Are you eating tuna again, Jack? Tuna? Tuna. Whenever I eat oatmeal. I eat the same thing every day. It's a big bowl of oatmeal. It's good for my cholesterol, Victor. Okay?

I'm not trying to die out here. I had oatmeal today. And Victor, every time asks me if I'm eating a bowl of tuna, like a fucking animal. Microwaved tuna. Do you have any idea how bad that would smell? Like a porridge bowl? Well, that's that one time at the office, I was trying to, like, listen to what you were saying, but you had this giant bowl of what looked like tuna. I'm like, that's so much tuna that easy.

I like to put some raisins in both my oatmeal and my tuna, a little bit something about me. That's a little bit, that's a little bit something about me, Victor. Damn, Jack. It's not even noon yet. That's fucking crazy for that one, dog. Damn. Is that like a standard white ingredient? Like you just toss some raisins into something and it is?

I don't know. You know what I really? So there's a Whole Foods cranberry or tuna salad that has crasins in it. Really, really good. I don't think I've actually had raisins in tuna. I think I've had them in it in chicken salad. Chicken salad. I've heard of chicken sassau.

People putting it in like mac and cheese and just all types of. Oh. craziness. Yeah, yeah. I don't know who and why. I don't know. I'm just a humble country war. I don't know who would do such a thing.

Hello, the internet, and welcome to season 441, episode two of their daily zeitgeist. This is a production of IHeartRadio. We got a silent ya from our guests.

This is a podcast where we take a deep dive into America's shared consciousness through the day's news. We have a new non-news history version of the daily zeitgeist, drop it each Monday morning where you do a deep dive into the zeitgeist through the lens of a different icon. this past week yesterday we dropped our Bob Dylan Bob Dylan episode man

which was fun I'm a Bob Dylan fan and I learned I learned some things it was a good time we recently did Steve Jobs Anna Wintor all the hits

there are the episodes that drop on Monday morning with Icon on the title it is Tuesday June 2nd 2026 2020 I do that sometimes it is Tuesday

June 2nd 2026 My name is Jack O'Brien, A.K., all these modern teens with their messed up dicks never come, never come, can't outcome the 80s. That one courtesy of Bird Turdler on the Discord. In reference to RFK Jr., believing, he was complaining about kids, children not having enough semen in their cum, I believe, recently. Gorgeous. The fucking guy kills it every time. The counts are low, is what he had to say. Then started to talk about the 80s and how thick. Anyways, I'm thrilled to be joined in our second seat by an old friend,

one of the first producers on this show, who's moved on to shows like, I don't know, Las Culturistas. We were at the Culture Awards this weekend. A mess. She hosts the podcast, Welcome to El Barrio, which looks into Puerto Rican identity and everything. your textbooks left out on that subject.

Please welcome back to the show. It's Becca Ramos. Hello, I don't have an A.K.A. But I'm here to stay. Mua. I'm excited to be here. So wonderful to have you here. Thank you so much.

Becca, in our third seat, we have a stand-up comedian who's got a wonderful new special called Milk Job. You know her from Lady Lady. She's the founder of the comedy record label Burn This Records. She's about to do the dang warped tour.

She's the guest. on next week's icon episode is Brandy Posey! Woo! Oh my God, wait! Brandy, I have a question. What does it mean that you're doing Warp Tour? I'm doing comedy on the acoustic stage at Warp Tour.

They do comedy now at Warp Tour? It's a new thing, and my record label booked the comedy on Warp Tour because I know music people from previous lives. And, yeah, it's fun because you get to do a joke for two minutes, and then Sublime will start, and then 40 people will go, sorry, we have to go see

Subloy here. You're very funny, but I've got to hear whether loving is what he's got or not. Yeah, exactly. That's amazing. So you are bringing your acoustic guitar, I have to assume. Yes, I'll just keep it on stage next to me, just to people

just constantly are like, when does she pick it up? Yeah, yeah, I promise, I promise. This is first, though. So funny how many comedians, yeah, like the acoustic guitar, just being like, I'm a bit of a storyteller. It's like, that's, the vibe of that is a Christian youth minister. But then like, I've seen some very funny comedians who bring the acoustic guitar and bring it. Oh, yeah, absolutely.

Well, it's a good way to be like not good at an instrument and hide it by having jokes around it. Yeah, yeah, that's right. Yeah. Well, we're thrilled to have you both here. Thank you. We're going to get to know you, Brandi, a little bit better in a moment. First, we're going to tell the listeners a couple of the things we're talking about today. We're going to talk about America's 250th B-Day concert.

What's it called? It's like America Fest or some bullshit like that. This is the weekend of Warped Tour in D.C. I'm going to be a mile away from this. Wow. You are so fucked. Nobody's going to be looking at you because I know.

So America's 2508. birthday bash, which we talked about, first of all, there's the octagon that's being built on the White House alone. And then there's going to be a sick concert that will not have Brett Michaels or Martina McBride or Younger's or anybody that said they were going to do it. Yeah, we got a comedy stage. Okay, we've got a couple. Okay. It's a vanilla ice. Yeah, a lot of vanilla related acts. I did not book the comedy stage. God, could you imagine? And then gone.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, Donald Trump did say that he might just replace it with just a set of Trump jazz, like just him going up there and just being like, I don't know. What else? What else? I'll tell you what else. The Trump phone did hit the streets last week and we're starting to get a look at what it actually looks like. So we're just going to check in with the unboxing of the T1, which is the Trump phone.

