Yeah. First time in the history of the show we're trying a new publication schedule out for the summer. We're going to scale back to a mere eight episodes a week. We're going to try some new episode formats. So for you the listener

it'll be one episode on Friday and one episode on Monday and then Tuesday morning's episode we'll be trying some different stuff out yeah it's funny to say like we've never done anything it's like when you do a daily show like it's hard to even take a breath to be like okay what about what if we

nope got ready for the next show gotta get the next one out yeah cause we get guest offers and stuff for like people that we want to talk to that like might not quite be like a fit necessarily for like the main show show but also like people we want to talk to because they're very interesting so you'll see stuff like that and some of them might even be some of y'all oh yeah yeah we want to hear from you guys uh in addition to experts or if you are an expert we're looking for you guys to tell us something interesting about your job uh you know what our jobs are our guests tend to also be people who work in the media like us what's something interesting about your job what's the craziest thing that ever happened to you on your job

what's something most people misunderstand about your job um yeah hit us on twitter in the discord let us know dms whatever yeah come at me come at us just not during my everything shower because i won't answer are are your children doing everything showers what experts tell you it's the new plague uh so an everything shower is a shower that you do everything in yeah which i didn't know i wasn't doing enough in my shower until i shaved my feet and my shoulders do it all just like homer so one of our producers told us when she does a foot scrub involving an exfoliant um i have never done that which might explain why my kids asked me if the bottom of my feet are made of plastic the other day they touched them and were like yo

what is wait what's going on were you just like barefoot i'm like one of your kids just like touching your foot yeah well the second like my feet are exposed they want to yeah they want to mess with them i think because they are kind of calloused and weird looking and right they know that it's an easy way to make me cry um so but yeah my my feet are are pretty pretty rough and tumble and so maybe i need to incorporate more of an everything shower and i get it yeah do your you know not everyone washes their hair if they have hair you know in the shower i cleanse my scalp every shower i take but i get to you want to do these other things it's a little more time consuming you're in there a little bit longer but why is there a reason why there's like the tag of like

and here's what experts are warning you about it yeah so they're they're basically saying i think the experts in question they're not like pulmonologists or like oncologists it's skincare experts who say that showering for long periods of time can severely dry out the skin right so right you know oh like so you get kind of pruney like you don't you don't want to get to that point from showering yeah so you want to if you're going to do an everything shower showering for over 15 minutes at a time you're going to want to follow it by covering yourself with a thick moisturizer over the entire body yeah consider jack o'brien's plumpers cream yes one of the most of the best for a thick moisturizer you need some nice elastic skin when you've got

legs triple in size when you flex them you know man that's why i okay well i mean you know shout out to the people who are in the shower for 30 plus minutes yes also covering you yourself in a thick moisturizer like then so you're getting out of a shower that has basically put you into a coma and then you're going to have to stand up because like if you cover yourself in a thick moisturizer and then lay down like they uh it's like i don't like the feeling wait so do you take your showers at night or something at night is that why you're saying you're laying down after the shower no because a shower over 50 minutes feels like it would put my ass down.

You know? I love that that's your weakness. As a superhero, weakness, really long shower. Really long, warm showers. But, I don't know. We also realized that you were not here for the

shower orange controversy. No, what the... I don't want to talk about it. Yeah. I don't understand it. I mean, it's just another thing to do in the shower. You start taking your meals in there. It's like birds aren't real type vibes is what I get from shower orange.

I love that you refuse to even acknowledge that. No, I'm disgusted by it. It's disgusting. I don't know. Like, I get, you know, Becca was explaining, you know, there's aromatherapy and shower stuff. I get that. Like, I understand that. But then, like, the way this subreddit is worded, they're talking about, like, a transcendent religious experience.

And I think it's just for slopos who eat oranges all fucked up and they're like hey wouldn't it be sick to just do it in a fucking shower so the slop just like washes off of you and then you can do that i'm like i don't ever eat in the shower i've never had the desire to eat in the shower and even when i've like watermelon other fruits that i like to enjoy like again i'll get it all over my shit, whatever. And when it's hot out, I'm never like, oh, I wish I ate this in the shower. I think the one thing the shower oranges have to recommend them over

watermelon showers or shower watermelons, uh, is that you're going in with a completely sealed piece of fruit by a, by a thick skin that also smells wonderful. Somebody say it's like the, the act of peeling it is releasing. My problem is like getting there through the bathroom to the shower with a piece of food.

