It's the same shit over and over, and it's goddamn beautiful. And I in it. Yeah. It's just that. It's the same shit over and over. And it's goddamn beautiful. And I love it.

Love it. Love it. Miss R&B. Miss R&B, man. Thrilled to have you here. Yeah. I just,

uh, my phone stopped connecting to my car. And so I've been listening to a lot of radio and K-Day, I think is the station in Los Angeles that plays like 90s rap and R&B hits. Yeah, that's that's been fun. Past couple of days. I was just saying I was just telling this to somebody recently. I I miss knowing who my like morning DJs and people are like, I don't listen to the radio.

I don't commute to the radio. I don't commute every day. And when I do, I'm just soul-crushed instead of wanting to listen to shit. And I miss it. I miss it. Yeah, me too. Who are the DJs? I know Novena, Carmel is one.

I don't know. We should bring our DJs. It's like a nice little piece of synthetic community that we used to have. Just, you know. We should bring our kids. It's like a nice little piece of synthetic community that we used to have. Just, you know. Oh, they're hanging out at the Dayton Mall. The Z92. Z93, I guess, was my radio station that I grew up with. They're hanging out at the mall tonight.

That's cool. That was lovely. The bad boys from WGCI. I was always listening to them boys. Bad boys. Well, Jaquese, we are thrilled to be joined in our third seat by one of the hottest young stand-ups and margarita aficionados in the nation. You've seen him on stand-up stages and TVs across this great country.

You may also know him as the winner of the title of wittiest in the Franklin County High School 2009 yearbook. Please welcome the brilliant and talented Caleb Siner. Oh, man. What's up, man? You had such a cool song intro, and now I'm bragging about winning wittiest in high school. That's pretty cool. Hey, man.

I didn't win wittiest in high school. I would have loved to. Well, witty. Is there even such a thing as a witty high school student? It's like, you know. I didn't win witty as in high school. I would have loved to. Is there even such a thing as a witty high school student? I think it is. I think it is. Because high school, you know how

motherfuckers are in high school. They think they're witty. But to be voted the wittiest out of a group of people who think they are also witty. Yeah, everybody thinks they're funny. Because everyone thinks they're funny. Not everybody thinks they're best to take homeitty. Yeah, everybody thinks they're funny. Because everyone thinks they're funny. Not everybody thinks they're best to take home to mom,

but everybody thinks they're funny. Wait, was that an award? Best to take home to mom? Yeah, which I think is a little suggestive. It brings your mom's horniness into it. It's like, yeah. You take her home and be like, mom, this is the one.

But it's also like, it's weird that we're voting like who do we all want to fuck yeah who do we all want to marry because you're going yeah there's there's uh what is it a most attractive or like i don't remember but there's one where it's like hottest yeah yeah there's like a hottest yeah can i tell you this is best to take home the mom this is really fucked up, we all want to fuck him, but you know who else would? Your mom. My mama. My mom would want to fuck this guy. In high school, y'all, this is very sad.

And I'm sorry, everybody who's going to hear this will be like, that's not funny, Jackies, but it's funny to me. Oh, no. What a preamble. jackies but it's funny to me uh unfortunately unfortunately someone passed away in high school due to a car accident and the the woman who was driving the girl who was driving her was very sad it's very very sad and at the end of the year as our senior year, in the yearbook, people voted her the worst driver. No! They let them put that in the fucking yearbook?

No! They made sure to take it out. But she won the best driver, the worst driver. And it's so fucked up. Because it's like a fun award for just... Like, that's not what I'd heard of. Oh my god. Not the person who passed, but the person who was driving

when the person passed. The person who was driving with a person. It's so fucked up. I'm so sorry, everybody. I'm so sorry. That just tells you how cruel high school students are. Truly like the meanest. Wow. Oh, I forgot her name, but I hope she's doing well.

Yeah, no, let's not mention it. They are so cruel. I don't think they're witty, but no one has more capable. That's all their brain has to do. They don't have to worry about work, and they don't really have thoughts. It's just like be mean. And some of them are really good at it, dude. Yeah.

Yeah. Some of them are great at it. Yeah. Kids are really, they can cut right to the bone. Worst driver. So fucked up. And again, it's not funny, but it's comedian Ryan and me. It is actually really funny.

It's like, unfortunately. Not everything funny is nice. Yeah. It's like really fucked up and I hate how funny it is, but it's really, it is pretty funny. It's like really fucked up. And I hate how funny it is. But it's really, it is pretty funny. It's pretty fucking funny. Yeah. Damn.

That sucks. That is so harsh. That does suck. Yeah. Anyways, keep your eyes on the road, teenagers. Yeah. Please, Jesus. It is weird we even let them drive when you think about it.

Really should not. It is. We don't let them do anything else Just drive the most dangerous That's crazy They're 15 sometimes Go drive a 2000 pound weapon Around the fucking road

And make sure we let them drive right when they're the horniest And distracted they'll ever be in their life Like just the worst Impulse control that I've ever had in my life. Just going 100 miles per hour for no reason at all. That's crazy.

I really hope that person is not a listener of this podcast. I hope not, but if they are... I'll tell you this, everyone I've ever talked shit about on a podcast found out about it. Every single time. doesn't matter how obscure they find it like six degrees of separation it's going to get there somebody's sending that link well because there's a very parasocial thing that

happens in podcasts and so it's just like talking shit about somebody in high school you know they're like well that's my friend so and so is this other person that they were talking shit about somebody in high school. They're like, well, that's my friend. And so is this other person that they were talking shit about who has their own podcast. So I'm going to go tell them. Well, I know for me, I get links all the time. Hey, somebody said this about you on stuff. I get it every time.

