Welcome to the Daily Zeitgeist, Alex Fumero! Alex! Thanks, guys. I feel like there should be air horn sounds. Yeah, we'll drop them in. We'll drop them in. Air horns are implied. I'm from Miami, and I'll be shamed if there aren't air horn sounds.

Right, yeah, yeah. Of course. Yeah, when you walk into a room and you just kind of look around confused. You're like, yeah, where's the air horn sound? I don't even go to parties anymore if they don't have it in advance. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. You walk in, you're like, honey, we got to go. You're like, why?

It's like, did you hear that shit? There was an air hornless entrance. We just had to get the fuck out of here. Yeah. This is, it's racist almost. And Justin also, you know,

since our boy's from Miami, why don't we throw in an obligatory Mr. 305? Dale in there. Dale. Dale. You need a Dale. Yeah, exactly.

Like one of those, yeah. There you go. Justin's got you in post. Everybody just heard the Dale. Everybody just heard it. Everyone heard it. They heard it. What's good, man?

Where are you coming to us from? I'm in my kitchen. You might hear it's a Latino house, just heard the dalai everybody just heard everyone heard it they heard it what's good man where where are you uh coming to us from i'm in my kitchen you might hear it's a latino house so there's like a baby and an abuela like in the background that you're definitely gonna hear yeah yeah they're trying to figure out how to how to use a one of those baby nespresso machines because we got all bougie and one of those oh that's like the formula maker thing? Oh, yeah. It's like the greatest invention of all time, I think. Yeah. Oh, I thought it just literally made an espresso for your babies. Yeah, that starts at age two.

I think I had my first, I think, finger of Cuban coffee at two years old. And that is a concentrated espresso with like a diabetes amount of sugar. So much sugar. Yeah. I was in DC at this Cuban coffee shop, right? And they were serving like cafe con leche that had like condensed milk. And the levels were like half sweet, sweet.

And then the last one was Miami. Yeah. And I was like, what the fuck does that even mean? And I was like, I don't even want to know. I just went for half sweet. And what the wild part is, this white dude came in right after me and he goes, hey, can I get a cafe con leche? And he's like, I've said this before, but I want like I want in Miami, but I want it the sweetest you guys have ever made it. Like I want you guys, whatever you think is sweet, go harder than that.

And I was looking at this dude. I'm like, is he okay? Like you're going to die. Half sweet made my teeth like rattle. There's so many things I didn't like. Miami's like a weird place. It's like Montreal or something. Like you don't realize.

Everybody speaks Spanish. Like you just don't know what's going on. I thought like I barely have an accent anymore because it's like whatever. But when I grew up, I was like, uh-huh. Like cool, man. You know, like uh we're just gonna drink some coffee and i had no idea i had i thought i sounded like dan rather and and so when i went to new york like i ended up bringing a bunch of friends from college back to miami and i gave them cuban coffee and the way they serve it is in like a it's like a like a half like a four ounce styrofoam cup and you're supposed to like fold the edge and then they give you these like

thimble sized plastic cups and you pour this like syrup coffee into the plastic and that's all you are supposed to drink is this thimble sized amount and my friend was like this is so good and he ordered an entire one of the of the of the half a cup one wow and just downed it to the face and i was like this is a huge mistake i was like you're like this is gonna be worse than coming off coke and he he like he like 15 minutes later was on the ground, like dry heaving. Holy shit. Jack, we got to add that to the coffee challenge list now. Jack loves a strong coffee.

It should be a schedule two substance. My mom claims that she, in her day, everybody was like taking speed. That was like the thing that would like the study drug was like taking speed that was like the thing that would like the study drug was like just speed i guess and uh as she claims she got like two of her friends to quit speed by just teaching them how to make there you go you don't need cracks when you got cuban coffee exactly exactly yeah that's right on that amazing well alex we're gonna get to know you a little bit better in a moment first we're to tell our listeners a couple of the things we're talking about. Later on in the show, we are going to talk about microplastics.

