It's weird when Halloween falls so close to some of these days I'm about to tell you. Because it's like, which one are we celebrating really? Like it's International Stroke Day on October 29th. National Oatmeal Day. National Cat Day, which I feel like happens every week.

National Hermit Day. I think oatmeal takes the day for me because it's just such a thing that so many people feel passionately about. Right. Also, the Cat Day thing is I feel like last week I think it was National Black Cat Day. Yeah. So yeah. It gets very specific. Yeah. As well it should. But all those

oatmeal fans out there can finally let their freak flags fly today. Those oat heads. Those oat heads. Well my name is Jack O'Brien aka I like sharks. Doot, doot, doot, doot, doot, doot. I like sharks.

Doot, doot, doot, doot, doot, doot. I like sharks. Doot, doot, doot, doot, doot, doot. I like sharks. Daddy likes sharks. Doot, doot, doot, doot, doot. All right. What if I just kept going?

That is courtesy of Pickled Herring at Frog Pickled. Which are you, a pickled frog or a pickled herring? We don't know. That's called suspense. I'm thrilled to be joined, as always, by my co-host, Mr. Miles Gray. Oh, man. Joe Biden is claiming an L on this infrastructure bill.

But let me just sing something really quick. They promise everything you want, deliver nothing that you need. It has half the shit inside of it you hoped that it could be. Joe sounds almost left wing at exactly the right time, but the party's still he's following

because they're scared of the right okay that was something i thought as i walked to get a breakfast something this morning and i was like yeah yeah because i was looking at that framework and the the fanfare and it's like no you're gonna love it man it's half a world but you oh you're gonna love this you're to love this. Sounds almost left wing at exactly the right time. You somehow made that song sadder. Yeah, I know.

I didn't do the part where the voice changed and it's like I am everything you want. Right. Yeah, it's funny to think about Joe Biden as like somebody's crush oh if only he's just got it all you know i'm sure there are like sad people in congress who are like

biden now there's there's a talent there's uh one of the greats yeah people were like oh that's the goat right there well speaking of goat and one of the greats, we are thrilled to be joined in our third seat by a hilarious and talented stand-up comedian, writer, actor, improviser, and biomedical engineer. In addition to being one of the funniest comics and writers anywhere doing it, she started a tutoring initiative to provide black students free individualized online tutoring lessons and is the co-executive director of respira works i'm probably butchering that oh that was perfect hell yeah uh which is a non-profit working to to design low-cost and open-source medical equipment for communities underserved by the global supply chain she performs across the country and produces and performs at Funalingus, which is just one of the best shows in LA every first Sunday. Please welcome the hilarious, the talented Paula Veganale. That bio was so thorough. I was like, does he have like where

It's just dope. that yeah that's one of those things that a lot of zeitgeist guests don't have on their bio so wanted to shout it out transcribe that to update my website more stuff on there than i do how are you what what's going on good thanks for having me i'm good i'm i'm in boston right now it's the first time i'm doing comedy in boston so i'm excited and yeah i'm just like i'm happy guys isn't that crazy isn't that crazy hear that that lexa pro is hitting let them know how's that uh boston weather hitting is it is it cold is it it's like it was a little bit like rainy but it wasn't too bad it's like nice and refreshing i'm like i'm out here i'm just like leaves i love fall i'm like

turning into christian girl autumn or whatever you like put some in a ziploc bag you're like i'm just gonna love to look at these when i get home it's just a lot of like deep breaths in you know what i mean just looking out the window with my tea i'm just like yeah i mean it's a dang lexapro commercial right there right the right the with my lexapro i'm like a christian white woman i used to be so cynical and now i think the world is made for me it's like they get a pile of autumn leaves. Yeah. It turns into a period commercial somehow in the middle of it.

Better check all these boxes. Just stay with the leaves for too long. And it's like, wait, why is she really just like sitting in those leaves? Just vibing. Is she okay? All right. Pallavi, we're going to get to know you a little bit better in a moment first we're gonna tell the listeners a couple of things we're talking about today

the build back better bill which miles has given the aka bunk booty butter which you know alliteration wins no matter what we know that that sounds like an organic like health butter for your skin or something yeah like like butt lotion or something like something gwyneth paltrow has definitely tried to copy butter yeah oh absolutely we're going to talk about tucker carlson's upcoming documentary in quotes in which he will be suggesting that january 6th was a false flag which we'll talk about how that's possible uh and then we got a couple halloween stories we're going to talk about the why skeletons are having a moan right now uh in particular that 12 foot tall skeleton yeah all of that plenty more but first paula view would like to ask our guest, what is something from your search history?

Okay, this is gonna make me... I couldn't think of anything, but I did write down... I looked up Fannie Lou Hamer because I'm just dumb and I heard a reference to her. And I was like, I don't know anything about her. So that's the latest thing that I googled. So that's an honest one. But it's also like, I'm trying not to be like, oh, I I'm so great I looked up Fannie Lou Hamer as my search history I'm too neurotic about this maybe that Alexa pro isn't hitting enough you know what I mean wait where did you hear a reference that you were like hold on what you know well what what piqued your interest I don't even

remember I just wrote it down to look it up because I heard something about Fannie Lou Hamer. And I was like, I don't know shit about her. It might have been like a podcast or a book or something. I'm not sure. Right, right, right. My favorite move of mine is when somebody references something that I don't know, I take out my phone and type it down into notes. Yeah.