Every time I've been mentioned, I find out. Damn. Yeah. You apparently get mentioned on podcasts more than me i didn't say it was good all right caleb we're gonna get to know you a little bit better find out why so many people talk shit about you podcast among other things but first a few of the things we're talking about we're going to talk about another podcast we We rarely do this, but Steven Crowder is getting a divorce and his announcement of the divorce was just wild. It was truly like he, I don't know, like, first of all, he like implied that his wife shouldn't be allowed to leave him. And then also kept being like, and guys, it is not my kid's fault. I just, I can't emphasize this enough that I know that you all think it's my kid's fault.

It's like, nobody thinks it's your kid's fault, man. But anyways, so we'll, we'll talk about that. Cause somebody who's built his entire persona around not having empathy for people who are struggling. And, uh, yeah, it's, it's just interesting to see where he's at. Jaquese. Yes. You were on the first episode of this podcast where we talked about UFOs.

Oh. I want to bring it back for old time's sake. There's a new popular mechanics. The most popular, popular mechanics profile of a guy, Lou Elizondo, who's the guy who like worked for the Pentagon for a bunch of years and resigned with a letter that was like, there's so much UFO shit that they're not telling you. And I worked on it. So let's get these tinfoil hats ready. Get the tinfoil hats fucking ready we're gonna talk about it caleb i don't know how do you feel about ufos aliens all that shit i think it's gonna be like

everything else in life that uh it'll affect uh rich people will get to have fun and uh regular people won't it's like like i think of it like a boat. I hear there's boats. Well, I'm not going to be able to afford one. And I'm not around them. It's like, it's a UFO. You think rich people have better access to UFOs? I feel like whatever. If the aliens come down, they're not talking to poor people.

They're not. You know what I mean? It's not going to affect my life. I mean, thus far if you believe any of the ufo abduction stories it's been mostly poor people that they've oh they abduct us yeah yeah put stuff in our ass but they don't we don't get to no there's no wow you think they're elitist huh yeah because people are yeah yeah So why would aliens be good? It's the same shit. That's a very good point.

Anyways, well, we'll talk about some of, there's some new details on some of the sightings, at least details that were new to me. Also, this guy seems to like think the aliens want to attack us, but like they've been here for forever and haven't attacked us even though they could at any moment. So we'll talk about that. I mean their technology is so much better.

They're not scared of us. But it's weird. It could be the Elon of aliens where you're like they're smart in one way but no other ways. In one very specific way yeah maybe yeah all of that plenty more but first caleb we do like to ask our guests why uh what why is something from your search history but also what is something from your search history

that's revealing about who you are oh man it's so embarrassing the things i asked but uh at the the questions like i i i just typed in who what where i'd like to see what like and the last few of the how i asked was how many thoughts does a human have a day oh and oh that's a good question isn't that a good what i was thinking like three or four hundred in my head and And it's seventy thousand. Isn't that crazy? Seventy thousand. Thirty five thousand of them are about the left breast and twenty five thousand are about the right. That's a lot. I remember when I was young and I think I heard this actually on a radio show where someone was like the average man thinks about sex every like 40 seconds and I was like oh no I'm not thinking about sex ever

like enough but you are you are you don't even realize it because you're 35 thoughts down the line I feel like I'm not even aware of all these thoughts that are happening. If that many thoughts are we don't even remember all the thoughts we're having like you'll forget the thoughts you had a minute later probably and well if you think about the thought you just had that's another one you know what i mean yeah yeah so you don't have time to register every thought as a thought and clock it so like but like i was thinking about it like every day i wake up and i'm like i have to to pee a little bit. Can I go back to sleep? I have to pee. Maybe the way.

So like every sensation counts as a thought. That's it. That's interesting. Yeah, I think it must. Because that's I mean, and then you like like when you're talking to people, you'll be like, boy, he's talking for a little while. And then you're like, man, he missed that. There's one big long hair over there next to his ear. you can't get it there's too many there's a lot that seems like too many thoughts yeah it does seem like according to discover magazine which is just a

web page and who knows if it's any more trustworthy than the source you were using i have to assume caleb was yahoo answers right oh quora i only trust the real shit yes no it's jeeves jeeves did dude jeeves knows all but that like the this discover article is like this is actually disputed and some people call it a myth but the other example the other number they give are also crazy high like i'm my brain doesn't work in a way where i can just like they're like actually some people think it's only 15 000 and like my that doesn't 15 000 70 000 are the same number of my brain like that yeah my brain doesn't know that I was literally thinking hundreds in the hundreds. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

I mean, I would, yeah, I would probably think like, and I would think in the thousands just because hundreds is, but the funny thing is I Googled it and told my girlfriend, she was like, yeah,

like she'd never heard that, but she goes, that sounds right. And then she was like, I don't think you have seven. I think you have like 1000. And I was like, Oh, thanks,

babe. Thanks. Yeah. Thank you, baby. Well, you have seven i think you have like one thousand and i was like oh thanks babe thanks well i like thanks for insulting me sweetheart somebody actually once said that to me about because i like i was a philosophy major and they were a philosophy major and their theory was that people who study philosophy are like who are interested in philosophy, like their brains actually are just slower than other people's brains. So like our we like stop and ruminate on like dumb bullshit for longer than other people, which kind of made sense to me. I do think my brain is slower than most brains. Yeah, that was the only class i didn't fail in college was philosophy because i was just like oh i just make shit up