People seem to be talking a lot about the fact that we are full of just a funfetti of microplastics. It's just that's the image that goes with it every time they do these articles. It's just like all these tiny tiny little multi-colored plastic granules so we'll talk about that no real good news on that one uh but there is good news we've discovered an ancient group of giants who built all the cool buildings we gotta thank them we gotta thank them to a conspiracy that just dropped yeah we could it's actually been out for a while i think we just weren't up on this one like there's whole subreddits devoted to this shit so so shout out to the people that may be heard of it but this is our first time hearing of the tartarian empire yeah so if you ever hear someone like look at a big building

and then be like and we know who built that yeah right kind of wink it might be way stupider than you could even imagine what they're implying yeah uh plenty more but first alex we do like to ask our guest what is something from your search history or something that you've recently screen capped that is revealing about who you are or what you're up to yeah so uh this is from yesterday i googled a random a name a random person's name because i tried to buy some outdoor furniture on facebook and because i'm cheap and this is something you should know about me i love deal. Like I love like a secondhand product. Oh yeah. I tried to buy some furniture.

I'm usually pretty good at the Facebook market placing. But this time I was enamored by the photo of the patio furniture that I was trying to buy. And the person gave me an address in Brentwood and they said, if you send a deposit, I can hold it for you.

Otherwise I can't promise. And usually that's a red flag. But because they said, if you send a deposit, I can hold it for you. Otherwise, I can't promise. And usually that's a red flag. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But because they said, I can hold it for you. I just thought, no, I just said, I'd rather just pay for it in person. And then I drove an hour from Glendale to Brantwood. And I knocked on a random rich lady's door. And the lady was pissed.

Like she was like pointing to her headphones and she's like, I'm going to work something. You know, and I was like, are you selling patio furniture? And she's like, no. I'm like, well, someone scammed. Someone is using your address. And I like showed it to her

and then she kicked me out. And so then I was- She Googled guy coming to your door asking if you're selling patio furniture scam. The crazy thing is that she had like a gate buzzer and I rang the doorbell to like, and she just buzzed me in. So like, also don't do that. She's lonely. She's lonely, but suspicious and busy. She's lonely.

She's lonely, but suspicious and busy. So then in my like irrational anger, I tried to Google the name of the scammer as though the scammer might have used their real name. Right. You know, and I was like, I'm going to find you. Right, right. And then I was like, oh, I'm not going to find them. And then they like clowned me on them. I was like, karma's going to get you. I was thinking like, what can I say that's like,

that wouldn't look like a physical threat that then later I could get arrested for, but would scare them. And I settled on karma's going to get you. And then they were like, you're, they wrote something in like broken English that was like, you're an idiot. You think because deposit no go, you come get furniture, you know? And then I was like, how are you? You were clearly, first of all, copy pasting the English to begin with. And now you're freestyling and it's not working as well.

Trying to flat back. Yeah, man. So that's my latest Google search is I searched Hezbon Tanya. And it turns out Hezbon Tanya, not a real person. Not a real person. Hezbon Tanya sounds like a dope kind of like MC name though. Yeah. It is.

Hezbon Tanya coming to the mic. You're like, oh shit. That's like a lyricist lounge. Yeah. 100%. Yeah. Hezbon Tanya like had that one mainstream album. And then like.

Whatever happened. Farrow Monch, Mos Def, and Hezbon Tanya. Hezbon Tanya. Yeah, exactly. Hezbon Tanya. The third billing on it. He was actually the third signing to Ruckus Records. Yeah, exactly. He's dead now.

Rest in peace. They're clowning on your name now. There's a clear urge here, though. What's this piece of patio furniture that you're so hungry for? Because that's a big move they got it was it was like really nice solid wood oh like one of those you know yeah like sofa sets it looked

like west elm kind of thing but yeah patio furniture is wildly expensive like i don't know i did not expect it but it's like the minimum a g for like yeah yeah like a couch you know exactly like a lot so i was like oh my god i mean i'm an idiot i should have seen us it was like 300 for this like teak furniture you know but but then i was like oh brentwood rich people they don't care see you know that's how they got you and that picture the furniture ai yeah it was it was walking around and digging itself out of some sand i don't know what it had a sixth it had a sixth finger yeah it's really weird yeah then realized it wasn't supposed to have any fingers i feel like yeah the best come-ups i've