We're going to talk about a new amazing deal that feels. feels like creepy. So it's very like fetishy. It's a, this company is like, we're going to clean your house for you for free. All you need to do is let us wear cameras on our edge. So we can watch this person cleaning the house.

It's like very. Selling it on only fans? It's no, it's like a whole, it's like an AI company. So, oh, we'll get into it.

Yeah. We'll get into it, but they're trying to train the robots by watching it clean, watching humans clean your house. It's like POV porn, but doing the toilet. We just want to learn how do humans move. So we'll talk about that plenty more. But first, Brandy, we do like to ask our guest.

Yeah. What is something from your search history that's revealing about who you are? Yeah. So I looked up recently, is mango pie a thing? Because, right? Because I went to a... It should be, right? Because me and my boyfriend, we went to an apricot orchard a few weekends ago and picked a bunch.

It was very adorable. And we were like, stone fruit pie. You love a peach pie. You love an apricot peach situation. And we were like, can we do like a triple stone fruit pie? And we were like, well, maybe cherry is the first thing. And then I was like, mango. Why has that?

Why have I never heard that a pie before? The sweetest fruit. The sweetest fruit. Yes. Yeah, yeah. I feel like it would be good in like a key. lime pie-esque, like going that route. Becca, I had the exact same thought.

Oh, my God. Yeah, yeah. I immediately thought of like a key lime pie because a really delicious mango that is like peak sweetness actually is already the, like, it has that custardy feel of a key lime pie already. And I feel like the graham crackers cuss and you could add a little like lemon to get that like. Yeah, give it a little something. Yeah. Yeah.

Yes, get on this. Chefs. Yes, chef. Yes, chef, please. Yes, chef. It does feel like, you know, coming up in the United States of America, often in the Midwest when I was growing up, mango was probably the most underrated fruit. Agreed.

So good, so delicious. And I never had that shit at all. It was like sushi. I found out about mangoes and sushi when I was in like, uh, senior in high school. People were like, you've never had a mango? Yeah. Well, mangoes and avocados feel like they are cousins, too, to me.

They are. They are cousins. As someone from a Caribbean place, they are one, and you have mangoes the same time. You have avocados. You're like, oh, yeah, my breakfast is a mango and then a side of avocado with salt on it. It's delicious. Delicious. Yeah.

But I do, I feel like it's very indicative of American. culture that we don't have a mango pie, but we have like mince meat, like a sweet pie that is meat. It's just like, all right, guys, go back to fucking England, you freaks, you know? Exactly, exactly. So everyone figure that out this summer. That's our goal collectively. Mango pie. Let's do it.

I feel like it's a good name for like a production company or something. That is kind of cute. Yeah, right? And it like doesn't really exist. So you can like, you can own it, Randy. Yeah, absolutely. Start another business. Why not? Why not?

What is something that you think is underrated? So I actually saw two movies this weekend. I saw Alibusers, obviously, fucking great. We love it. But there's also a new movie called Is God Is that came out recently that I feel like is not getting the same level of love. But I just wanted to say that it was incredibly underrated because it was a fucking delight.

I loved it. So good. Yeah. And it's just like a kill bill. style movie with like Sterling K. Brown and Vivica Fox and Kara Young and it was just an absolute blast to see in theaters.

I was with the rest of America going to see the Mandalorian and Grogu for the third time. No. We are having a movie Renaissance. We really are. The way that I pronounce it as a native French speaker.

We had these two movies. We talked about on Trending yesterday that opened this weekend. They're like YouTubers they're like, what if we just like let you kind of do your whole shit? Oh, did you talk about backrooms? Yeah, we talked back rooms. We talked about obsession. I don't think they called it obsesh.

They should have. Yeah, but it's cool indie film is back. Yeah. It's out there and it's great and you've got to go go to the theaters. Yeah. Tell me what the name of your movie is one more time, right? It's called Is God Is. Is God is.

It's great. It's twins going on. It's a kill bill style movie with twins going to avenge their mother, basically. And it's fucking great, honestly. Yeah. It's giving our pronunciation of it is what it is, which is it's what it's. Yeah. The correct way to say that.

If you don't have time to say it is what it is. Yeah. And also the Simpsons joke, do you remember when he, Sideshow Bob has die, Bart, die on his tattooed on his. Oh, yes. Tattoo on his. And they're like, you have that. Die Bart, die tattooed.

He's like, no, this is German. It's the Bart. The! The! Anyways, Simpsons' jokes. Am I right? You guys,

is got his. All right. Check it out. Check it out. Check it out. Check it out. Yeah. What is something you think is overrated?

The New York versus L.A. Disgush. Get over it. It's so overrated. You sound like a hack when you talk about it. Just these are two places. is that people live and they love, and it's okay. And that's fine.