we can just get that slow brain you got that good slow brain like let's brag about it like it's a good thing yeah i'm like an old train yeah i'm not fast but i i'll get there take our sweet ass time getting where we're going just re-watched a movie uh lucy i think was the name of it was scarlet yeah yeah where like she drugs herself up or some shit or something happens and yeah um she has the ability to unlock more than 10 of her brain and i was just thinking of that like and like that whole 10 of your brain thing has been proven by scientific uh methods to be somewhat of a myth but we don't use like it's not our brains don't work like you only use 10 of that like you use 10 at a time is it i think what it is so like you yeah you like what one time

when you're like typing you're using that part of your brain but if you if you tried to use all of your brain all at the same time you would just like have a seizure and soil yourself you know yeah like that's just well according to lucy you would be able to bend spoons and uh right you know i'll just bend the spoon like if i if my mind could do shit i'm not wasting it bending a spoon well it's like being like you only use 10 of your computer keyboard at all and it's like yeah at a time i'm using one letter at a time and like if i tried to use them all at the same time it wouldn't work be gibberish so well yeah it would be gibberish but yeah lucy and limitless there's a handful of movies that seem like they're all in the genre of metaphor for a writer who just

tried cocaine or amphetamines for the first time like they're just like whoa what if this just keeps getting better and better what if i just yeah it's like that you know rob hayes has that bit where he's like if you used all your brain all your thoughts would be like breathe in breathe out breathe in breathe out yeah pump your heart pump your heart we have a new show from this guy david eagleman who's like the foremost neuroscientist in america he's like a stanford scientist he wrote this book the reason i reached out to him in the first place is he wrote this book, Incognito. And the book is all about like how we like most of what like our conscious mind is like just this little like pinhole view on what's happening in our brain. And like our brain is doing, you know, at any moment, it's doing 900 things that we're like not aware of like you

know like pumping our heart causing us to breathe and we just have this like tiny little pinhole view and and then there's all these mental processes that are happening in the background and then like rise to the surface once they're i'd like I'd like to get down to 5% now that I know that. Yeah, exactly. I want to be mostly unconscious. They're going to offer that soon. Yeah. They'll give some. Use less of your brain.

Yes. I'd like to get down to one. Let's let somebody else live this life. I mean, I think that's what our phones do for us, right? It is. They make us use a lot less of our brain. I've guest hosted a lot on the show and also I've guested on the show. That was probably the best Google search one that I've heard.

Yeah, that was pretty good. Man, I'm Googling my ass off over here trying to work in. All right. On that, let's take a quick break.

I'm Keri Champion, and this is season four of Naked Sports, where we live at the intersection of sports and culture. Up first, I explore the making of a rivalry, Kaitlyn Clark versus Angel Reese. I know I'll go down in history. People are talking about women's basketball just because of one single game. Every great player needs a foil. I ain't really near them boys. I just come

here to play basketball every single day, and that's what I focus on. From college to the pros, Clark and Reese have changed the way we consume women's sports. Angel Reese is a joy to watch. She is unapologetically Black. I love her. What exactly ignited this fire? Why has it been so good for the game? And can the fanfare surrounding these two supernovas be sustained? This game is only going to get better

because the talent is getting better. This new season will cover all things sports and culture. Listen to Naked Sports on the Black Effect Podcast Network, iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. The Black Effect Podcast Network is sponsored by Diet Coke.

And we're back. And Caleb, we do like to ask our guests what is something you think is overrated? All right, this is going to be controversial. I was like, I don't even know if I want to bring this up. This will be the whole episode. I think coffee is overrated. Oh, bro.

Bro. Yes. Oh, shit. Okay. I think it's the most consumed. I think it's consumed more than water on Earth. As Jack drinks his big mug of coffee right in our faces. I'm not writing your faces so I can't go and not offend you with my coffee breath.

I'm not offended. I drank it every day starting in sixth grade, I think, was when I started getting on the coffee train. But not that I think it's bad. I just think it's so, it'd be like if somebody said, you know, the greatest band ever is Van Halen. You'd be like, well,

not that bad. No, it's not correct, but it's just like, people are like, I gotta have it. And it's like, it's crazy how consumed it is.

And it's sort of a never ending hamster wheel. It's like you, you, you drink it, you shit all day. And hamster wheel it's like you you drink it you shit all day and then you're you you have a you you feel like amazing for an hour and then you can't sleep at night it's just like it's this crazy thing it's great i love it's a great drug but uh everybody it's almost like a sacrament for a religion it's crazy to me how how much people drink it i don't think anything even comes

close to coffee but uh i don't know i stopped drinking it and now i'm like my life has improved immediately yeah i don't drink coffee i think i think i think is disgusting i think it tastes like somebody boiled water and then dropped a cigarette in and it was like here drink this but like i i it is wild i i think there are certain remember like and this connects i promise remember like in the 90s when the milk or in the 80s and 90s where big milk got us all to think that milk like yeah we talked about yeah they've got a new got milk campaign coming back they do yeah but like the lie that we like all thought until probably i was in my 30s that like milk helps our bones like it helps your bones grow stronger like coffee is probably the best promoter

and the big coffee is the best promoter because it is 100 a drug it's 100 a drug you get addicted to it the benefits are low once you keep taking it over and over and over which makes you take it over and over and over and shit like that it is pretty wild that we don't it's just you know in in terms of does it do as bad as shit for us it's like heroin i would know i've never done coffee but i've done a lot of heroin but like heroin you can be pretty productive surprisingly productive you know me ray charles we've all done well uh but yeah coffee i i is is wild and nobody And it's a worldwide thing. America is bad for some shit, but coffee is all over the world.