had like on facebook marketplace or craigslist is always like somebody who is like the maintenance person at like a luxury apartment building that got foreclosed on. And they're like, yo, they're letting me take all the outside pooled like the deck chairs or whatever. They're like, I got 40 deck chairs, but you got to come to Hawthorne for them. And like you see the images and like you call up and they're like, so how'd you get these? They're like, yo, I worked at the building, but then they lost investors and they started liquidating stuff and like once everything was gone i just asked if i could take the like the chairs come to my house my outside part about this story is that you you use the plural as in the best deals which means you live in la a city where they're constantly foreclosing yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah exactly it's just like

scam fall off like it's like you know a real estate scam fell through and so now there's like you can get the you might get scammed but you might also get like the whale fall of scam fall off where you get to eat off of like a the carcass yeah exactly well the other thing too is like i remember i almost bought like a herman miller aero desk chair because another dude was like, yo, this co-working space. I used to do maintenance acts, shut down. I got 15 of these chairs. I come through.

They're like, I don't know what they're worth, but if you give me $200, I'll give you one. I was like, oh, shit. But I didn't end up going because it was too far. Move to LA where you can't get housing, but you might get a secondhand Xerox copier. Yeah, exactly. Lightly used. Lightly used. Right.

Lightly used. What is, Alex, what's something you think is underrated? I stand by it. Costco. Underrated. Not everyone. I think there should only be one. Like everyone should have a Costco membership.

think there should only be one like everyone should have a costco membership like the way in europe in england i don't know if you know this but like the bbc is like paid for with a fee that's just like built into your taxes and that's what i think we should do with costco products are incredible my friends make fun of me because i i go on these rants like regularly you're not that yeah you're not the only one who extols the virtues of Kirkland. I'm like obsessed. I'll spend like a whole day in there. My, I got my,

my father, my four father-in-law, he lives in Brooklyn. There's like, it's not an accessible place for Costco, but he, I've got him. He watches YouTube videos of Costco reviews.

It's just like a guy walking through Costco going like, Oh, this doesn't pass. He's cause like, this doesn't pass the Bobby test. Like, you know, and he like just named something,

the Bobby test. It's just like whether he likes it or not. And my, Alan is just like firing off these videos like every week to me, you know, and he didn't even shop at Costco. He doesn't have a membership, but that's how good Costco is.

Once you've been there and you know, it'll never be the same again. Yeah. Now that I have a kid, too, where I need to buy, I need high volumes of things. It was only recently I kept drafting off my homeboy who had a card.

I'm like, hey, when are you going to Costco, bro? Let me go with you. And he's like, and then for my kid's birthday, he's like, hey, bro, I didn't get anything for your kid, but I got you this Costco membership so you can stop buying. And you can hook your kid up. That's love.

You can leave me the fuck alone. That means he loves you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They're out of the formula, bro. They're out of the baby formula. I don't know. We're on the milk, baby. We're on the milk, baby. You know what I mean? Why can't America figure out baby formula? Like, how do we keep running out of baby formula?

It's such a basic thing. Yeah. Who is it? What's the one company that was making all the COVID tests that had like Abbott, you know? Yeah. They're all made by Abbott Labs and they're out of business. Like, sorry, man. We don't make formula anymore.

We just make COVID tests. Yeah. We're kind of upside down on that business too. So maybe you can turn these COVID tests into formula. So I've heard people argue that Costco rotisserie chickens are better than the best rotisserie chickens. Is there a Kirkland product that you think is better than any other equivalent? Or is it just the accessibility? No, that's easy.

Cocktail shrimp, bro. Oh, yeah. Cocktail shrimp, bro. Oh, yeah. Cocktail shrimp. It's another low-key loss leader. There's no way they're making money on the cocktail shrimp. Like the rotisserie chicken, it is very good. But what makes it taste so good is that it only costs you $5. That's like what, man, the shrimp is similar.

It's not $5. It's like $12. But you get a massive container of shrimp. They're all fresh, deveined. You know, they have a really nice cocktail sauce that they like neatly placed in the middle. A couple of fresh lemon wedges. You know, I polished off. I'll sit down and just eat one of those.