It also seems like I'm doing something important. So when I disassociate with the conversation at that moment, rather than embarrass myself by being like, what's that? What'd you, what'd you just say? It's also like, I don't always get to all my notes.

So it'll be like, it'll just be like weird references from three years ago that I never actually looked at. I really wish my notes app was better organized it is it's a mess i think part of the reason that people use it so much is because it's not organizable yeah yeah i think that's part of everybody's like i'll find a way to like make it work for me but because there's no pressure that's why everybody you can use it for apologies you can use it for fanny lou hamer references yeah you can lose it for numbers you're gonna lose you know yeah i have the yeah when i

look through it it's like the equivalent of like the what i suspect the inside of like a conspiracy theorist car looks like just a bunch of loose shreds like with weird shit written on it because like every note is uh red and especially and you keep them all like i yeah i have just a note that says catholic and camp on it i don't know that's that's got to be a stand-up thing i don't know what that is catholic and camp yeah that's gotta yeah i don't know i have one that says food coma long shot of a guy hooking up food at a taco stand. I think I was thinking of like a mockumentary maybe about people who go into food comas. Do you think this is how Jordan Peele wrote Get Out?

He's like tea stirring. Right. I just want to say Uber driver who plays his own music for his passengers. June 12th, 2013. Wow. I have one that are, do you think wolves are ever like, you act as though you've been raised by people? I mean, that's just a good joke.

I think that was meant to be a tweet. That's a flex right there. Yeah, hold on. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait a second. I don't remember writing that. I just have one that says UBI-good dollar, and that's it. This is what you guys should do along with search history.

You should do notes. Go in your notes right now. Go scroll back to one of the earliest ones you've got because those are the ones that takes a lot. I mean, like mine are in 2013. Another one, fried corn, degrees celsius for two minutes okay that's just a recipe yeah i learned that recipe without the intro you know the intro is in another note right it's the history of your family or something and then this is just the

recipe this this is oh whoa i just! I have this email address of this woman whose picture I took at Coachella in 2014 and I got her email so I could email her the photo when I got a better signal. Send it to her. Did you send it? I'm sure I did. I opt to look at my same Gmail.

That is a thoughtful Coachella reveler right there. I never thought about that again what is something you think is overrated I am tired of staying out I'm I'm at the age now where I'm just every I finished my task and I'm like I can't wait to go home yeah I'm like I think it's like a post-pandemic thing because during the pandemic I was so immobile that like I was partially afraid I was going to get bed sores. You know what I mean? And now I'm like out there and I'm doing my shows and I had

to build up stamina to do stand up. And then as soon as they're done, I'm like, okay, I'm ready to go home. Like yesterday, my friends wanted to hang out and it was wonderful seeing them. But the entire time I was like, I just want to be in bed not necessarily sleeping but there right you know yeah i'm i'm so excited for this part of my aging yeah yeah when your bed is like a charging mat for your cell phone yeah yeah it's like you know it's fine you know i'm not like totally on empty but it's just it's always good to get a charge in by laying in my bed or sitting in my bed i love it i like i get so excited to like thinking about just coming home and not even sleeping just coming home yeah that's good but i mean you know there's something about uh at least you're comfortable

there there are times when i remember i the last place i wanted to be was my own home that's true and so that's like funny when the pendulum swings the other way we've we've uh sated our inner children we've created a safe space for them yeah i actually had children in order to give myself an excuse to leave parties that was like my main reason i was like ah i gotta get see the kids before they go to bed like jack, Jack, you don't have kids. You're like, right, right. Imagine if I did. All right, I'm going to go anyway. I got to go make them.

I got to go make children right now. I got to go make some babies. What is something you think is underrated? Okay, this is, again, another old person. This is me aged now. I love houseplants. I love to see it. I'm a house plant bitch i got in june i was which was like way too

far into the pandemic to be into house plants everybody got into house plants like in middle of 2020 and i got into it like once the pandemic was ending right or like was like people were going outside again but i've i love plants i'm just'm watering them i'm repotting them i'm getting i got like the moss poles and shit it's amazing i think yeah what there's like a there's a moss pole so i got a big monstera right yeah sprouting all these leaves and shit and it keeps falling over because it's so big so you tie it around a pole that's like a moss and then and you wrap it up and it stays upright more i've got a i have a similar problem with uh yeah like an indoor bird of paradise in my house it's getting too top heavy wobbly yeah you gotta help them and and they're just i like now i like

walk my dog and i'm judging other people's plants. I'm like, you got to water this bitch. I used to kill plants all the time and I'm not necessarily like good at it. I just am very, now I can put my judgment into plant care. Pretty healthy, you know. That's how you pick up skill. If you are bad at picking up skills, but you want to just know

you get to judge people more the more skills you pick up. Yes exactly you're espying them through their window or what no there's like they put them out front in front of the apartment building next to me they put their plants out front and there was just a monstera that was dying and like i was just like just water it and there was a guy who was like like down the down the apartment building he he was like washing the ground or whatever and i was like go water that plant it's dying and he's like no that's not what i do and i was like i'm going to steal this plant and now you have a monster no no it's too big for me to carry but i i really do want to steal plants from my neighbors. It's a problem.