It's crazy. And everybody drinks it. It is. It's pretty wild. It's not as big. America did really... That's where the thing of a cup of joe comes from is because the American soldiers in World War II would drink coffee while everybody else drank tea. And then I think just american influence like moved moved it so that coffee is now more popular than it's ever been but it's yeah just anything with

caffeine is incredibly popular now i'm noticing like celsius people oh i see it everywhere it's everywhere now and i just remember like when it first started i was like oh this is gonna be so popular because it has 200 milligrams of like they're not even average they're like yeah this is just like a refreshing caffeinated like workout thing it has more caffeine than any like more than a mountain dew it's got so much caffeine so incredible yeah it's like the five-hour energy thing we just cycle in between like different coffee alternatives that are more caffeinated than coffee and we're yeah it just seemed like well i don't understand why these people don't just take like no dose or like caffeine pills you know like trucker caffeine pills well then it feels like a drug you don't

want it you want it to not feel like a drug you want it to be like oh it's just my morning ritual yeah i just cupped my uh mug with two hands and give it a nice little celsius is incredible i mean that is that's the only one i've been afraid of where i'm like oh i i got it's too much i'm going to the gas station a lot now you know because i couldn't admit i wouldn't go to the grocery store and buy a case of it. I was like, ah, it feels like I should go to the gas station for the eighth time and drink it over Celsius. It's just. Yeah. You want to keep going.

You do drink Celsius. Oh, when I need it. Like, if it's like one of those because sometimes shows stand up shows still start at like 1030 in some cities. And I'm like, oh, God, I need something. Yeah. And that's the only thing that can do it man if i'm up at 10 30 i'm like i'm fucking up this is that's just because my kids are

gonna be up at six so oh what a nightmare yeah yeah they don't need shit they wake up like ready to go yeah yeah that's annoying they're the worst uh what is uh what's something you think is underrated underrated shit uh well i gotta i gotta redeem myself after okay here's something i think is underrated lukewarm it's the most shit upon temperature in the world for some reason it's not that bad like everybody wants like now everybody's taking like cold plunges and they want to get cold and have a cold shower and And then my girlfriend wants her shower to be as hot as shit. And I'm just like, I like a nice in the middle. I don't need to be going from a hot bath to a cold bath.

And I think lukewarm gets a lot of shit. It's not that bad. You don't get a brain freeze when you drink something lukewarm. But people shit all over it. And lukewarmness never did nothing to nobody you know yeah no one died because they were lukewarm they died because they were lukewarm nobody i i love lukewarm i love room temp like yeah room temp water you know i i love things just right i'm i'm i'm what's the girl who's eating the bears shit goldilocks goldilocks yeah uh dorothy uh like

who was dorothy wizard of oz yeah uh i love just right yeah just right is great you know like lukewarm beautiful too hot man like i'd be hating the hot shower which is why i hate taking showers when it's cold because you don't realize like how hot the water is come out the shower with third degree burns and shit because you know you know everything just needs to be just right lukewarm right in the middle i'm a big fan with this people will say it's such an insult that like like they say it about politicians all the time and i'm like that's not even what i hate like that guy's a fucking nazi and they're like he's lukewarm i'm like that's not what are you talking about yeah we need more people in the middle we need more people i was just about to say we need more people in the middle i don't mean that politically but we do need more people who are just kind of like even tempered yes like we

don't need everybody to be fucking fiery we don't need you know we need just like some even kill people people who just assess people are right in the middle yeah need you know we need just like some even kill people people who just assess people are right in the middle yeah so lukewarm is just like slightly above room temp just wait if you're talking about a bath or a cup of coffee yeah cool cool uh and then you got room temp and then lukewarm they're all right next to each other. I'm going to petition to call room temp luke cool. Yes! It just doesn't deserve all this hate. Lukewarm is

not as warm as warm, right? Lukewarm is not as warm as warm. Yes. Okay. Got it. Lukewarm you can dip a toe in and be like, this feels warm, but it's not hot. You know. I feel like there's not many things to your point that the prescribed temperature is lukewarm other than maybe pool pool pool temp is that's

why i like a shower to be lukewarm yeah because i don't come out sweaty because if i'm sweaty i shouldn't have shouldn't have even took a shower right Right. I don't want to be cold. Yeah. Are you a sweaty person? Oh, man. That's another reason. The coffee. I'm like, coffee just made me sweat like a motherfucker. Right. Just all day.

Yeah. Same. And still, I do it. Our listeners have been with me on this journey where I'm like, I've sworn off coffee. And I'm like, actually, I do a nice green tea in the morning. Now I'm back on it. But I don't do it until we start recording i spend the whole morning not having any caffeine because otherwise

i'm how you feeling right now you ready to go to the moon i'm ready to go to the moon baby ready to sprint there oh yeah dude all right uh hell yeah. Well, speaking of hell yeah, dog, let's talk about our boy, Steve Crowder. I've never really paid much attention to him other than I've seen some of his takes and they're always very bad. I can't really differentiate between him and your Ben Shapiro and other people. There are obviously aesthetic differences.