And I just got news that my cholesterol is a little high, so I should probably stop doing this. Yeah. But to quote Three Six Mafia, I eat eat so many shrimp i got eye dipoid literally i love costco shrimp yeah because also man like yeah my friend when i was there too is like this is why you got to get the membership bro he's like look at this look at this meat he's like he's like how much did you pay for that at ralph He's like, no, I'm getting this. I'm like, you ever cook a London broil before? He's like, nah, but I'll Google it.

I don't care. He's like, this is a deal. And I'm like, okay, no, you're right. The thing I loved the most back in the day, but they discontinued it because I guess nobody was fucking with it, was those 48 packs of light beer. Kirkland Signature light beer. Kirkland Signature light beer, yeah. Dude, they looked like shit the packaging

i remember looked like absolute shit and that's kind of what attracted me to it but i'm like if you're gonna like light beer is already not really beer anyway i was like i might take a punt on it but apparently like it was just universally panned as like a shitty light beer and they i don't know on the costco subreddit which yes okay subscribe to oh yeah uh that's like a heavily that's like a big that's like a big nostalgia vibe like they'll every so often like posts like remember these guys and they like people will say shit like better than natty light you know better than milwaukee's like 20 bucks like It was crazy.

Can kill yourself for 20 bucks. It just has quietly a Disney following. People really are fanboying it out. I have Costco gear. Sometimes I have a puffy

jacket I bought for $10. It's an off-brand Costco thing. People I have like a puffy jacket I bought for like $10. That's like an off-brand Costco thing. Yeah. People are constantly like, yo, where'd you cop that jacket? It's a little place. And I'll be like, oh, yeah, you know, there's a place in Burbank I go to. It's like, you got to be a member though. You got to go shop there.

Members only. For real. It's like a members only. Real members only jacket. What is something you think is overrated? Boeing. I think Boeing is still overrated. I just read yesterday that there's like 30 more planes that might just blow up in the sky.

Yeah. Oh, no. How are you still even in business? Like, at what point does the government just step in and nationalize Boeing? Because it's getting like I have to fly like four times in the next month and guaranteed they're Boeing planes. And I'm absolutely terrified of getting on these fucking planes. Like what happened to the other? Didn't other people make planes? I thought there were other people who made planes.

I can't even find them. Because like didn't McDonnell Douglas end up merging with boeing like the other one yeah yeah yeah i feel like that they ended up merging with boeing and yeah like it's it's like you know it's all consolidation and then on the your fa the question about the faa is like regulatory capture like they just buddied up with the faa and they're like come on man let us let us inspect our own planes man you don't gotta look atAA and they're like, come on, man, let us let us inspect our own planes, man. You don't got to look at our shit. They're like, oh, yeah, we got that. Why would you inspect the planes? We have a federal regulator. Yeah, we got we got inspectors to bro. Just I think just chill. You heard me say I got you. You heard me say this shit, bro. I don't just say that to anybody. Yeah. Yeah. yeah it is it is wild and i mean like yeah every story like there's all like i feel like now there's like a weekly boeing story about something happening a landing gear malfunctioning or some other weird shit at first i thought it was like overblown like i was

like oh i mean it's like i'll be honest i'm like i've the door ripped off and i was like oh it's the max plan it's that plane right yeah that plane sucks the max and sucks but then they're now like as of this week this like new story they're like half their fleet might be fucked up or whatever it is i'm like yeah what are you people doing what is yeah and then is it a problem or is it not a problem the government needs to decide right because, exactly. Because they are like, this is very bad. But then they're like, fly away. You know, like, which one? You should, if the planes will kill us, shouldn't they stop the flights?

Well, right. What's worse? A couple hundred people dying or my revenue going to a fucking absolute halt? Well, right. You know what I mean? That's probably what they're telling them. Like, please don't make us shut down man We're not going to make money Shout out to the aviation maintenance technicians

Yeah yeah it's your day Pay them triple quadruple Whatever a living wage times two Please because we need These planes in the air Not Boeing they're not going to Because they don't have to That boils down to the airline.

