a production of iHeartRad more podcasts from iheart radio visit the iheart radio app apple