Also, everyone is bicultural now. Yes. Like, for real, everyone is truly bicostal. As a New Yorker in L.A. right now, everyone's bicostal. Exactly. You can zip back and forth. We've done this. Like, we don't need to be, like,

why are we pitting things against each other? This is just more of the class in charge just trying to pit us against each other versus looking at them. So let's combine our strengths, actually. Their alternative, you know it's a problem when their alternative is like, so just move to Wichita. Yeah, yeah, exactly. Those places suck. Come to the middle of the country.

Yeah. We'll change you. Come to God's country. Mm-hmm. I will say, yeah, Becca is agreeing with this. And yet I saw her this weekend. She took a drink of tap water and did a dramatic spit take. I was like, you call this tap water?

I'm from New York City I don't drink New York tap water I will say that if anything I love New York tap water Oh it's so scary in our buildings I mean it depends where you live I guess you know My building don't trust

So when I moved to New York for the first time Like in the early aughts My cool sister was like And by the way the tap water is good to drink here And I have never looked into that at all I have just been fucking drinking it Nonstop ever since I prefer West Coast tap water and specifically

shout out to Portland Oregon. Portland Oregon has the best tap water. That shit is like it is delicious. It is like never think twice. I'm like, hell yeah, I'm going to get some tap water from Portland Oregon. It's just coming from a river directly tier. Yeah, basically.

Yeah, basically. I grew up in suburban Maryland and like we had well water growing up and like so that's my top tier. It doesn't have that lead umami that you're looking for though, Jack. So like, you know. That is my. thing. I like it, I like to swish it around. Yeah. Like LA tap water though, we can all agree.

Not, not great. No, boy. No. No, no, no, no. That shit is coming for, has traveled a long, weary path to get here. No. Mm-mm. Yeah. I go to my little water guy and I get my jugs filled up once a week and we're good to go. And that's it. And that works for me. Too many people You got a guy? Oh, yeah, I got a guy. Village water up the street for me. I'm going to shout him out. Nice.

Mom and pop, they're delightful. I take my big jugs over there. They say, do you need help to your car? I'm like, I can carry five gallons, baby, don't worry. Like, I'm so strong. Yeah, I'm so strong. It's great. Yeah.

Cash only. Oh, don't put them on blast like that. You know they're not paid taxes. Cash only. Just have my eye. Now, I do have a question about well water. Well's got a cover on it. This is a question I've always had.

People are like, well water is the best. Can't a bird fall down there? Well, what? Can a bird take a poop in there, fall down there? What are we talking? Well, I think there's kinds of wells. This is not like, I can't go to a well and drop a bucket. It's not the ring.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no. It's not Timmy fell down a well. where, you know, it's not that type of situation. It's like the aquifer well that they dig into and pull out. And I'm sure everybody knew this, but I've always been picturing the baby Jessica well. I was thinking the same exact thing. When you said well, water, I was just like, wow, there's a well in your backyard. My boyfriend is from suburban Maryland, so I was like, he's never talked about it.

He's holding out on you. He's holding out on the good box. I was like, oh, but that makes more sense. Yeah, yeah. Well, we have like those giant water towers. You guys know, like, whenever they don't have them in California. They don't. They have them in Texas, but I never thought twice about them.

They just say whatever small town high school is dominant in that area. It's a place for high school students to drink. Yeah, it's like Syfair High School. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Those have, in my experience, the worst water that I've tasted is the water at the Jersey Shore, the tap water at the Jersey Shore. That sounds about right. That all comes from those big old water towers. I feel you drink it and then you become like gin tan laundry, you know?

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, you get Tanner. Not all Jersey Shore people, Becca. Enough though. Yeah, but plenty. Yeah, yeah. Not all but plenty.

That's for any, any time someone says, not all anything. It's like, yeah, but there's plenty. Thank you enough. Let's take a quick break. We'll be right back. Pride is like love. You feel it in your heart. IR. Radio.

We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to it. We're the first people to do podcasts. Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts throughout there. But this one's extra special. So how do we actually come up with the name, Hey Jonas, guys? I honestly don't remember.

I think it was on a call about what we should call it. And, well, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band before Jonas Brothers. This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast, where people could call in and say, hey, Jonas. And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast. But thanks for remembering that, guys.

Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Just listen. We don't care where you hear it.

Hi everyone, I'm Cheryl Strait, author of Wild and Tiny Beautiful Things. I'm excited to share that I have a new podcast called Mind Over Mountain. In each episode, I interview athletes, adventurers, and adrenaline seekers to discuss the inner landscapes and life experiences that informed and inspired their extraordinary feats.

I also bring a bit of advice into the mix so we too can better understand how to face our own seemingly insurmountable challenge. Do you know what I'm going to do? I'm going to pull out what you already have inside. We're coming into this world, fighting for our lives. All I'm going to do is pull out what you already got inside. We're there to support and celebrate each other. And that's not like your story versus my story. You're going to walk up and over that dang mountain.

You're not just going to put your mind over it. Yep, yep, exactly. And if I can't walk up and over it, I'm going to go through it. Listen to Mind Over Mountain every Thursday on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And we're back. And so it sounds like, Brandy, you have your plans for America's 250th birthday bash. Yes, I do.