I'm power washing grease stains off of this driveway. This will destroy the plant if I use this. I don't have time to make life. I'm like, it needs water. You like call 911 and report a fire so the fire department shows up with hoses. I really am turning into a Christian white girl. I'm sorry, but this Monstera plant is like dying. How can it be Christian girl autumn without leaves?

This isn't the kind of brown leaves I wanted. But yeah, Monstera's, man. They're beautiful, though, when you take care of them. They're so nice. This is probably the most what instagrammed plant probably it's also just like super rewarding because it's like one of the easiest ones you just like keep pouring water into it it's funny it's always funny to go anywhere like in a tropical climate where you know a lot of like people like tropical plants out here and you just see them blowing out with life like on the sidewalk and you're like that's always an experience and that's how i know i'm getting old because i started to say

stuff like yo look at that monstera yeah i know no i do that shit all the time let's steal that leaf i'm like oh fucking snake plants are thriving over here yeah i want to propagate that yeah monstera deliciosa which is the apparently the official name for monster is it like delicious monster is a very cool and horny name for a plant yeah i kind of love it reminds me of little shop of horrors because that's what i feel like that plant should have been called. Yeah, absolutely. There ever was a delicious monster. All right, let's take a quick break and we'll be right back. In 1982, Atari players had one thing on their minds.

Sword Quest. This wasn't just a new game. Atari promised $150,000 in prizes to four finalists. But the prizes disappeared. And what started as a video game promotion became one of the most controversial moments in 80s pop culture. I just don't believe they exist. My reaction, shock and awe. That sword was amazing. It was so beautiful.

I'm Jamie Loftus. Join me this spring for The Legend of Sword Quest, a podcast about the fall of Atari and the disappearing Sword Quest prizes. We'll follow the quest for lost treasure across four decades. It's almost like a metaphor for the industry and Atari itself in a way.

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.

Brought to you by the National Council for Mental Wellbeing, Shatterproof, and the Ad Council. And we're back. We didn't get a chance to i i realized at the start we were taught before we started recording we were talking about bad will smith lyrics and we didn't get to it but well ill way to hammy well i didn't know what he was saying yeah ill way to and me is that what he's saying i always thought it was ill way to hammy and i don't know i don't the fuck you're saying because you just said you the cuba cub and I don't know what the fuck you're saying,

because you just said the Cuba Cuba cigar was just for the look. You bite it, don't light it. But I guess, again, it was him doing, what do you call it, pig Latin? It was pig Latin. It was ill-way the anime on the ants day or flay. Or flay. So will the man on the ants day. Give it up, Jiggy. Make it feel like foreplay.

Ooh. Feel like foreplay. Feel like foreplay. Feels like foreplay. I also like the part where he brags about having a cigar, but he doesn't light it. For the look. It's just for the look, but he has that anti-smoking message in there. Yeah. And then he says, and then the next line is, yo, my cardio is infinite.

Ha ha. Bigie styles all in that sucks that sucks no i love this dad rap it's my favorite but the that part where he says you know that he doesn't light the cigar and then the part in getting jiggy with it where he says like he played ball with shack and them and flattened them and then is part in getting jiggy with it where he says like he played ball with shack and them and flattened them and then is like psych nah i actually didn't do that like immediately after for whatever reason like those are always on rotation in my brain this feels like a lonely island song where they're like i'm bragging no i'm not i'm just kidding so i didn't thought i took a spill yeah for whatever reason that getting jiggy with it in particular,

I was saying every time one of the settings that we do on people's quick time before we start recording is have them change the thing to maximum. And that just immediately, if people ever want to know what it's like inside my head, that has then sets the part where he says cream to the maximum i'd be asking him like oh that's just echoing through my head for the entire time that we record what does cream to the maximum mean because i don't think it's what we would assume it means now yeah money's money's long it's money okay i like how he was like yeah since i moved up like george and wheezy

that's a cute reference right they had them on fresh prints that was sweet right uh anyways one of the greats to ever do it i mean that's what people that's always debated right of will smith's place in the rap pantheon because he he like mainstreamed this like very like saturday morning rap kind of yeah it was the first rap tape i ever got was like in second grade the nightmare on my street with oh yeah i definitely had i had this album for sure and i was like playing it non-stop it was my favorite. I memorized all of Miami. Big Willie style.

Yeah. I mean, seminal. 1997. Big year. Big year for us. Yeah. He's the winner of the first rap Grammy, I believe. So, you know, that officially makes him the greatest and most influential rapper of all time. If we're going by the record book.

