                                         Hey, I'm Gianna Pradenti.
                                         
                                         And I'm Jermaine Jackson-Gadsden.
                                         
                                         We're the hosts of Let's Talk Offline
                                         
                                         from LinkedIn News and iHeart Podcasts.
                                         
                                         There's a lot to figure out
                                         
                                         when you're just starting your career.
                                         
                                         That's where we come in.
                                         
                                         Think of us as your work besties
                                         
    
                                         you can turn to for advice.
                                         
                                         And if we don't know the answer,
                                         
                                         we bring in people who do,
                                         
                                         like negotiation expert Maury Tahiripour.
                                         
                                         If you start thinking about negotiations
                                         
                                         as just a conversation,
                                         
                                         then I think it sort of eases us a little bit.

                                         Kaitlyn Clark versus Angel Reese.
                                         
                                         Every great player needs a foil.
                                         
                                         I know I'll go down in history.
                                         
                                         People are talking about women's basketball just because of one single game.
                                         
    
                                         Clark and Reese have changed the way we consume women's sports.
                                         
                                         Listen to the making of a rivalry.

                                         miles these are some of the things that are trending yes poland um we figured it's not it was a that
                                         
                                         was a big oopsie daisy actually yeah it turns out it was a misfire from uh ukraine the the
                                         
                                         missile that exploded on poland yeah so a lot of people yeah i think that's why yesterday we're
                                         
                                         like uh it doesn't seem like the pent is willing to say it was Russia quite yet,
                                         
                                         which seemed like we were saying like,
                                         
                                         oh, maybe there's more to this.
                                         
                                         And it turns out, yeah, it was an errant.
                                         
                                         Turns out there is.
                                         
    
                                         And then like NATO was like, it's okay.
                                         
                                         Like I know they, like the Ukrainians technically fired it,
                                         
                                         but it's still the Russians fault
                                         
                                         because they're basically,
                                         
                                         there was all this like anti-air defense.
                                         
                                         Because they started a war.
                                         
                                         I mean, sure.
                                         
                                         It was like anti-air defense.
                                         
    
                                         Because they started a war.
                                         
                                         I mean, sure.
                                         
                                         It's very relieved to find out that it wasn't Russia.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         But then also, I forget who one of their representatives from Russia was like,
                                         
                                         hey, shout out to the Pentagon for really taking the time and not jumping to any conclusions on it.
                                         
                                         It's like, okay, y'all just get the fuck out of there there i think they're all ready to just be dumb with

                                         about Christmas trees because that's always
                                         
                                         like a thing that happens
                                         
                                         with the Christmas tree shortage.
                                         
                                         This time the story
                                         
                                         was about
                                         
                                         like how the Christmas
                                         
                                         planter people are like,
                                         
                                         yo, man,

                                         it's going to be,
                                         
                                         this is going to be a tough one.
                                         
                                         But then the counter story
                                         
                                         was like all the consumers
                                         
                                         being like,
                                         
                                         and we are,
                                         
                                         we know the prices
                                         
    
                                         are going to be higher.
                                         
                                         We don't care.
                                         
                                         We're okay with it.
                                         
                                         It was like this very weird
                                         
                                         thing of like,
                                         
                                         prices are going to be high,
                                         
                                         but guess what?
                                         
                                         People know
                                         
    
                                         and they love that
                                         
                                         about the real trees. So I'm like, okay, get like okay get ahead this is the only thing you need to know to
                                         
                                         understand inflation is that all they need to do is have a pr like wing of their company or hire a
                                         
                                         pr firm uh seed the story that there's a shortage or some other justification. Gas prices are high because of Russia and also Joe Biden.

                                         Then you just run with that.
                                         
                                         You can raise prices as much as you want without anybody blaming you.
                                         
                                         They're blaming bird flu for the turkey shortage.

                                         adderall shortage he knows i don't think he believes his own bullshit either anymore like

                                         You keep saying you're going to do this thing.
                                         
                                         You're a terrible leader.
                                         
                                         But like, oh, God, I golf here, so I guess I'll come.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         It also feels like they told him the stop the steal shit wasn't working.
                                         
                                         And so he was having to not run free and say exactly what he wanted to
                                         
                                         say.
                                         
                                         And when he can't do that,
                                         
    
                                         he,
                                         
                                         he had the same energy that he has when he's doing those teleprompter
                                         
                                         speeches during his presidency.
                                         
                                         Like the three times they got him to read off a teleprompter where it was
                                         
                                         just like very low,

                                         Low vibes is what we'd say there.
                                         
                                         Low vibes.