Crowder tries to be funny more often than anyone. Yeah, right. He really is going for it. Yes. And so he is, as far as I can tell, this right-wing guy who always talks about the importance of having a natural nuclear family and both a mom and dad

at home because it fits in nicely with his like anti-trans anti-lgbtq takes and so he came on his podcast i think the other thing i for some reason he only crosses my my desk when things bad things are happening for him because i think he also was in the hospital, but it was a weird undisclosed reason. So now he came on his podcast and announced that his wife has basically been trying to leave him since 2021. He's like, I'm in a divorce.

That's bad. But the announcement is so strange. i don't want to make people listen to it but you can go listen to it we'll link off to it in the footnotes but like he's mad that she's allowed to leave him he keeps being like and in the state of texas it's perfectly legal that she can just decide she wants to divorce me and uh take the kids and they'll be happy to go with her essentially and legal everywhere is that not legal everywhere not in not not in steven crowder's america it's so funny too because he's like oh texas we're free you know we got guns freedom all the freedom and then it's like well what do you mean though like you don't now it's not cool

like now the freedom to leave is not uh he does the whole thing on like with a handgun paperweight on his desk and is just like simmering rage at his wife for having the nerve to leave him also as cody johnston pointed out on twitter, he also repeatedly emphasizes that it's not his kid's fault that his marriage failed and that his wife left him and took them to an undisclosed location, which nobody thought it was your kid's fault, but until you kept being like, and I repeat, not my kid's fault i know so i know you guys have seen

them and they're pretty fucking annoying right but even if it was their fault he you had the kids that's your fault yeah man it's all your fault that's on you you didn't have to do none of that shit but yeah you you really get the sense that he suspects it's his kid's fault and wishes that there was a law that would prevent his wife from leaving him because he's like, it was my decision. She decided she didn't want to be married anymore. And so here we are. And she can do that because that's the law in Texas. But it's so funny to me that a man like this will say shit like stop trying to force your way of life on me i don't want to say your pronouns stop trying to force your pronouns on me but you know what you can

force my wife to stay with me yes absolutely a woman to have a baby she doesn't want. That's the things that we force. But your pronouns? Stop trying to force them on me. I assume that's how he sounds. Yes. Exactly like that. I'm Steven Crowder and my wife is... My wife wants to leave

me. I think he's railing against his no-fault divorce, which was first enacted in california in 1969 and has always been a feminist issue because it allows domestic abuse victims to leave marriages without the judge being like you have to prove to me that you tried to make it work which used to be the case same thing yeah yeah so it is somebody's fault like no the divorce is it's not the kids fault but no fault is like well what happened then right

nobody's fault but I think just legally it helps enable you to just like kind of get it over with without it being acrimonious but she took the kids and he just also what another thing he keeps talking about how he needed to keep the divorce

secret for the physical safety of his children like what sounds like it's their fault like these kids are sounds like they're talking shit yeah right it's i i just there's no world in which i guess that he lives in a world in which he is like a liam neeson action hero would be my guess based on the like handgun on handgun paperweight and so he's like i couldn't let anybody know that i'm no longer around them protecting them and therefore for the physical safety of my children like couldn't let this be known but obviously it was beneficial for him to keep it a secret for two years because it cuts to the core of his politics and beliefs and image all of which seem to rest on a profound lack of empathy for people going through shit like

this and a claim that like people shouldn't be given the benefit of the doubt so i don't know it kind of reminds me of caleb i don't know if you're an nba fan but jakees like this reminded me of stephen a smith's like new like his politics and just how he talks about divorce and you know anyone who doesn't live it like the perfect life that he prescribes remind me of like how stephen a smith gets mad at people for getting injured in games like he's now claiming why he's mad at kawaii leonard like the guy was the best player in the playoffs through two games and then got injured he's like la should just cut ties with him everybody yeah they're faking the injury no he just like doesn't have any empathy for anybody who has a

bad thing happen to them and it's like yeah and it's wild because like in because in this instance, like Hawaii, for instance, will very likely need a wheelchair in 10 years. Yeah. What we're hearing behind the scenes and it's starting to trickle out is this man literally can't walk. Yeah. And it's only going to get worse. LA is through with him. LA is through with him. Well, it's perfectly legal in California

to fire a player thank you yeah yeah but I don't know it's just like two people in the media whose entire brand seems to be a complete lack of empathy for people

who have bad things happen to them unfortunately Stephen A. Smith is probably not going to have a career-ending knee injury that we can use. I mean, at his age, he could injure his knee hosting a show. That's true. Yeah.

I don't know. We'll have to see. He also had some problems with Candace Owens. I guess they have a feud, but Candace Owens. I guess they have a feud, but Candace Owens on Steven Crowder-based crime is so boring to me, I can't even begin to read into it. All right.

So anyways, shout out to Steven Crowder. Also, he looks like he's wearing a muscle shirt. I'm pretty sure he's wearing- He does. Wearing a superhero halloween costume i remember hearing him a couple years ago said uh he goes so me and my wife we found out this great thing we're having trouble we figured out this great thing we're like what if we just do what we did when we were single but we stay together and as soon as he said that i was

like this shit ain't gonna oh no oh he was. That was a long time ago. That was a clue. Yeah. It's just like, yeah, like when you're single, you're happy. So just do all those things. We stay together, but we just act like we're single. And I was like, that's just not gonna happen. He's saying this with a gun strapped on his fucking body. Great idea, Steven.

Yeah. All right. Let's take a quick break. We'll be right back. All right, let's take a quick break. We'll be right back. Hey, I'm Gianna Pradente. And I'm Jemay Jackson-Gadsden. We're the hosts of Let's Talk Offline, a new podcast from LinkedIn News and iHeart Podcasts.