You know what? Every time someone has this argument i'm just gonna bring up every time somebody's like biggie pock kendrick i'm gonna be like nobody's talking about getting jiggy with it thank you all right but let's talk about the build back better bill hey you know we transformational rappers transformational bills thank you you know or not transformational wills transformational there we go yes and we're back transformational in the sense that it transforms from something that people actually wanted to uh now i really half-assed sad sack watered down husk husk husk

this is so frustrating i'm so so mad i mean so you know biden is in a in a spot he's he had an agenda it's now just turning into this half thing and now he's asking progressives to fucking trust him. OK, he came out today saying that, look, I've got a one point seven five Trilley, big Trilley style framework for a reconciliation bill for the human. Brill. Reconciliation bill. Okay. To address the human infrastructure part of his agenda. And I will, I'll say this. There are things in it that have never been addressed before, but that doesn't necessarily,

like if we're just going to compare it to what we've been doing, which is nothing, then anything is transformational. But here are the things that are still in the bill on some level. Universal pre-K for kids three and four years old. And that's funded for at least six years. Subsidized child care. That is going to be funded for about six years. A one-year extension of the current child tax credit, which is like one of the most popular things. Just one more year. We'll fund just one more year we'll fund it

one more year expanded tax credits for you know like clean energy for residential and like new clean energy vehicles they're doing some like extended aca stuff and medicare to cover the cost of hearing now if you look at the price tag you're like 1.75 well that's half of what people were coming out with which was 3.5 and a lot of people point at like the climate spending. Yes. Like while it's the most it's that's ever been ever spent to think of how dire the situation is. You're like, this doesn't look like dire money we're spending. It looks like we're just doing like, uh, here's about 50 billion at a time. And maybe we'll see where we go from there. When really, we know we really need significant improvements, especially to the

transmission grid, in order to bring a lot of clean energy online. So the things that are huge things that are missing are the lack of paid family leave, which would have been transformational since the United States is the only industrialized nation to not offer that. No expanded Medicare, no tuition free community college, and they won't be doing renegotiating any kind of prescription drug costs. So the prescription drug costs will remain the same. So, yeah, we're finding ourselves, I think, in a familiar place where progressives are. We're trying to do a lot, got to a certain point, and then just the priorities aren't as important because important moderates. Yeah, there's a logic I'd accepted in like as I

was just kind of working my brain around this ongoing story that like, well, yeah, of course, the Republicans aren't going to let something this good through because people would be too happy with it and it would be under a Democratic president and that's bad for them in the long run but that it just like i i just want to take a moment to acknowledge how completely fucked our system is if that's if that's sort of the logic of it is that we can't let the other people help people too much or else it's bad, bad for us. And for all the attention that's being paid to progressives, the progressive wing of the Democratic Party, they're like, well, you know, they're not going to get everything they want. So this is going to have to be good enough. Like that's a lot of like the mainstream takes that you'll see on the news about like what's happening, because Pramila Jayapal, who the head of the congressional progressive caucus she's saying like yeah we agree to this framework like in

principle we don't even know what this actual legislative text is of this you're just saying this is like their money's in these buckets but we don't know how that's going to work yet so we can't say we're going to fully be on board and let you pass the bipartisan infrastructure bill and then let this thing just blow away in the wind. They still want to pass them together like that was the original agreement. But yeah, it seems like another moment, again, like progressives think they're doing good faith business with the rest of the party. And then because of people like Manchin and Sinema, they're allowing two people to essentially be like,

nah, we don't want to raise taxes like that. Or nah, I'm not really here for paid family leave. That's, that doesn't feel like it's necessary. Insane. Also, didn't they try to drop it to like four weeks?

And it's like most like infants can't be taken care of at daycare at that age. Right. Like, yeah, no, they won't let you bring a four-week-old fucking daycare like that's i mean what yeah yeah an absurdity like the that you could just like pass mom kirsten might be on too much wine right now if you know what i'm saying this is well it's just i mean so they're trying on some level but at the end of the day i don't

think it's really that it's clearly not that important because especially when you hear a lot of the concerns especially from like activists and progressive leaders being like this is falling short hello like if it's going to be transformational it's because we're going to like you know take a real good faith effort at correcting something, not just saying like, well, we never spent this much money before on that. That that doesn't mean, you know, it's like having a huge building on fire and you let it burn. And then just because you brought a garden hose out, you're like, well, this is transformational. This is a game changer. You're like, because now it's just a little bit of water. No no like there's a real problem that has to be addressed so this is merely a gesture and now it seems like for the optics win because that's what's really being hammered into i think the airwaves right now is a lot of these democrats like the leadership is being like this is a huge win i mean if you said we'd get this at the beginning of like the administration you'd be you'd be laughing with uh with just with such happiness in your heart

so we got to really think about how this is a lot of money being spent and that is true to a certain extent but don't then try and ignore the fact that there are real needs that still have to be addressed and that this is still somehow addressing it all yeah it's very frustrating to yeah yeah yeah i'm just like tired of the moderation. Like I like clearly that has not been working. Right. Yeah. No, it does. And I think now they look at things like paid family leave, like a lot of these things that are left out are the things that are people like are popular in swing districts. electoral math you're like don't you want those people to be able to hang their hat on that when they're trying to you know run again for office but i sure because joe mansion and cinnamon it's gone yeah i don't know what we're gonna i don't know what to do about them i don't know how to like how they're expecting to deal with them with mansion and cinema mansion like clearly he has his motivations because of his coal mining company and all of that his heart made of coal yeah his cold cold coal heart and his houseboat or whatever but

then cinema is like the joker i don't know what she doesn't even actually she doesn't even have as many roles as the joker does like she's just she wants to watch the world burn and i we don't know what to give her like i don't know what she's expecting. I think a lot of people are just now being like... Other than bad fashion. Holding back, being like, well, I don't know what's going on. I think now we're like, okay. So she's been an opportunist the whole time.