Yeah. Yeah. For sure. All right. Nationalize them. Yeah. Nationalize Boeing and Costco for different reasons. Right.

They cut into or, you know, analyzed, I'll say, 23 human testes, 47 dog testes. crystallized i'll say 23 human testes 47 dog testes and this is like it feels like the scientists were like okay it's not going to be inside our body oh it's in it's in the bloodstream well it's not going to be in the lungs oh it's in the lungs well certainly it can't be in the reproductive system in your balls and this is the one where they're like oh no like they really so of the 23 human testes 23 had microplastics in them and same with the dogs the the human concentration was higher okay well what were those 23 dudes doing you know what i mean and am i doing the same that's what was so funny i remember

seeing this like headline and then people were like they're like but it was only the 23 that were sampled not great yeah i went into the article hoping they were going to be like in this sample of like 23 men who consumed five to six kitchen sponges a day during the past third last 30 years of their life that's funny that's what he went with it i was like what do these dudes fuck yeah yeah right right they're like don't put your junk in that you know yeah see fleshlights they have there is a bad side to it just dipping their junk in like ball pits every day but i don't know how that this does reek though of like when there's a real big problem and no one wants to listen and then they pick a thing that's the most scary, you know? Yeah.

Like nothing is scarier to us than stuff that might affect us. To the balls, Haber. Yeah. Like pretty much if they really want to get you, they're like, but your balls, you know? But your balls. Like there's a, like a study now about the effects of gas stoves on like health and it's like pretty bad like gas stoves are pretty bad for you okay it turns out like by a lot but like what's really behind it and the people who are really pushing it are people who

want you to get a pay attention to climate change because it's also a huge emissions i think it's like 42 percent of like emissions contributions come from like household appliances or you know so it's like so but they that no one cares everyone's like yeah yeah yeah climate change but the second they're like yeah yeah what about my boys in you know what about my balls you know all of a sudden you're like well maybe we're using too much plastic. I think like no, no one, my family is in Texas. No one that they like love plastic bags. They're like, man, they banned plastic bags in, in California.

You know, I guarantee you, if you push the plastic in your balls narrative, they're banning plastic in Texas. Yeah. Right. Yeah. Cause I was in, I was in Florida and I just just remember seeing the bag they give you at Publix. I was like, damn, I haven't seen one of these plastic bags in a minute. It starts to come

apart as soon as you get in your car. It's already degrading. I had one sandwich and it was falling out the corner seam. I was like, what the fuck is this? But then they triple bag it. That's how they do it. They just literally don't give a shit. They're like, oh, one sandwich? Would you like six bags, sir? If that's what it takes what it takes yeah you're gonna need that if you're walking more

than 15 feet i'm like okay all right the the images that come with these microplastics articles are always like these like little like plastic nubs that are like 20 it's just like they threw some rubber bands in like a wood chipper or something like right and it's just that so i just have it in my mind that they're like cutting into a body part and then like it's just full of that like it's like a bean bag full of just funfetti plastic which i don't think is the case it could be microscopic funfetti like it just doesn't look and then they get them the microscope and it just looks like no blanking on the name fucking club 54 studio 54 in there yeah it's like a ball the uh i yeah the the main thing that's making me less scared is that like our life expectancy hasn't fallen off a cliff yet so maybe maybe our body

is pretty resilient like these samples were taken i think like five years ago and it had already like crossed the barrier into people's testicles so but yeah i don't know this can't be good like it's sperm count and all sorts of shit it could could make us stronger. You don't know. Yeah, that's true. The only the sperm that can survive the shreds of plastic that are constantly trying to tear apart survive. And that we're just like a super race, you know? Yeah. But the thing that freaks me out, though, too, is like when it says they're like, yeah, that's fine for now.