I'm Keri Champion, and this is Season 4 of Naked Sports, where we live at the intersection of sports and culture. Up first, I explore the making of a rivalry, Kaitlyn Clark versus Angel Reese. I know I'll go down in history.

People are talking about women's basketball just because of one single game. Every great player needs a foil. I ain't really near them. Why is that? I just come here to play basketball every single day and that's what I focus on. From college to the pros, Clark and Reese have changed the way we consume women's sports. Angel Reese is a joy to watch. She is unapologetically black.

I love her. What exactly ignited this fire? Why has it been so good for the game? And can the fanfare surrounding these two supernovas be sustained? This game is only going to get better because the talent is getting better. This new season will cover all things sports and culture.

Diet Coke. And we're back and it's time to talk UFOs. There's a new profile on Popular Mechanics of Lou Elizondo. Basically, I didn't know too much about him other than that he was the government official who retired while really making a public push to declassassify all these ufo uap documents and this paints like a more full picture of like what his motives are and it's a little unnerving but first of all just you know the article runs down the usual mind-blowing piece of evidence and i don't know where are you guys on the whole like uap ufo like do you like all like this site did you guys see the uap uap is just another word is like the pentagon's official word for ufos unidentified aerial phenomenon i think it's yeah yeah i think ufo is fine like we, listen, y'all.

Listen, Walk America. We gotta stop changing them. We gotta stop changing shit, alright? It's UFOs. It's what we used to, alright? Yeah. Alright. I think they were... We don't need new names for everything, y'all.

I think they were trying to, like, get rid of the stigma of, like, flying saucers and shit, but... Stigma? Yeah, that shit is actually? Are the UFOs mad? I think they're the ones who are worried. They're like, we're serious people. We're serious adults sitting at the Pentagon.

We don't believe in UFOs. We believe in UAPs, which are basically UFOs. Unidentified alien planes. Aerial phenomena. Good lord. Jesus Christ. What does that stand for? UFOs. Unidentified alien plants. Aerial phenomena. Good Lord. Jesus Christ.

I don't think UAPs exist, but I do think UFOs exist. Interesting take. Yes. Oh, yeah. I think UFOs are. I mean, I would love to see one. Yeah. You know? Yeah, me too.

There was one time when I was riding my bike in Santa Monica at night and I looked up and there was just this string of lights in the sky and everyone was pointing at them and looking at them and they weren't really moving, but I don't know. That's the closest I've gotten. I Googled and couldn't find an explanation. I don't know. That's the closest I've gotten. I never Googled and couldn't find an explanation. I was also a little bit drunk. Yeah, well, everything's

unidentified to us because we don't know shit. I don't know shit. Every object that's not like a Delta plane, I don't know what the fuck it is up there. But you are pretty up on the TikTok of what Delta planes are flying over your head.

I know. I have the flight schedule. I know all that shit. I feel like I used to notice more planes in the sky when I was a kid, too. And I think, what a wild statement, but I did. And I think it's more now just because we look down. There used to be more planes in the sky, right? What happened to all these planes?

I think it's just because we look down so often now cause you're on your dang phone my dang phone well also there's like roads in the sky so like depending on where you are you might just like be under a fucking highway

for like whatever the nearest airport is and you're just seeing that's true you know planes pass by every minute as opposed to you know they they have like specific paths they're supposed to stick to so but i used to notice more drug planes too flying low and shit yeah yeah those much yeah yeah i don't see that much anymore either hey maybe maybe the ufos got them there's one particular like instance that i keep coming back to because it really is inexplicable.

It's the one where they saw the Tic Tacs, 60 Minutes, interviewed the fighter pilot who made visual contact with them. There's just more detail from that story. It was 2004

and they had somebody on a nearby aircraft carrier who like received a call from an officer and was told like they had to alter their course and he was like really adamant about it and he like made a joke he was like what did you see ufos or something and he was like sean i really need you to take this seriously and so he like went outside and like with his eyes because like a lot of the explanations for this shit that you hear from skeptics is that oh it was like they have these advanced radar technologies that are just like locking onto mylar balloons or you know like just seeing things like mistaking things or there's like a trick of like

the radar tracking technology but like this so he he went outside scanned the horizon with binoculars and then said several thousand feet up were five to seven lights very bright white lights no color no blinking and they were all moving in a circular pattern toward the center of this pattern suddenly one by one when they reached the center of the circle they disappeared so that's really fucking weird he says he like looked at the officer next to him and was like did you fucking see that and the lookout nodded and then the next day is the thing is the day that like a nearby aircraft carrier had that visual contact with the tick tock. So it's like really, I don's like people seeing something with their eyes that is like matched by the radars that is then like seen by the targeting cameras that they then have on camera and like the the other point they make is that like you know a lot of people will say oh you know it's this trait like it was a light beam or like a radar interacting

with another radar or something and he's like that is exactly that was the very first thing we suggested we thought it might be and immediately discounted because it like wasn't that so like just something

for skeptics to think about is that like all these people none of them want to believe in UFOs like yeah just something for skeptics to think about is that like all these people none of them want to believe in ufos like they just don't just keep seeing them yeah they just first of all kudos to you for being able to read this one point font yeah i didn't want to subscribe to popular mechanicsics and there is a good website Pastebin shout out to Pastebin shout out to Pastebin but also like

it's very funny you know you said that I was the first time UFOs were talked about on the show which I actually now remember since you said it we were all different people then you know we were different people pandemic hadn't happened pandemic hadn't happened i hadn't gotten mixed up in january 6th you know yeah you know i hadn't voted for trump yet like it was a bunch of shit that hadn't happened