Like I, there's just something, it's not like my bathroom is just like disgusting at this point in my life. Uh, it certainly has been in the past. Uh, but the fact that there's not a single part of the thing i'm about to eat that is touching the air when i get on my way to the

shower makes it feel uh a little safer for me what so your concern is the chicken leg or something like that that i've i've tried before i don't know all i hear is my grandmother's voice if she caught me eating an orange in her shower she would be like that's nasty and get out my shower with all that yeah and i know you're not allowed to about to have all that peel in my drain right because what do you do with the peel you just let it fucking kick it and then it was gonna get caught i don't look i mean it's pretty big and chunky so i feel like you can just like pick that out that's another thing that recommends it to me is like it's not like you you go in there and peel a carrot and then man super producer victor has done this victor is chiming in saying you put the trash

right next to the shower i don't okay you know maybe i'll try it yeah just to see it's worth it i mean i was sold on it the last time we talked about it uh and you done it never no i never tried it uh so because i don't buy oranges anyway so that's the other thing is like i would have to go out of my way to make this shit happen we are a very fruitful family we we've got fruit on deck at all well that makes sense so we've always got we well my child does not eat solid foods yet so yeah you know well i'm sure when we get to that point it's gonna be you watch me i'll be like fruit ninja up in this shit the way i'm cutting up this fruit we've convinced these little fuckers that it's dessert man hilarious they have no fucking idea i don't even know about candy man all right r.i.p to tina turner

yeah uh yeah one of the greats to ever do it. Passed away at the age of 83. I didn't know she lived in Switzerland. Yeah, I didn't either. Good for her. Yeah. But like, yeah, I remember like over the years, I remember she had like some kind of intestinal cancer and then needed a kidney transplant like a few years ago. But yeah, I don't know what exactly happened but they said

she she died peacefully which is what you want to hear just the the best we can hope for as mortal human beings but yeah that's that's wild new york times is opening sentence says tina turner the earth-shaking soul singer whose rasping vocals sexual magnetism and explosive energy made her an unforgettable live performer and one of the most successful recording artists of all time died on wednesday at her home in kusnacht switzerland i'm gonna go with uh near zurich uh she was 83 do you think if if i passed away that my sexual magnetism would be mentioned in the first sentence of my obituary i mean i don't like to speak ill of the dead so i just won't say anything jack but i don't know if that would be in the

i don't think so that's that's an amazing accomplishment to have sexual magnetism oh yeah second thing mentioned yeah undeniable but absolutely absolutely truthful i mean what they will say about you is his feet were made of plastic puzzling scientists uh and little children alike yeah if your kids are right in the obit they might hit you with that one yeah great father feet of plastic heart of gold yeah all right let's take a quick break. We'll be diving even deeper into the unbelievable stories behind 7M Films and L.A.-based Shekinah Church, an alleged cult that has impacted members for over two decades. 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. Forgive Me For I Have Followed will be more than an exploration. It's a vital revelation aimed at ensuring these types of abuses never happen again.

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 iheart radio app apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts and we're back and there's been a character in silicon valley who infuses blood from young people into himself to try and stay young. There is now a 45-year-old multimillionaire biotech person who is now bragging about this. His latest venture involves getting blood plasma from his 17- old son bloomberg reported and then he also gave it to his own father uh and is like this is the first tri-generational blood exchange what are you fucking this is some rich people shower orange shit rich people this is the shower extremely wealthy fuck tri-generational blood exchange the fuck is that they said it

couldn't be done he also looks like he may have had uh plastic surgery to look more like his son he has like a yeah just side by side i'm like it's either strong he looks like like if bono had a face filter on like on like snapchat yeah it's kind of what that's kind of his his energy yeah but damn man i mean look i get it after hearing over and over in the playoffs that 38 is basically you on your deathbed because of lebron james right you get in touch with your mortality and i i get some people man especially in the u.s man the the fear of mortality is something else like it is just so so not a part of our culture of like accepting that part where yeah it's funny too like because in japan it's a completely different uh but we fucking hate

we hate death we hate mortality don't tell me this shit i'm so irrelevant yeah no not even in the core demo anymore but it does make sense from a certain like from an economic perspective i feel like we will see more and more of this whether people acknowledge it or not you see what more tri-generational blood exchanges the rich people using their wealth to get the blood of young people in their veins because like they've hoarded all the wealth and yeah you know they've extracted the wealth from the labor now extract the blood from the body from the bodies yes come on um so i i could see it it's also like because we're so like i was just talking to somebody about like they they've recently gotten scammed on like a uh real estate thing and like

real estate scams really fuck you up jack just say just say your friend harlan crowe got burned because people found out that he bought um but i was thinking about the fact that like i don't know i i think a lot of the you know the fact that everyone has been made kind of cut off from social like having like a community around them makes it easier for scammers to like come at people like just generally because you know you're not you don't have like friends to be like this is a real estate agent i worked with so i'm right you know like i can vouch for them. And so it's just all everybody's operating in a vacuum and just leaves us all a lot more vulnerable to scams, which is why that is truly America's number one growth industry. I mean, I just looked at who else

followed them on Instagram and, and Elin Mucks also follows them. So I figured this is a safe bet. Yeah. Well, speaking of Elon Mucks, he just helped Ron DeSantis announce he's a DeSantis Republican. DeSantis revealed his decision that he is running for president in a federal election commission filing before an online conversation with Twitter CEO Elon Musk. I mean, we knew this was coming. It has now come. I don't know. Yeah. We'll see. Whatever.