                                         Not high vibes.
                                         
                                         Same sex marriage is trending.

                                         Have you heard about this?
                                         
                                         I've heard about this.
                                         
                                         Also, shout out to Jay Leno.
                                         
                                         Chuck Schumer is saying
                                         
    
                                         that they're going to advance
                                         
                                         the Respect for Marriage Act
                                         
                                         and vote on it.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         I mean, it passed.
                                         
                                         They got 12 Republicans to vote to vote so wow yeah yeah
                                         
                                         yeah they broke the filibuster uh did they do it by naming it something that it sounds like
                                         
                                         a homophobic republican would have advanced because respect for marriage seems like isn't
                                         
    
                                         isn't that what republicans like said when they were objecting to gay marriage?
                                         
                                         Of course, Jack. Of course. That's why you have fucking people like Franklin Graham just blowing a gasket on Twitter saying the deceitfully named Respect for Marriage Act will be voted on by the U.S. Senate this week.
                                         
                                         The bill strikes a blow at religious freedom. It's not freedom, bro. You are free to do whatever the fuck you want.
                                         
                                         So that box has been ticked, motherfucker.
                                         
                                         Your freedom isn't at stake here. You are actively trying to restrict someone else's by saying, well, that's against my religion.
                                         
                                         That's not how it works.
                                         
                                         Frank, Lynn, Graham, please leave.
                                         
                                         So, yeah, we will.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah, it's getting it's making its way through, you know, that these final days of this Congress, as they call it, the lame duck session.
                                         
                                         It's like typically, they said in the last five or six Congresses, 25% of the major legislation has happened in this time period.
                                         
                                         Because they're like, fuck, man, all right, let's get shit done.
                                         
                                         Let's get shit done before the fucking new Congress comes in.
                                         
                                         Oh, really?

                                         And yeah, they're like up against a deadline
                                         
                                         because some of them are getting fired or leaving.
                                         
    
                                         And also there's no consequences.
                                         
                                         Well, in the house too,

                                         while you control both chambers,
                                         
                                         you need to be able to kick that down to the house
                                         
                                         and be like, yep, all right, good.
                                         
                                         We got it.

                                         Bang, bang.
                                         
                                         But yeah, it codifies same-sex
                                         
                                         and interracial marriage.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Yeah. Yeah.
                                         
                                         Supreme Court's a little iffy on human rights.
                                         
                                         That's what it sounds like.
                                         
                                         That's what it sounds like.
                                         
    
                                         So, yeah, look, I think, you know,
                                         
                                         with these politicians, it's a little late.
                                         
                                         You know, you could just codify this shit a little bit sooner.
                                         
                                         But, I mean, what are they going to do in, like, 2024?
                                         
                                         Because, you know, they're going to be like,
                                         
                                         okay, we have to pair some kind of like working class hero with an existential threat to their rights to get them to vote.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         So what will we let who which group will we let slip completely through the cracks this time?
                                         
    
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         But I don't know.
                                         
                                         Remains to be seen.
                                         
                                         I think they're focused grouping.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         You know.
                                         
                                         All right.
                                         
                                         Let's take a quick break and we'll be right back.

                                         an alleged cult that has impacted members for over two decades.
                                         
                                         Jessica and I will delve into the hidden truths between high-control groups and interview dancers,

                                         and careers have been impacted, just like mine. Through powerful, in-depth interviews with former

                                         necessary perspectives. Forgive Me For I Have Followed will be more than an exploration.

                                         When you're just starting out in your career, you have a lot of questions.
                                         
                                         Like, how do I speak up when I'm feeling overwhelmed?
                                         
    
                                         Or, can I negotiate a higher salary if this is my first real job?
                                         
                                         Girl, yes.