but like i i always wonder why they don't like just let UFOs and aliens be known. Right. And then the common like response to that is, well, the world would freak the fuck out if that were to be the case. And a part of me has believed that. But another part of me also believe. But man, the shit would probably like unite us and be like, what? There's aliens here, blah, blah, blah. And then the pandemic happened. I was like, oh, ain't shit going ever united like we are like if aliens come down there's going to be half the motherfuckers who are scared half the people who aren't half the people who's like you know kid

rock's gonna shoot one yeah and then there's going to be another half of people's like those are american aliens they are here they are here in the United States. They believe in Jesus Christ. Yeah, do they go to heaven? That's going to be on Fox News. Do they go to heaven? That is going to be the first question that I think

everybody, but like the majority of people have is like, okay, so like all the religion stuff doesn't really make sense anymore right but i guess that was true also of like galileo and like every scientific revolution and they just kind of move on and they're like no it does it does jesus liked aliens too yeah i don't think it would change shit everybody still has to go to work like yeah nothing's gonna unite as long as we all still have to work there's nothing gonna be nice yeah it's like i don't know like motherfuckers gonna be like hey everybody aliens are here stay inside yeah

people will be like hello for two weeks we're not doing that we ain't doing that shit y'all said once in a generation god damn it i'm not fucking wear a mask around aliens i'm gonna fuck one of these aliens can't tell me yeah i would love to see it though what do you think jack do you believe it yeah i so like there's two possibilities in my mind that I think are like, I mean, there's like billions of possibilities, right? But like the ones that are like leading my leading candidates for what's happening is one, it's just real. There's been aliens here for all along and they are just so much more

advanced than we are that like, they just like, don't really give that much of a shit about us. And they also like, don't trust us. And so like a lot of the alien sightings happen around nuclear weapons and stuff. So like,

I feel like they're just like kind of viewing us as like, they're like babysitters who are just like, I hope they don't like fucking kill themselves before they like get to an advanced place but it just feels like they've been here for if if they're here they've been here for a long time they're both more advanced technologically and also like are not interested in killing us because they could have by now like it would have been so easy and i think that is why like partial at least partially why the u.s government and the u.s military is having such a hard time reckoning with this is that like that they're not a threat even though they could be like they're

just like they just seem to be flying around and not doing shit i'm like that's confusing because their frame of mind is like well the second you have the technological capabilities to like go and attack and steal people's shit you do that so there there's another like possibility like i i'm also a big believer in the ability of the human mind to just create and. And, you know, Havana syndrome has been an ongoing story we talked about on this where, like, a bunch of CIA agents together collectively kind of manifested all of these really significant physical experiences where they were like i heard a beam of like sound that knocked me off my feet and like gave me vertigo for the next three months and it's like they they don't think they're lying about that like they're the brain is just and like so much of the brain so much of what's happening in the brain is like behind the scenes like happening in the dark and you can't really do shit about it so like maybe like one part of me is like maybe this is just another example of that

where like it's a mass hysteria like someone sees lights in the sky that have some natural explanation and suddenly a handful of people across these ships have this like ufo bug in their brain and it starts spreading the way havana syndrome did but the the thing i've noticed about the like mass hysteria is it usually cuts in the direction of making you the most important person in the world like like the havana syndrome the truth of that was that they were like bored bureaucrats in this outpost in Havana where they like it didn't matter. It wasn't dangerous. Like Cuba and America were trying to ease relations and they invented a thing where they were actually like the target of like this web of international intrigue and sci-fi weapons and like

ghosts, for instance, like a lot of like mass hysteria happens around ghosts. And like, that's something where it's like, yeah, like we are incredibly important. We're so important.

We transcend death. And you know, it's very human centric. And whereas like aliens cut in the opposite direction, like not, not only are we like not the center of the universe we're not the only intelligent life form we're not particularly intelligent by comparison and they aren't even interested enough to like fight us let alone like talk to us so it's i i

feel like it's actually not the sort of thing people want to believe and so it feels like that there's it's hard to believe because it's got some hard truths in it yeah you know like they look at us like we look at birds they're like look at look at that one go yeah he's eating a lot yeah oh man it's going to work it's like we're like yeah yeah we're like them like a million years ago like the way we look at like a monkey house or something where it's like yeah they're like really cute and look at them just figuring out nuclear technology hopefully they don't blow themselves up but we'll just kind of leave them to it and like we have such a we have such a, you know, high sense of self. Right.

We are so important. Like, you know, I was watching the video of a beaver who was in a rehabilitation like home when they were going to let him back out in the wild soon. But in this rehabilitation home, he recognized the bathroom is where the water is and was drinking shit from all around the house building a dam to the bathroom door so like water wouldn't come out just his innate ability right and i'm thinking like you know we as humans don't have things like that right like we they're in every aspect of our the one thing we do have is we can do a lot of things but like we don't do any of them that well like like we can't fly so we create a plane right uh yeah we may want to build shit but we got to go to school to learn how to do it right whereas yeah it's like innate we come out

the womb and take fucking a year and a half to talk and walk whereas some babies come out of their parents womb and them motherfuckers just walk in there within two three days right like we do a bunch of shit as humans that but we think we're so excellent well that's what I'm going to be most interested in when the aliens like if we ever

like make contact and can communicate is like what are you impressed with and like what looks absolutely hilarious to you that like we keep doing and you're like what the fuck impressed with and what looks absolutely hilarious to you that we keep doing? And you're like, what the fuck is with these giant steeples that they put on buildings? Why are their towns full of these things?