But, Becca, have you locked down your travel yet to get to D.C.? You know, I think I'm a little booked. I'm a little busy that day. Oh, no. So this is, it's giving Kid Rock's halftime show at the Super Bowl. It's the Trump administration. I will, all right. So I will say a lot of people are like,

the best they can do is young MC, which, by the way, young MC bailed. Also did. So did Brett Michaels. They have said that this is supposed to mimic the vibe of a state fair, musical performance. Well, and that's what the guestless is giving. The guestless is they have nailed that.

Like the state fair is the stomping grounds of your CNC music factory. You know, my friend Blake once saw Montel Jordan at the state fair. And he played, this is how we do it. He played something for the honeies. And then he played, this is how we do it again. And I was like, all right, thank you. He knows. And here's what people wanted to hear.

Yeah, he was correct. That is. It's called it, yes. The most efficient musical performance all the time. Yeah. But, yeah, so all of a sudden, people are trying to make it political. And so Brett Michaels and Martina McBride had to back out. Young MC backed out already. The only people who are left, so we've got million vanillion, or as you probably know them, Millie Vanilli. They're still in. But confusingly, the real Millian. Millie Vanilli, which is the group that actually sang that the group that we thought was Millie Vanilli, lip synced too.

The real Millie Vanilli have stressed that they won't be participating. So, has this scandal reached your, Becca, you're very young. Like, do you know the Millie Vanilli scandal? I know of Millie Vanilli. I did not know of the Millie Vanilli scandal that they were on top of a lip sync track. They were 100% lip-sinkers. It's getting J-Lo Ashanti. Yes.

And they didn't sing the original track either, huh? No, no. They didn't sing any thing. Yeah, yeah. There's a band that played music. It was very popular. And then they found two guys who were very interesting looking. They did nail, like, these guys are fascinating looking.

Or backwards clothes, yeah. Yes. Yeah, wrong band. That was Chris Cross. Oh, sorry. Is Chris Cross. Was and is Chris Cross. Hey, I used to watch the VH1, like, I love the 80s, I love the 70s, I love the 60s.

So I am aware of a lot of the pop culture of the day. Yes. But it was, I don't think we've ever had this, where it was just like they, the person who was claiming to be the voice was not the same. Like, it was just two people lip-saking the whole time and had never sung. And anyways, they are... Super producer Justin said they lost their Grammy because of it. And that makes sense because they never sang. I know.

I can't believe they won a Grammy. Their songs include such hits as, Bo, bu, bu, bu, bye, baby. Don't forget my number. That's it. It's like a children's song. It's kind of nice. So then the question is, if they never sang their songs,

what are they going to do? They're going to lip sync. Two millie-vanilly songs. So one of them did not survive the scandal and died. But the one who is still around is just like, I'm music's here to bring people together. Same thing is happening with CNC Music Factory, which I don't know if he has no CNC Music Factory, the sweat. That's a Jock Jam's band, right? Yeah.

They threaten to make you sweat till you bleed, I believe, in the songs. Oh, yes, yes. That seems like too damn much. If you ask me, I don't want to do that at all. I really don't want to do that. It feels like a dangerous level of dehydration. It feels like a threat. That's right.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I think that's a scene that's like from the Bible that happens to Jesus at one point when he's like in so much pain. I'm just always bringing it back to J.C., my man, J.C. But. Hey, the Pope's really hot these days. The Pope is flying. Like, honestly, multiple times. I've seen.

quotes from his encyclical and been like, bars. I'm sorry, those are bars. Those are bars. He's saying a thing pretty eloquently that everybody's thinking. Chicago Pope knows what's up. That's right. He's out of the culture. Yeah. But anyway, so the only two bands other than vanilla ice that are sticking it out, both have weird. So C&C Music Factory is that basically they kicked this guy named Freedom Williams out of the band and then he legally maneuvered so he is now CNC Music Factory even though he hasn't been a member of the band for a long time and was not like a major contributor. He just owns the Geo Cities page. Got it. Yeah. It's like the Beach Boys, you know, when like Mike Love came through

and took it away from Brian Wilson. I don't think I can compare CNC Music Factory's album to The pet sounds quite. But anyways, they're still in. Phinella Ice says, I don't even vote, so I don't even care. Just fucking sick. He's just, he's just, he's just happy to be there. He's just, okay, so then my question is if everyone's bailed and they're building this giant stage, what are they going to do with it? Well, so the big thing they're building is an octagon for people to fight each other.

It's a UFC. Yeah, it's a UFC thing. Oh, okay. And then they're also doing this, which is a musical concert. And you know what? Donald Trump says, if they don't want to do my concert, we'll cancel it. I'll just get up there and riff, baby. Which is honestly what people want to sit.

The people who are buying those tickets want that. Yeah, and he loves to DJ also. Like, he's, famously, his Marlago playlist is a point of pride for him. So he can just play the Phantom of the Opera just like as loud as possible over the mall in D.C. God, it's so stupid. Everything's so dumb. Everything's so crazy. Oh, man.

I think it's good. It will be funny. What if this radicalizes Vanilla Ice because this is his only gig this year and it gets canceled? Right. And he's like, fuck, I needed that check, though. He gets up on stage with Trump. Yeah. Yeah.