She's always told people what they needed to hear to get to certain places. Whether it was the Sierra Club and conservationists in Arizona early in her career. They were saying, yeah, she was such a huge supporter. And I can't even believe the stuff she's saying now, because she used to do all these functions with us. And we thought she was about that life. Then they had veterans who like left her advisory panel who were like, we thought she was serious about this stuff. And now she doesn't even take our calls. And I think because now she's at a point where she's getting, I'm sure, good packaged donations from lobbyists to do whatever she has to do.

And that's that's just probably a place of more comfort. It has nothing to do with what her duty is as a Seneca. She also is like very famous because of how she's acting. Like the more ridiculous she's being, the more fame she gets, the more she secures like the rest of her career. You know what i mean like i feel like one of the best ways to get twitter followers is to run for senate you know right that's one way to go viral well and someone said in an article they're like if you think she's like unnerved by the fact that like cecily strong is like mocking her on snl like you're wrong dude she's fucking loving it of course

and like it's very obvious she likes the attention and have you seen those um those clips of her like i think she was at the airport or she was at somewhere else where people were just trying to like talk to her and they're like you haven't spoken to us in forever and she and she she's like i'm so sorry to like her the people she's talking to it It's like she has no, it feels like she has no accountability or no sense of obligation to her constituents at all. Yeah, and I think the other thing that is happening too is those two are providing a lot of cover for a lot of corporate moderate Dems

who are also not really into this either. But because the two of them are such big, high-profile things, it takes a lot of heat off the party at large to say, this is mostly all. Let's be real. It's not just that. Yeah. There's a sense of, in the clip, Pallavi, that you just mentioned of the adults are talking here and the adult thing is to accept that this is a negotiation. And I feel like that's also the kind of central underpinning belief of the mainstream media is that, well, we can't have

good things. So you like instead it's going to be this painful sort of shit sandwich that we all have to swallow because that's just how politics works and it's like well that's kind of because of y'all yeah there was like a really good tweet that i saw yesterday that i wish i could find it but it was like we want this no okay we want half of it no okay we want this less of it no and then it's like this is what a negotiation is that's what a negotiation is just not getting anything you want that's what a negotiation is. That's what a negotiation is, just not getting anything you want. That's what a negotiation means. All right.

Well, I do want to move on to talking about Will Smith lyrics again. No, I'm just talking about this Tucker Carlson documentary that's coming our way at the beginning of next week. Its central thesis is that January 6th was a false flag. If it was a false flag, they'd probably loot it from the Capitol.

I'll just kind of go through so that people don't have to watch it. But it says, the true story behind 1-6, the war on terror 2.0 and the plot against the people. They're so bad at titles. Yeah, that is such a long title. It opens with like a militant drum roll and says the domestic war on terror is here. It's coming after half of the country. And Carlson then is heard saying, the helicopters have left Afghanistan and now they're landed here at home.

And then a woman says, false flags have happened in this country, one of which may have been January 6th. And it ends with like the battle hymn of like the Civil War battle hymn. So, I mean, I think they, you know what they're getting at there yeah it's i mean also i think uh is ali alexander gonna be on tucker carlson that day too like i think he's in

the documentary but i think he might also be talking with carlson but you know he's one of the he's the dude who you know obviously got a lot of attention in the stop the steel build up and a lot you know he's just sort of he's just a right-wing grifter basically and was just using this to like fundraise and get money but he he was the one who had that tweet that when everyone was like okay the tone has changed when he said like he was willing to give his life right you know to stop the steel or whatever the fuck and you know a lot of people point out it's like of course you're gonna have this person on because a by making this a fault like a false flag you can try and negate or introduce some narrative about a false flag you'll negate anything the committee

finds and try and get that out of voters minds and also if you're if you're ali alexander who has a lot of responsibility in organizing it you'd probably want something out there even like well it wasn't me it was like there's just a lot of like the it's it's this is a very useful thing to start pushing if they're gonna because they again at every turn have to counteract like what people just saw with their bare eyes yeah they're you know they're this is them openly courting the q anon far right like white supremacist terrorist movement and basically being like these are american citizens it's like yeah so it's timothy fucking mcveigh man like what are you talking about they also claim that conservatives are being left to rot in guantanamo bay which is a bizarre and made up claim also like and i love the fucking

the mental compartmentalization that has to happen because for that to have any to move a conservative person you have to on one hand acknowledge that guantanamo bay is just a fucking hellscape for a human being to be in well that's for brown people that's not for us that's not for that no exactly but that's american you know what i mean that's what is the most infuriating aspect of just people on the right with how they are they weaponize things that are actually being used against other people it's just so frustrating how they victimize themselves so it does acknowledge like the tools of oppression, but then they flip it,

you know, and it's completely illogical. It's just like, it just bothers me so much that they do that. And that not only you said like Ali Alexander was a grifter, but it's so many of those people on that side are grifters. Like Tucker Carlson promoting and everybody at Fox news promoting like anti-vax rhetoric while being vaccinated for the show.