But they think our music is really good? I'm interested in just hearing aliens take on music and what they think that i mean we also have like unidentified objects here on earth like we haven't been able to we can't even like study yeah most of our own ocean like there's probably civilizations that we just don't know we truly do not fucking know because we can't get down there like we're dumb i think i think that's where they spend a lot of their time too because like that's the one most kind of inexplicable to me sighting was this tic-tac that was like over a thing that

was just below the surface of the ocean and it was just like flying over it like back and forth and like this like random pattern and but there were like waves breaking over something in the ocean that it was like communicating with or something and then like that's when these like a whatever super hornets flew up and then like it just bailed on that and like came up and met the super hornets but that's my sense is they spent a lot of their time in the ocean probably because there's a lot of cool shit in there that might be cooler than us you know i always wonder because like what if there's like some elon type billionaire who's not wasting his time running twitter who's just

developing crazy shit like he's just making this shit and testing it and we're like and he's like fuck they found my weird lights you know right yeah yeah i mean who knows that i think that's wishful thinking for billionaires but yeah that's what i do with a billion dollars i get some weird lights yeah yeah get some fucking weird lights that are in the ocean just freak people out the so anyways like the the part of this article that freaks me out a little bit is just like this lou elizondo guy who's been publicizing this stuff which i think is important i'm glad he's doing it the stories that have resulted have been like what kind of made me grapple with this a little bit more and

think be less just like well there's probably some rational explanation for it but his he keeps like saying well we need to like accept these realities because we're we might be like at risk of another pearl harbor or like another 9-11 so it seems like his whole thing and his background is like counterintelligence in afghanistan and it seems like his whole thing is just like we need to like arm ourselves and like get ready to fight these things it's just like there's it's not even it's not even close like it's not like there's nothing you can do to prepare if these things decide to like turn on us yeah that's our that's our high sense of self like yo we can prepare and fight aliens like bro aliens will come and flick us

off like a booger on our nails man like yeah like they would fuck us up they will fuck us up wild we should find like We should find them. That would unite us. We found some aliens on a planet, but they're dumb. Let's go fuck them up. Then it'd be fun. We find the only aliens dumber than us. Let's go get some experience in this.

I do think it makes sense as a strategy because that's the only thing the pentagon is going to pay attention to is like oh we get to spend more money on weapons like sure let's let this information and it's probably why they've been willing to take it seriously to this point it's just like as a species i think we need to hopefully have the ability to look at the fact that they've been here. Like there's been these sightings of things that fit the same description as the Tic Tacs since like the 1600s. So like they've been here. They're not interested in fighting us. And like that should give send us the message that like maybe we're the fucked up ones.

send us the message that like maybe we're the fucked up ones like because we are like whenever we have a technological advantage we decide to kill everything we can with that technological advantage and maybe instead of being like they like when we see these things that have a technological advantage and don't do that maybe we take a step back and be like oh like we're the monsters and or or this is just like a peculiar to our species or peculiar to like the stage of development we're currently in where we're just like more warlike and we just need to like advance and evolve beyond that but the people who get power from the military industrial complex seem like they're pretty set on interpreting everything through a paradigm of let's spend money on

weapons to blow shit up. Unfortunately. You know those fish in the bottom of the ocean that got lights on them? I don't even know if I believe that. If somebody told me that was pretend this whole time, I'd go, I should have known.

But if there's light fish down there, why not like light stuff in the sky? You know, light things. I don't know. There's so many. I read some description of just like what the like when you get down to that level of the ocean it's millions of these like blinking phosphorescent or i don't know if that's the right thing but like it's just a galaxy of like glowing organisms like that's yeah there's so many of those like it's and we just have no no we have no idea we can't even see all colors as human beings. No. Like that's how ill-equipped we are for every aspect of everything.

We can't even see. We see seven colors. Yeah. It's wild, you know. Like it's pretty wild. Yeah. Yeah. Like we don't see.

It's pretty wild. But that is like, Caleb, that's a very good point. Like if there's all this light shit down under the sea like why not in the sky right like if there is something as big as a whale in the ocean why not why not a big ass whale like bird in the sky right and it's just like yeah we have no scope of like what is even on this planet let alone right like what is outside of this planet yeah there's bacteria and viruses like why not some skylight i don't care about skylight it's probably true it might not even be alien it's just you know i don't know yeah all right well we gave you your 420 episode a week late folks hope you was high as hell baby caleb on heroin uh yeah not not on her we can't we do

officially not indoors heroin that conversation has repeatedly come don't know to me till i've had my heroin please uh caleb where can people find you, follow you, all that good stuff?

Nice. It's fun. How's it looking these days? Where are we at? Well, he had it for a long time, and then he said his wife told him to shave it. So he did? Yeah. And I was like, hmm, he said his wife told him to shave it. So he did. Yeah.

Hey, Super Producer Justin Conner, is there a song that you think people might enjoy?

Yeah, it's about to get hot here in LA, and this song sounds like floating down a lazy river on a hot afternoon. This is a little meditative retreat from a band I've recommended before called The Lazy Eyes out of Australia. It's about two minutes long. It just has some funky instrumentalism going on. No lyrics or singing or anything. So put this on and drift away for a little bit with this track called Hippo by the Lazy Eyes. And you can find that song in the

footnotes. Footnotes, the Daily Zeitgeist is a production of iHeartRadio. For more podcasts from iHeartRadio, visit the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to your favorite shows.