See what they have planned. They seem more confident than it would seem that they should be based on how things have gone so far. And the fact that there's just like no support for him and he is allergic to charisma but we'll see what's this fucking video that they're played with this oh my god i can't even watch this crap they played a video announcing it there's some there's something going around on twitter i don't know if it has to do with the campaign if it's like part of a campaign announcement video but it's not interested not interested no thank you let's hear from a maga guy who's really unhappy about

ronda santos running traitor so here we are the evening that ronda sanctimonious all the work that we put in for the last umpteen years umpteen? this fucking guy coming in to fuck our shit up yeah I don't like that this guy coming in here to fuck our shit up I don't like that been doing it for the past umpteen years yeah

alright then that's uh yeah that seems to be the general vibe and he's not allowed to criticize trump so and he's good boy follow rules so i don't know what he's going to i don't know what he's going to do it'll be interesting to see it's wild to see like how also the conservative media is like already splintering like where like the babylon b is like kind of taking shots at ron desantis no like trying to look yeah you get it but then also be like clearly piers morgan is full on the desantis train because he's been incessantly just tweeting stuff about like everyone says he's a nerdy shit bag who stinks

and is repulsive i've actually spent two hours with him and i found him to be nerdy and more of a cock bag than a shit bag. And he's actually much shorter. And then he said, if I were Trump, I would be worried. It's like, whatever, just get to the part where they scream at each other and then the racists get to pick who their their king is. But the whole thing seems to be like he's like, you know, whose campaign worked well? like he's like you know whose campaign worked well jeb bush in 2016 when he was the consensus pick among the mainstream media and absolutely nobody wanted to vote for him yeah that that feels like he's very popular with very wealthy people and establishment people and uh the mainstream media

they he like appeals to them in some way by their logic so anyways we'll see if that somehow starts to work Shakira is trending for a couple reasons both having to do with Miami oh okay a stupid one is just

that her and Jimmy Butler recently followed each other after she witnessed in person his uh jimmy buckery demolition of the boston celdic right and so people are shipping them uh and i am shipping them i would love to see them get together she's like she's like gerard pk does not have an inside jumper i'm sorry he doesn't but jimmy does and i like that and also his and also jimmy's parents wouldn't kick me out of a home with their grandchildren like Gerard's did. But the other reason I didn't know that I didn't know that her and Jimmy buckets were following each other.

Well, that will not be good news to Tom Cruise because apparently they met at the, uh, like Miami Grand Prix. And this is just from, I think this is from vulture. They said, quote, Cruz believed there was chemistry and sent the singer flowers, but the gesture didn't change her mind. The source added that Cruz appeared, quote, giddy after spending time with Shakira, similar to how, quote,

how he acted when he began dating his former spouse, Katie Holmes. Quote, he came away convinced they had a real connection. They needed to build on the source said, quote, she doesn't want to embarrass or upset him, but there's no attraction or romance on her part she was just being friendly she's flattered but not interested oh buddy tom tommy yeah uh it's well we'll see you know, he, when he sets his mind and, um,

cult full of, uh, slave labor on something, you never know what's going to happen. Uh, but I, I vote Jimmy Butler. Do you vote Jimmy Butler over Tom Cruise? Yeah.

As a partner. Okay. I, my heart wants that, but again, to your point, he has an entire intelligence apparatus that could probably like gaslight her into the kingdom right so i don't know um but i don't know

or whatever deal katie holmes got yeah you know so we'll see we will be following this ongoing story uh with baby breath but shakira don't worry just don't don't worry if you hurt that guy's feelings just just do you yes absolutely can you imagine how over the top though like if this is like all real like Tom Cruise being convinced that you guys have something going and like the kind of over the top gifts that you go because like he's he's well known in Hollywood for being like a very generous gift giver like for people like that he'd like for his guests on a show or something or has a good experience somewhere so i can only imagine when he's like his heart is set to like z new horny that you get like all the just fucking 9 000 like a fucking metric ton of roses or something like what the fuck am i supposed to do with this shit yeah yeah it's like

it has a negative impact on the global environment. The amount of roses that he sent. Apparently the cakes. This is something that I've heard from a number of sources. Yeah.

The cakes that you get when you're within the good graces of Tom Cruise's orbit. You get some of the best cakes that have ever been baked. Yeah.

Yeah. Maybe that's a problem. You should have led with a cake rather than these flowers. Yeah. All right. Those are some of the best cakes that have ever been baked. Yeah. Yeah. Maybe that's a problem. You should have led with a cake rather than these flowers. Yeah. All right. Those are some of the things that are trending on this Wednesday, May 24th. We are back tomorrow with a whole ass episode of the show. Until then, be kind to each other.