You know what I mean? Like that's like the evil aspect of it that just bothers me so much because it's been shown that people don't care about hypocrisy when it comes to like campaigning and calling people out and stuff. People just don't care about hypocrisy. It's not something that motivates them. And that's the thing that they capitalize on because they know that. And it's just so bothersome. It's also wild that this is going to be

sort of like Loose Change, a documentary, a counter-narrative about an event that happened almost entirely on live TV. Yeah. We kind of got the gist from the fact that there were cameras there everywhere. And, you know, but I think that initial reaction that like, how could anyone take this seriously

is similar to the initial idea that the internet was going to make people better at finding the truth rather than just better at finding whatever truth they want to find because there's just there's a an embarrassment of riches in terms of just you know there's probably there's so much footage taken by all of the people at that like who were there on january 6th and like you know cutting all of that down into a convincing like 30 minute package of stuff happening that seems weird or doesn't look quite right will be like super possible what's really weird though it's like the argument that

i found there were comedians at that insurrection by the way there were comedians there and their arguments that i've seen was like and which other people have made as well was uh but we were like in the peaceful part and it's like you be like you being around a drum circle or whatever the fuck you think that is is does not negate the fact that people rushed into the capitol and then our senators had to hide in bathrooms and shit because they were afraid they were gonna get like people were in full gear with zip ties and you being near like playing hacky sack, which I know you were, you know, doesn't negate the fact that that actually happened and you were there and a part of it. thing too that you'll see with conservatives where half the time they'll be like i was there on jay where you you weren't even there right you don't know what happened and it's like but then be like i thought it was a false flag it's like well there were some people there that were doing the right

thing and you're like well which is it are you pumping your dick up because you were there or is it is it all bullshit and none of what you saw is real because you're doing all this double speak is this it's it's grating and like you're doing all this doublespeak. It's grating. And like you're saying, just overall with this whole thing, we're looking at so many levels where America, again, is unwilling to have a reckoning with its white supremacy issue at every level. Whether it's this and be like, well, fuck, man. We can't just have it be accepted that this was all based on the fear of a less white America. Get this out there that's a false flag you see it play out in just with the trials that are coming up with the killers of

ahmaud arbery or fucking kyle rittenhouse or the the fucking other you know all the there's uh the charlottesville organizers like we have judges being like, witness is a loaded word for the people Kyle Rittenhouse killed. No, victims. I'm sorry, Whitney. A victim is a loaded word. He said victims and alleged victims is too close. But said rioters and looters isn't. Looters and arsonists.

That can be used. Yeah, by the defense. It's ridiculous. Then looking at things like in the Charlottesville thing, asking jurors if they think negatively about nazis and if they do they can't serve in the jury yeah because you're trying to both sides really nazism like you can't have an object and all this is saying is we can't live in a reality where objectively white supremacy or racism is actually bad and there's no there's no explaining your way out of it but then simultaneously they won't identify as such like right they they don't like being called that but then they are able to defend it

but you need a fair trial where you don't have jurors who think uh anti-black racism is bad because then that'll bias them against a anti-black somebody murdered somebody over. The thing that is super infuriating about the Carlson documentary is it seems like the thing, what one of the thousands of things that's super infuriating about this documentary is that Fox News is the arbiter of or the representation, the main source of information for the group of people who have generated every panic, like every moral panic over the last 100, 150 years in America. And they are claiming that America is in the midst of a moral panic over white supremacy. So they're taking the thing that they do, like this is, you know, what they've been doing since the beginning of time,

but they take the thing they're guilty of and put it claim that that's what the other side is doing yeah you know so rather than being a deeply white supremacist country coming to terms with just the very tip of the iceberg of its white supremacy for the first time they're claiming that it's a moral panic uh over white supremacy guys i have to say with all of this, I am not jiggy with it. So, you know, I'm not jiggy with any of this. I also like the idea that Joe Biden tricked us all by using his boundless energy and razor sharp mind to create a three dimensionaldimensional kinetic illusion of white supremacist trying to murder the vice president wait what fanos no like the idea of a false flag and like they

keep showing joe biden in the documentary it's like so yeah he's that smart yeah he's he has so he's mostly it's mostly dementia but then he has these moments of lucidity where he plants a false flag. Yeah, where he just controls space and time to his whims. All right, let's take another quick break and we'll come back and talk about skeletons and other Halloween-y stuff. In 1982, Atari players had one thing on their minds.

Sword Quest. This wasn't just a new game. Atari promised $150,000 in prizes to four finalists. But the prizes disappeared. And what started as a video game promotion became one of the most controversial moments in 80s pop culture. I just don't believe they exist. My reaction, shock and awe.

That sword was amazing. It was so beautiful. I'm Jamie Loftus. Join me this spring for The Legend of Sword Quest, a podcast about the fall of Atari and the disappearing Sword Quest prizes. We'll follow the quest for lost treasure across four decades. It's almost like a metaphor for the industry and Atari itself in a way. Listen to The Legend of Sword Quest on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. 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. Some people won't give you the real talk on drugs. But it's time we know the facts. Fentanyl is often laced into illicit drugs and used to make fake versions of prescription pills.