                                         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

                                         This summer, the nation watched as the Republican nominee for president was the target of two assassination attempts separated by two months.
                                         
                                         These events were mirrored nearly 50 years ago when President Gerald Ford faced two attempts
                                         
    
                                         on his life in less than three weeks. President Gerald R. Ford came stunningly close to being
                                         
                                         the victim of an assassin today. And these are the only two times we know of that a woman has
                                         
                                         tried to assassinate a U.S. president.
                                         
                                         One was the protege of infamous cult leader Charles Manson. I always felt like Lynette was kind of his right-hand woman.
                                         
                                         The other, a middle-aged housewife working undercover for the FBI in a violent revolutionary underground.
                                         
                                         Identified by police as Sarah Jean Moore.

                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         No, I think you're right.
                                         
                                         Yeah, I saw it trending and I was like, is that how that was always spelled?
                                         
                                         Yeah, I mean, if you remember Max Headroom, maybe from, you know, maybe like if not specifically back to the future he's
                                         
                                         got a couple appearances there he was like what was max headroom saying like the first like digital
                                         
                                         star like what what was his claim to fame in the 80s yeah he was like robot guy artificial
                                         
                                         artificial intelligence character was like his whole thing was like this idea of a computer
                                         
    
                                         generated talent anyway that's for us old folks
                                         
                                         the reason it's trending is because other old folks have noticed that madison cawthorne as he
                                         
                                         was talking about why he's going to talk to donald trump at the rally like the lighting was so weird
                                         
                                         it actually kind of makes him look like max headroom in it yeah it looks quite a bit like
                                         
                                         max headroom actually and this guy couldn't look more desperate like i'm not sure again the lighting is so weird it's like if as if someone is like
                                         
                                         holding a mag light very loosely beneath him like a scary story and it's only lighting like the top
                                         
                                         half of his skull um but yeah this is we'll play a little bit of him being like oh my gosh donald
                                         
                                         trump is so cool so i flew down to mar-a-lago today from washington dc all right that's enough so yeah uh from washington dc you still working
                                         
    
                                         there didn't you get nah come on fam hey what hey why are you making it hot for me he truly looks
                                         
                                         exactly i don't know if it was intentional but he he looks exactly like max hedrum if you're not
                                         
                                         familiar with max hedrum it's worth it's worth going back and checking that out
                                         
                                         if you're much younger than us
                                         
                                         or just even a little bit younger than us.
                                         
                                         Because it was part of...
                                         
                                         I think there was a pirate radio broadcast
                                         
                                         or a pirate TV broadcast,
                                         
    
                                         which was a thing that happened in the 80s a couple of times
                                         
                                         where they would take over TV waves.
                                         
                                         Yeah, signal hijacking.
                                         
                                         Yeah, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                         And they put Max H hedrum out there but then
                                         
                                         also he became like a pepsi spokesperson um like go back and look at max hedrum or you know any
                                         
                                         anything any of the art from the 80s is a very weird time yeah well look times are rolling
                                         
                                         you know good times good times good times were rolling for five percent of the
                                         
    
                                         country and that's what everyone focused on hey but everyone had access to lewds and cocaine so
                                         
                                         right you know larry krasner is trending because uh they're trying to impeach him after i mean they
                                         
                                         have they voted to impeach him they voted to impeach him. Does that mean that he's impeached?
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         I mean, that's what I'm not clear on.
                                         
                                         I know that this has, they voted it through.
                                         
                                         So this is most likely saying that they've successfully impeached him.
                                         
                                         But it's more so to understand like how this will be challenged because he was reelected in just like in a huge margin.
                                         
    
                                         This is the progressive da from
                                         
                                         philadelphia exactly this is another like progressive da that many conservatives go
                                         
                                         after because they're not like yeah man beat them the fuck up and walk them away rather than like
                                         
                                         no no there's a there's actually a better way to do this uh and it's called being humane and people
                                         
                                         fucking agree with this so i have a feeling there this is going to be contested because
                                         
                                         like they're they really don't have like it didn't even rise to what the typical standard
                                         
                                         of impeachment is they're like okay what crime did he commit right crickets so this is yeah this is
                                         
                                         this this just happened so uh i'm sure this is this is obviously about developing story but just
                                         