I get to see, maybe they put some of the UFC guys in, like, Ninja Turtle costumes, and they can do the Ninja Turtle song. That would be super fun. Donald Trump said he is aware of artists getting the yips about their performances. Do you guys know what the yips are? Yeah. It's like when you're nervous, right? It's like what happens with the gymnastics folks, right?

Yeah. Yeah, gymnastics. There's been, like, baseball players who are, like, second baseman. Their whole job is just, like, get grounders and throw it to first base. And then they stop being able to, like, throw it to first base, like, at all. They, like, throw it, like, 30 feet wide. But for him to, for him to just call it the yips is such a funny way to describe people being, like, attacked by their conscience. Yeah. This is also very, like, sports ball of him. Just, like, I don't know. They also get the yips. I know this. Yeah. I hear they're choking when it comes to the decision of whether they're going to come and be part of the long-term fascist wreckage caused by my administration. I don't think that's why people get the, I don't think usually they're, like, concerned.

It's not usually their political beliefs being questioned. Oh, am I going to be in documentaries 50 years from now, like, looking like I'm at a Nazi parade? And the answer is your... I think it's more that they're worried about dying out there from the excessive sport they're about to do. That's right. Yeah, people don't talk about the talent in the Lenny Refinstall documentaries. Oh, my God. Some of the greats.

All right. Have you guys, do you have your T1 yet, your Trump phone? What is it, Jack? What could it be? What is a Trump phone? Oh, you don't know? And you don't know? I have vaguely heard about it.

Oh, my God, Becca. Is this like an old person? person phone where it's like, yeah, like a jitterbug? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Is it the same kind of, but it's just like racist. Which is what he means. Yeah, it's like that for racism, for racists. Yeah.

Okay, great. Basically, the Trump phone was the thing that came out where he was like, we're going to make a phone that's gold and that people fuck with heavy. And people pointed out fairly recently that they hadn't shipped and had recently pointed out that like they changed the terms of service so that they didn't even have to ever ship the ship the phone they're like it's an idea more than anything so it's an indigo go go of sorts you know yeah so there's backlash to that and they started shipping the phone and we're just going to look at a quick unboxing video from c net and then we can you know share our thoughts

it's obviously a fucking sick phone this is the t1 phone Okay. It's made for Americans. So they kind of got the American flag wrong. So yeah, they only put 11 stripes on the American flag. Well, two of those states, you know, the original colonies did not vote for him. Actually, most of them probably didn't. Actually get a wall charger.

They give you a wall charger that looks like one that you would get at a gas station. They got the stars right. So the stripes, however, that represent the 13 colonies, well, kind of missing. a couple. Maybe they were like, it's a suggestion. It's on Android. It's just an Android phone with a gold backing. Back is plastic. It's got a camera oval with three cameras in it. This is called a waterfall screen where it curves around the side. We saw a lot of these in like Samsung phones like five or six years ago. Five or six years ago. You kind of have the the joint where the screen meets the body. pull that apart.

This has almost like an apex to it. See, like our volume rocker here. Very, of course, the power button there. Design Forward. If you are in the year. So far it looks like our standard Android apps. A lot of Google stuff. Doc Tegrity, that's not a usual app.

This app is called Truth Social. I've not used it before, but I believe it's a preloaded with Truth Social. Okay. That's his U2 album. Got it. Great. It has the date and time.

And on the left side, it has the T1 phone logo. which I'm pretty sure they're using the T-Mobile logo. It's real. We have it. Yeah. We did place a pre-order. And Tromobile did expedite our order because we are C-net. So that's essentially what it is.

They claimed it was going to be a golden phone. It is, people have compared it to looking like a urine sample in terms of its yellowness. How much? It's a $500 phone. It's plastic. It's $500. Yeah. $4.99.

Yeah. The price point would suggest it's the greatest phone of all time. Yeah, yeah. Other detail is that its coverage is courtesy of Trump Mobile. So you have to get a Trump mobile plan and get a new phone that is an old, like, 2017 model Samsung phone. But it's kind of goldish. And it's yellow. It's got the idea, they had the idea of gold in their head when they were putting the design together.

What's bollier, though, is. people wanting this phone knowing that they can track them. Like that, like, having a Trump phone. I actually want to be Trump. I want Mr. Trump to know where I am at all times. Yeah, it's like, it's like this is the one phone that actually, quite literally, the government can know everything about you because it's being sent by the government. Yeah. Exactly. Their time stamped and water marked.

Right. All your photos. I can't imagine the coverage is great because where are Trump, where are the Trump towers? Towers. Towers. I'm sure it's just like him doing some licensing deal. Yeah, mapping it on to like AT&T or like

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Definitely isn't Team Mobile because you know what? Team Mobile's very me and de Latino. There it is. So. Yeah. And he did steal their fucking logo because it's just it is the T-Mobile T.

It is. But it all, it makes sense that they got the American flag wrong because the big pitch on this is that it's made made in the USA 100% gold. And our literacy rates are down. No way. They don't know how many.

It is now, the box now says it is proudly assembled in the USA. Yeah, because it's a Samsung phone. Right. Yeah. It's crazy. Also, like, we don't have the infrastructure

to make this here. No. What are we talking about? That's crazy. Oh, man. These are so stupid. Every picture of the phone is different, too, by the way. That's true.