You can't see it, taste it, or smell it. Suppliers mix fentanyl into their products because it's potent and cheap, and the dealer might not even know. Keep yourself and others safe by knowing the real deal on fentanyl. Get the facts. Go to realdealonfentanyl.com. This message is brought to you by the Ad Council. Hey, fam. I'm Simone Boyce.

And we're the hosts of The Bright Side, the daily podcast from Hello Sunshine that is guaranteed to light up your day. Every weekday, we bring you conversations with the culture makers who inspire us. Like our recent episode with Grammy award-winning rapper Eve on her new memoir and the moments that made her. It became a theme in my life, the underdog syndrome of being questioned, of the, would they say this to a man? No, they would not. Like, why? That was one of those moments where you're just like, oh, wow. It was a bit shocking but it didn't take any steam away or anything like that if anything it was more of the okay i'll show you

no worries listen to the bright side from hello sunshine on the iheart radio app apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts and we're back and let's start out talking about the 12 foot tall halloween skeletons the home depot the best thing home depot has ever done guys i feel like this sets unrealistic expectations for skeletons yes yes no skeleton that tall could walk uh comfortably just like yeah also like where are my short skeleton kings at because shout out to y'all too it's all about being 12 feet you could be six feet as well yeah yeah i have a two foot tall skeleton on my front door because i don't have a connect at home at home depot or an agenda about what a skeleton should look like did you get that skeleton from lowes you fucking loser yo that's just 11 foot six

but i just feel like in general skeletons are having a bit of a moan with you know phoebe bridgers started performing in a skeleton suit i do do say moan. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. I just needed to take a moan to address the moan thing. Cause I've never heard that before. Yeah. No, it's, it's just a cool thing that I like to say. I'm jiggy with it.

I'm jiggy with that. All right. Cool. Keep going. You know, party in the city where the heat is moan. I'm going to mom. Mom, mommy.

I'm a mommy. Mom, mommy. Super producer Ana Jose got me a coffee mug that says just having a mom with my cough. And I just messaged, I did not buy that for you. You bought that for yourself oh you bought me the chuggy one big chuggers yeah I bought that for myself

that's true look I'm trying to turn it into a thing no I think Anna got that for me yeah yeah yeah thank you Anna I really appreciate you buying that for me and you know recognizing that it is a thing whether other people want to say i'm failing at making it a thing anyways home depot the real

not me uh mom depot so apparently they've been trying to like create a proprietary like halloween decoration that was gonna like be be uh. And their previous attempt was in 2016. They marketed a peeping Tom decoration. Oh, my God. They had to pull from stores because it just looks like a human looking through your window. It looks like fucking Tony Blair. It's so creepy. Also, like, I thought Halloween was supposed to be for like fantastical

right you know what i mean and this is just like that we all have to worry about yeah stuff that happens in a comedy green room like i don't mean right yeah you were saying that oh so this the 12-foot skeleton there was a long shitty road road for Home Depot to hit the target with being like the 12-foot skeleton. Now we've got a thing only we've got, you're saying. Yeah, well, I mean, they definitely tried with the Peeping Tom thing. That's a big swing. Like, that's a... But also, like, that's not a decoration.

That's a prank. Yeah, it's a prank. A decoration would be something... That's like a realistic prank. If you walk on the sidewalk, you can be like, what's that weird thing stuck to the window? Because I doubt it's like a full torso on on the sidewalk you can be like what's that like weird thing stuck to the window because i doubt it's like a full torso on its knees that you can like it's also for a prank for the people inside the home it's decorating and not figuring this out very slowly like oh okay got it i thought I also like that they went from peeping Tom

2016, year before Me Too, to let's just make a regular decoration but bigger. Really big. That is the most American shit. Let's take an idea we already have and make it bigger.

But look at us. It's like the most sought after item now yeah it's true at least they knew that sex predators were going to be a thing they they had their finger on the zeitgeist they just didn't read it they didn't do the right thing with it right i would say by just pretending to have a sexual predator like hanging out at people's houses but like i said phoebe bridgers has started rocking a skeleton suit and it's very cool and so this is the second year of the 12-foot skeleton they were like sold out immediately nobody can find them the people who did find them are doing pretty cool stuff like one guy in ohio built an even larger skeleton arm bursting out of his house and holding the home depot skeleton and then there's a story of this sounds more this sounds like something that would happen to me

a guy thought he snagged a 12-foot skeleton for 40 and you know waited a couple months for it thanks a lot biden uh supply chain only to later receive a 12 inch skeleton in the mail oh hey you gotta know between the different apostrophe and he's like trying to convince all the women on his block that it's 12 feet anyways he's like no this is what 12 feet looks like it's fine it's average yeah that's actually average so some people are wondering why this is such a such a thing right now beyond just being objectively awesome. And, you know, some theories are that they gave people something fun and Halloweeny to engage with at a time last year when, you know, trick or treating and partying were kind of canceled by the pandemic. canceled by the pandemic and they were actually considering not launching the product so they knew this was going to be a big deal which is interesting these companies like know too much it's really it bothers me like i just heard an anecdote about somebody who works at netflix who was told like you know five months ago they were like hey this show squid game is gonna come out and it's gonna

be our most popular show ever so like just watch it now so that you know like they knew way before and like there are no surprises they just actually yeah i hate being predictable to corporations especially home depot mysterious and. We need a global movement to fuck the algorithms over. It's like, do the opposite for seven months. Just, you know, figure out what you can, but who knows? Then you're going to get into weird shit on accident. And then in the more like kind of zeitgeisty realm of things that appeal to me, skull imagery tends to be very popular during pandemics and

plagues. You know, their roots in Latin American culture and feature prominently with the Mexican Day of the Dead, but they crept into European decorative art in the mid-1300s around the Black Death, symbolizing mortality and celebration and yeah so people are thinking that maybe that's why skeletons are as super producer anna hosnier would say having a moan you're saying home depot created in order to sell skeletons i'm glad you're picking up but i'm glad you're exactly thank you alexander coming on to explain it even further. I mean, is it also the feeling that, like, you know, we are just the big-ass skeleton?