    
                                         oh you know it shows you despite a lot of the victories that happened at a federal level and just locally too,
                                         
                                         there's still a lot of these wacky fucking places or just the makeup of state houses
                                         
                                         that will, despite these wins that you have in these metropolitan areas,
                                         
                                         their state house is just red and they're like, yeah, you know what?
                                         
                                         I don't like them. Let's impeach them.
                                         
                                         It's going to turn out it was an errant impeachment from ukraine is uh tomorrow we'll issue a we shall see one
                                         
                                         thing that should be stated here is that like the gop is they're still they're on track to lose
                                         
                                         around 10 seats in that state house so they're they're doing this to try and get some shit
                                         
    
                                         through while they still feel that they're the balance of power is like you know with strongly in their favor instead of yeah exactly so it's
                                         
                                         it's a bit of a ticking clock thing um but anyway shows you the cynicism of our leadership yeah and
                                         
                                         you know they're they're not ultimately huge fans of democracy in this country the main thing that
                                         
                                         distinguishes this country
                                         
                                         from other ones is not democracy it's that we let rich people do whatever they want and we don't
                                         
                                         have any like core value that is like actually poor people tend to be like just as smart and
                                         
                                         valuable to their society there's nothing like that it. It's just like, yeah, he must be smart.
                                         
                                         He's rich.
                                         
    
                                         That's the main thing that differentiates us,
                                         
                                         not an adherence to democracy.
                                         
                                         And that is coming back and biting us in the ass.
                                         
                                         All right.
                                         
                                         Weird Thanksgiving favorites.

                                         Is it anything?

                                         watching my Detroit Lions play and cooling off with a nice mug of cold gravy.
                                         
                                         I mean, I don't.
                                         
                                         Oh, cold gravy.
                                         
                                         I don't have anything.

                                         salad okay so what is ambrosia salad you describe it to the yeah it's basically like fruit it's
                                         
                                         just like fruit and cool whip yeah it's like just straight up dessert food uh does it have ambrosia in it no the turn isn't it
                                         
                                         this the ambrosia of like the gods like isn't that more of like a i thought ambrosia was a
                                         
                                         flavor am i i might be confusing it with something else oh it might be i mean i just thought it was
                                         
                                         like a i mean ambrosia salad but i think isn't that a like oh okay isn't that from greek mythology

                                         yeah so i think that's what's hilarious is that our reference to greek mythology is like canned
                                         
                                         pineapples like oranges fucking yeah you know fluff and coconut so i like am like i really do
                                         
                                         because it's like the sweetest shit you could eat i wasn't i didn't eat yams as much as i should have
                                         
                                         uh it wasn't till i got older that i that I was really fully on the yam train.
                                         
                                         That reminds me of, there's this Mark Twain quote where he's like,
                                         
                                         Watermelons, it's chief of the world's luxuries.
                                         
                                         When one has tasted it, he knows what angels eat.
                                         
    
                                         It's just funny to me because that reminds me of the Ambrosia salad thing.
                                         
                                         At that time, you're just finding out about watermelon and you're like, what the fuck?
                                         
                                         You can't get over it for like a year.
                                         
                                         The angels must eat this.
                                         
                                         Cool whip.
                                         
                                         It is truly manna from heaven.
                                         
                                         The greatest food that man has ever put before other man um i mean yeah because you think
                                         
                                         of it just being like man this is what they were eating up in mount olympus ambrosia up there and
                                         
    
                                         i like that like and what do we have it's canned fruit marshmallow stuff yeah here we go but it's
                                         
                                         good it does taste good yeah so they did a rundown of all the weirdest ones by state. And it's ambrosia salad, frog eye salad, and jello salad.
                                         
                                         There's only three fucking things.
                                         
                                         I thought there'd be more variation.
                                         
                                         What's frog eye salad?
                                         
                                         Is that also some kind of...
                                         
                                         Frog eye salad is a dessert pasta salad.
                                         
                                         Small noodles, egg yolk, cool whip,
                                         
    
                                         canned citrus fruit, and marshmallows.
                                         
                                         Yo.
                                         
                                         Right?
                                         
                                         I don't know why the noodles need to be in there.
                                         
                                         I guess to differentiate so that this survey has a third answer.