It changes. They're getting all of the refurbished phones. Basically, Samsung's like, look, we got all these phones, no one will touch. Do you want them? Can I smack a yellow thing on the back of that? Yeah. Yeah, I want it. We're getting rid of our backfill inventory.

So they're going to be different models. You know, from 2016 to 2019, you can have. Oh, my gosh. Will any of us ever see one of these in the wild? I want to know how many people actually got these. Like, have you ever seen the shoes? Live, no. Have you ever seen the shoes?

I've seen the shoes in the wild. The golden sneakers? The gold, yeah. Oh, yes. Those became popular with like, I think, like right wing sneaker heads for a moment. Yeah, yeah, they were. I don't know. Oh, my God, they're so ugly.

They, yeah, the shoes are really bad. I just, I can't imagine that they're going to get. They also like sent it to CNET, but nobody else has received theirs. Yeah. And again, they don't legally have to send it because they have... They fix their... What? Paul'sy loophole to throw in there.

To add after the fact. It's kind of amazing. By the way, we're able to change the time space continue because we control. I love how to them the flag is like very much just like an artistic symbol and it doesn't like actually mean anything to keep it intact because I'm looking at these. shoes and they got five stars and three stripes. Five stars, three stripes. Yeah, three red stripes to gold stripes based on the shoe.

Actually, the original American flag. When they're still figuring it out, we got the rough draft in the White House. Yeah. It's actually the rating system, five stars and three stripes. Out of 50 and 13, that is about accurate. That's where this administration is coming in. with their shoe wear and everything else. Let's take a quick break,

As an executive producer in reality television, I'm not just watching it. I understand the game.

As somebody who creates shows, I'll even say this. At the end of the day, when people are at home, they want entertainment. To hear this and more, listen to it. Reality with the King on the IHard Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Hi, everyone. I'm Cheryl Stray, author of Wild and Tiny Beautiful Things. I'm excited to share that I have a new podcast called Mind Over Mountain. In each episode, I interview athletes, adventures, and adrenaline seekers to discuss the inner landscapes and life experiences that informed and inspired their extraordinary feats. I also bring a bit of advice into the mix,

So we too can better understand how to face our own seemingly insurmountable challenges. Do you know what I'm going to do? I'm going to pull out what you already have inside. We're coming into this world fighting for our lives. All I'm going to do is pull out what you already got inside. We're there to support and celebrate each other. And that's not like your story versus my story. You're going to walk up and over that dang mountain.

You're not just going to put your mind over it. Yep, yep, exactly. And if I can't walk up and over it, I'm going to go through it. Listen to mind over mountain. every Thursday on the IHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And we're back. And so I got another product to tell you guys about. You're welcome.

This one, so this is called Shift. I think I don't see the possible downsides, to be honest with you. It seems like they've kind of nailed it with this one. We're going to watch this video. Very straightforward pitch. Dope beat. Today, Shift is launching free. Yes, they are using New York State of Mine.

For a hungry jungle where creams are made. They're using that beat. As a dip shit in a white hat with a camera attached to the bill of his hat walks out of the Elevator to your walk-in apartment with a camera on his forehead.

Big, big, double-schooling services in New York City. You might be asking, how is this possible? This guy is so Zuckerberg-coded. It's crazy. He is giving, like, the heaviest Zuckerberg energy. He's, he has worked on these hand gestures until he doesn't even, like, know what hands are anymore. So, this moment has been a lot of. long time coming, and it's something we're really proud of. The future has always started in New York.

This time, it will start in your apartment. Across 15 countries, Shift already pays tens of thousands of people through one app to record their everyday work and chores. What? Are you... So that would be like a fetish, right? Like, that's like a thing that a fetishist would say. Yeah. Yeah. I pay people to record themselves doing arbitrary stuff. And I like to watch. I try not to bust. But it's hard for me. Yeah.

File my papers. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Sure is where a small camera wall, they were. A small camera. Yeah, you hardly notice it. Oh, my God. It looks like fucking cyclops from the X-Men.

It literally would look less conspicuous if it was like a chest camera, like a body cam. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

pulling a steady cam, like a movie set steady cam. This footage teaches the next generation of robots how to help. Every home clean today lays the groundwork for a home that cleans itself tomorrow. And we're not stopping at clean apartments. Free plumbing, cooking, building, fixing. Tomorrow's robots learn from today's work. Shift is the place that pays for that work and the place that hands the benefits back. Today, in New York, tomorrow, anyone can take part.

Welcome to the ship. So he gave up on the hand gestures pretty early on. Yes, he did. His hands immediately went down. But his cadence is from the school of Zuckerberg, evil tech scar to start out. He focused more on eyebrow lifting as he was going through the pitch. But essentially the pitch is you let them watch while they clean your house. Well, someone they pay cleans your house.

And then they're going to. Yeah. So it's like, are they partnering with cleaning agencies to do this? And then like, it just, there's so many logistical things I have questions on. But also, in a general sense, it's like we couldn't be more vocal that we're like, we do not want the robots to take our jobs. Like, what happens when we cannot work? What are we going to be like in Wally?