Like, we all just kind of feel like a 12-foot skeleton? Like, I don't know. I look at that, and I'm like, mood. Yes. You know? I'm an oversized skeleton. You said that, mood, but then it sounded like serve. Yeah.

Mood. 12 foot skeleton, mood. If you're thinking of it as like, I am 12 feet tall and I'm a skeleton, I'm powerful. No. That's not. But if you're thinking of it as like, everybody can see me and this is so embarrassing. I'm dead inside. I'm barely barely being held together i'm barely human it's a little something for everybody yeah everyone any it's it's like a just a all-seeing or funhouse mirror whatever you can project whatever you want

onto it i have noticed that a lot of my friends their halloween costume is just skeletons like they're just walking around. And I'm like, now I kind of want those PJs. I'm like, they're simple. You can wear them whenever. Yeah. Those are dope. That's nice.

I mean, like you said earlier, they're having a moment. I saw a guy jogging in my neighborhood with a skeleton. Like it was a full on real running outfit, but it had just has bones printed on it. Miles, was he chasing a guy dressed as a shower? Because you might have just been witnessing Karate Kid. I feel like this is also like a Tim Burton

aesthetic as well. I feel like he could capitalize on it as well. That's his whole thing. Or, you know, it's America too. America is just like a big, oversized dead thing in the way. America. Yeah.

I love it. I love all of it. But we are skeleton, you know. We are skeleton. I am skeleton. I like shark. Home Depot has said they're going to step their game up next year, which leads some people to be like,

yo, so there's just going gonna be a skeleton that is like a skyscraper just like sitting on houses no they're fully gonna steal that guy's idea with the giant hand and the head they're gonna fully take it and then market it and then pretend like they came up with it right yeah 24 feet yeah i don't know it's like you actually have to pitch in with your neighborhood to get all the pieces for the 200 foot skeleton how are you like if i had that if i had a giant skeleton coming out of my home i just no christmas decorations this this is christmas this is gonna be the christmas this is my house now yeah yeah i Yeah. I, I just, cause that picture, like the big ass arm coming out of the roof, like that.

I'm like, this looks so much work. It looked bigger than his, it took him 40 days to make it. Right. It said it like, okay, first of all,

that sounds a hundred percent like something my friends would make. Right. And that sounds like a project we would have done in college just for fun. It also sounds like a biblical illusion. Like he's trying to compare himself to Noah. 40 days a night. Yeah. But it's also like, I looked at his garage and I'm like,

I don't think that fit in your garage, dude. Where did you keep it? Right. What if the way they're stepping up the 12-foot skeleton is just adding flesh? So it's just a big naked dude. So it's just a big person. And then they turn it back into the peeping tom it's a 12-foot skeleton with an erection we're like yeah this way it can look into your second story window it's just a guy at home depot who's really trying to get his peeping

tom idea off the ground but he's, I'm playing the long game. Okay. They're good with a 12 foot tall physical form. That's human. Okay. Let's turn it up a little bit. And then we just turn it facing the other way. Okay.

We like this idea, Peter. Go on. Right. And then I wear some Home Depot stuff branding. Okay. We like it with a big old erection god damn it peter stop doing this you do this every year okay uh normal erection then okay swung too hard fine it'll be average i mean that was my three-year-old's question

about our skeleton decoration was where's his penis and where's his butt so yeah you know that maybe they'll answer that question your kid wasn't like hey can you explain mortality to me because what is a skeleton do we turn into skeletons your kid was just like where's the pp yeah where's the skeleton you got off easy on that one let's cut to the let's cut to the chase yeah the the five-year-old starting to ask the big questions yeah about and you're like let's go to home depot i got some live questions to explain to you whoa look how big that thing is right guys no i was asking about death they're like i can't wait for death it's huge and that's what happens when you die you turn into a 12-foot skeleton underground this is mommy palavi it's been such a pleasure as always having you on the daily zeitgeist uh where can people

Saying that the most popular cocktail is the margarita, followed by the mojito from Cuba, and the piña colada from Puerto Rico. Listen to Hungry for History on the iHeartRadio app,

Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. There's so much beauty in Mexican culture, like mariachis, delicious cuisine, and even lucha libre. Join us for the new podcast, Lucha Libre Behind the Mask, a 12-episode podcast in both English and Spanish about the history and cultural richness of Lucha Libre. And I'm your host, Santos Escobar,

emperor of Lucha Libre and a WWE superstar. Listen to Lucha Libre Behind the Mask on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you stream podcasts.