Like, what is the end-cull? Wally's kind of looking like a best-case scenario. Wally is best-case scenario right in that part, though. You're kind of nice to the people in Wally. To the people who don't get to do anything. Yeah. Yeah. So it's like, why would I want to train a robot to do that?

take my job. Like, no, no one wants this at all. No one wants a I. No one wants robots. I, I've, I've, I've started just like hip-checking the delivery robots every time I see him. And the way, the waymo, actually, this is my one, I will beef with L.A. about this.

Get that waymo out of here. No, yeah. Get that waymo out of here. Believe me, we don't want it either. I know y'all don't. It's forced on us. And I'm panicking, looking at that thing. I'm like, if you make the wrong, turn.

We're going to get in an accident. I'm zipping past that thing. I'm like, I don't want to be three cars within you. I told. It never does make the wrong decision, but like it, that's annoying too. Yeah. It's like, all right, you fucking hall monitor. You think you're better than me?

You narc robot, get out of here. I saw a lady a couple weeks ago say, excuse me to a delivery robot. I said, you don't have to say that. I literally, I couldn't stop myself. I was like, you don't have to say that to them. To them. I was like, I hate, I'm even anthropomorphizing the robots. I hate them, dude.

They're so bad. Also, like, this video is, like, insidious for several, I mean, obviously a lot of reasons, but also you've got this, like, Charlotteville Reject as, like, the cleaner that you're using. You know what I mean? Yeah, not to be, like, as someone who lives in New York and occasionally has a housekeeper, you're not fine in housekeepers that are going to be doing this, okay? Because a lot of housekeepers are not online like that. what I'm saying?

So you're paying cash. You know, you're helping somebody who is probably, you know, undocumented or an immigrant or something like that who is trying to make a life for themselves. They're not going to be contacting shift to be on record. No. You know, like, absolutely not. The ones who are good are definitely not going to be. Can you imagine?

So they got, for people are just listening. White man to be claim my house. For people who are just listening. Like Charlottesville Reject is the perfect way to describe. Like, he, this guy just, like, step, got out of, like, rushing at fucking Ole Miss. Yeah. And then, like, stepped into this commercial. Do you have any idea how bad that guy would be at cleaning?

Dude, I've seen that man's bathrooms. When I was in my activities, I know what that fucker's bathroom looks like. Yeah. He got an Irish spring three and one, three wet towels. He's got two roommates who are also bad. Yeah. And they all collectively share a towel. Yes, absolutely. It's not, that's not who you want to be in your house. I dated that guy during COVID, okay? Like, no. Like, it's, I brought a towel to his house. Is this like pub art that you put up on the side of your shower? Which is what makes it feel more fetish than ever? Because I'm like, you think the target demographic for somebody who is cleaning houses is this. In reality, this person that you have showing in the video is someone who would sign up for this because they're looking for a quick check.

And isn't actually cleaning houses, they're on only fans. Right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I think like that he is, it's probably a situation where this is the only type of person he knows his other 20-something white guys. Of course. It's just a startup with all purely the most 100% guys named Braden who, yeah, who all like went to the same fraternity. Also, like, fucking fine. Let those, let that be the guy that teaches the robot how to clean.

You know what I mean? Because it's not going to do it. And the robots will fail. You're so right. You know what? Actually, let him. Yeah. The robot's just going to come in and just be like, oh, there's dirty dishes in the sink.

I didn't see them. I will not be referring my cleaning woman to this app. Let me tell you. Absolutely not. The idea that it's going to, that you're going to train these AIs so that you trust them to come in, cook your food and do your plumbing is so crazy. Like, that's going to go so badly. If you ever like that, like plumbing.

customers always have, like, they're using every part of their experience. If you go, like, too far down one direction, your house is just, like, fucked forever. Like, if they're like... Seriously. And, like, is this there solved that, like, we're getting, like, rid of trade jobs? Like, I... Which, like, trade jobs are so important. Like, we're losing skills.

Is this their way to, I don't know, solve the skill gap? But I don't want it to be like this. this is a good pitch to 20 something. Like 20 something people are going to be like, so you're going to like clean my shit for free? Okay. But it's so bad. Like it's not.

No. It's, yeah. Well, it's all crazy too, because a lot of these robots are also like being driven by people. Like, you know,

like the Waymo's are being driven. I think it's people in the Philippines are like just checking in just to make sure. So it's also like, now we're just offboarding all of these tasks in, to, you know, other countries where we're paying them a fraction of a penny. And that's so it's not none of, it's all a fucking lie.

Yeah. It's all a lie. People. Are the 30 Waymoes that I'm in charge of overseeing actively killing anyone right now. That's somebody's job. Yeah.

That's what's going out. It's like so crazy. And it's also like, if I saw somebody wearing this hat, I would slap them in the face. I like, don't think I could help it. Hey, do you mind. You go back to your point.

This is robbery house 101. I think if I were, let's say, I hire a cleaning person to come to my house and they're wearing the thing. I'm like, no, get out. Like, immediately turn back around, babe, because you're not going to be filming my house and all my intricate things exactly where my hidden gems are. Like, no. Exactly.

You guys have it all wrong. We're just training our robot helpers, our robot helpers to help better. Guys, that's all. Well, and you're going to tell me they're not like also being like, oh, you buy this stuff. guess what? That's going to show up in an ad for you later, too. It's like they're selling even more data for the things I haven't been able to monetize about you yet. Like, uh-uh. And you're going to get some great products recommended to you, okay?

So I don't know what everybody's so worked up about. The day it all comes back to ads, baby. That got really, like, that is the first person who I've watched, who I'm absolutely 100% certain. has studied Mark Wahlberg, not Mark Zuckerberg, Mark Zuckerberg as like, to be like, how do I do charisma like that? Yeah. Jesus funny. Let me get my Zuckerberg Riz on.

That's the goal. Could you imagine? Ugh. Anyways. All right. I got to go watch my son do a Houdini presentation in class. So we're cutting it a little short. There's an escape at the end.

You'll never believe what happens. Jack's the assistant. Yeah, he's going to cut me in half. Randy, such a pleasure having you, as always, on the podcast. Where can people find you, follow you, all that good stuff? Yeah, I just want to say also, the last time I was on, I plugged my special Milk Job. Y'all came through and, like, a ton of you subscribed to the YouTube channel, Burn This Records, and that meant a lot to me, and thank you.

Oh, yeah. If you haven't had a chance to watch it yet, I know a lot of you subscribed, please go watch it. It's up now. I'm really proud of it. Milk Job on Burn This Records YouTube page. It's very fun. Yeah, thank you. You can find me on Instagram at Brandozzle.

I will be in DC Warp Tour. I'm also going to be in Long Beach in Orlando later this year. My podcast is called Lady to Lady. We've been around for 14 years. We're one of the OGs with you guys. It's great. Yeah. Oh, yeah.

You put us, you're way before us. I think. Amazing. Also a great podcast. Where can people, or is there a work of media that you've been enjoying? Yeah. I just watched all of. Widows Bay. If you guys haven't seen it, it's a new show on Apple TV. It's from Katie

Dipold. It's super funny, but also like a little bit scary, spooky. Each episode feels like a Stephen King novel, but kind of, but like funny in a very dry way. It's all about a tiny like town like a like an old like Maine island town that has curses and it's very fun, extremely well done. Big recommend. Apple TV remains undefeated, but nobody's watching. So go watch. It is wild. Yeah. They're like, we don't, we don't need to tell people about the shows that we made. And yet, they're making some of the best television right now.

Yeah, they really are. Yeah, great, great, great show. Really love it. That sounds like too much work to tell people about it. Becca, where can people find you? And is there a work of media you've been enjoying? A work of media that I have been enjoying. Ooh, I feel like, oh my God.

Well, you know, I just interviewed Chewy on our podcast, the band. They're a Puerto Rican, like, indie alt rock band. They were featured on Bab Bunny's Tabriti, Ramos, photos. But they have a new album coming out soon, and they are on tour with Bab Bunny, which is amazing.

They're opening for Bad Bunny on the European leg of their tour. So check them out. I really love their stuff, but also check out our episode about them because it was one of my favorites I've done. And you can find and follow me at Beck's PECC S. Ramos on all platforms.

You can find Welcome to El Barrio at Welcome to El Barrio. at Welcome to El Barrio, wherever you subscribe. And also, if you were L.A. Ziking that came to our event on Sunday, May 31st, thank you. That was amazing. We just did an event here in L.A. It was so much fun. We interviewed the artist Kovil.

That will be out on the feed soon. And hopefully we're doing more events. So, like, show up and show out. Thank you guys so much. Let's go. Hell yeah. Let's see. Works of media.

I've been enjoying. I like this tweet from Kuzzi, Kuzhi, who tweeted, someone once told me that Mexico is more free than the U.S. because the average citizen can bribe the government and not just special interest corporations. That kind of makes sense. And then I like to tweet from Django Gold, former guest, watching Indiana Jones for the first time, do archaeologists typically kill this many people?

It's a more action forward profession than we all Yeah, who knew. You can find me on Twitter at Jack underscore O'Brien, Blue Sky, Jack O, be the number one. Instagram, Jack underscore O underscore Brian. You can find us on Twitter and Blue Sky at Daily Zykeist. We're at The Daily Zykeist on Instagram. You can go to the description of this episode

wherever you're listening to it. And there at the bottom, you will find the footnotes, which is where we link off to the information that we talked about in today's episode. We also link off to a song that we think you might enjoy. And when Miles is out of town as he is today, we do like to ask super producer Justin. Justin, is there a song that you think that people might enjoy? Yeah.

So this song is by a Japanese band that stumbled upon randomly called Toe. And this song has so much movement. It's so intricately layered that almost none of the musicians is playing the same note at the same time. Yeah, in spite of that organized tapestry. of sound, it somehow has like a mellowed out atmosphere. It has like a fun, off-kilter, wonky timing. There's like flourishes that are added to it. It's like a early a odds R&B instrumental vibe, but like at a top tier level. So this song title uses all Japanese characters. I was told by Miles that it translates to rising moon possibly. I'm not 100% certain on that,

but you can find that song in the footnotes. The band's name is To. as like the anglicized version of just like your toe on your foot. T.O.E. So yeah, you can find that in the footnotes.