But younger people are existing in a world where there's more plastic than ever yeah and then i'm like oh what what does that mean like now i'm like now i'm like was gwyneth paltrow right when she like on goop she's like that's why i use glass everything and i'm like man fair point but can you escape it i don't know i mean is she ever wrong that's my question that's bad that's a better question to ask yeah but this is this is always a patriarchy thing though right i mean it's like i'm like like i'm working on a project that's about male birth control right now and it's like it's absurd like if you ask a woman what she goes through when it comes to birth control hormonal birth control it's a nightmare like it's like the pill has like all kinds of side effects and And IUD, I had one woman describe it as the process of getting an inserted medieval,

you know, and like, and then like, if you ask a guy, you're like, we have this like new gel that we can like, like really like orthoscopically just insert into your vas deferens and it'll like, and they're like, oh my God, is that near my balls? Is that near my balls or something?

No, absolutely not. They're like a zero side effects, non--hormonal you won't even know what happened no no no no no you said balls and i'm not you said balls yeah i'm awesome this is science like weaponizing that this is yeah i think so yeah your precious nut sack think about it yeah i mean like what so cap if we only could do the same for capitalism, right? Somehow capitalism is destroying your balls. We need to do something about this. I mean, it is like this is making people less potent. So like it's lowering sperm count.

They seem to be pretty like that. They've been wondering what's lowering sperm count for a while. And now they're like, well, this is probably it, right? Yeah. This can't be good. So on the other hand, maybe this is, you know, the creation of some deadly chemicals. Climate change is balancing itself out and like slowing itself down by create. We're doing that by creating deadly chemicals of another variety that are lowering the rate at which we reproduce.

So it's just everything's balancing itself out with just deadly chemicals. You guys know where doesn't use plastic bags and significantly reduces its plastic output? Where's that? Costco. Is that right? Yeah, you don't have plastic.

You literally use the boxes Where is that? Costco. Is that right? Yeah, you don't have plastic. You have to use their... Oh, yeah. They don't have the recycled boxes. You literally use the boxes that the stuff from the factory was shipped in on to carry the shit to your car. Wow. Costco, bro. I'm telling you. Dude, that's...

I thought you were going to be like, Cuba or something. That's just good. They can't afford plastic bags. Right. Yeah. Those aren't called embargoes. Yeah. Yeah. We just have a ring of naval ships around there.

Alright, let's talk about what's really going on though. Yeah, man. Thanks, Jack. Stu Peters, who spells his name like the food stew. Yep, yep. That's sick. It is sick. Kind of sounds like stupider. Stu Peters.

Stu Peters. Because you're stupider if you listen to what stu peters says he's a man he opened my eyes personally all right all right well look i don't want to editorialize too much as i you know to tell the listeners about this story but uh first off i don't and again this i'm not editorializing but he's a white nationalist okay he's an overall horseshit spewer um he likes to make propaganda movies pretending to be documentaries like the one he did on vaccines that we've talked about called died suddenly which was basically just a mixtape of people fainting in public and it was like you see what the vaccine did you see what the vaccine did that person fainted and like this this this video is from 1998 um and well now he's

back with another magnum as i call it dopest because he's fucking stupid uh called old world got his ass you know what i mean that's what we do here and it's centered on the tartarian empire conspiracy theory which i was not familiar with the short version of this is that the elites have kept a version of history hidden from us about a race of technologically advanced giants that are the people that actually built places like the united states capitol building the chicago federal building the milan cathedral etc i just i'll play the the trailer here because you kind of need to hear how this is even being like presented to someone out loud and

they think that this will be I guess it'll be taken seriously but here we go this is the trailer for Old World Order Alex you have your own kind of shingle your own production house so like I just that I think there's something that you should keep an eye out for here I mean this

is yeah I mean look this is, yeah, I mean, look, Alex. I do make documentaries, and I'm always looking for collaborators. And I don't want to toot your horn, but weren't you like the head of original programming at HBO? Not the head. But I was, yeah, I was like a VP there, yeah, for a while. Okay, look, again, this is somebody who might know some shit about something worth making. So, again, Alex, let's treat this as a pitch meeting and i just want to show you my new documentary called old world order right there's a lot of architecture in the world today on every

continent of buildings that are much much larger than you would think people of our height would build. What an opener. So they're showing like cathedrals. They're showing cathedrals. It's not even that tall. What they just show. It's just like a regular cathedral. What do they think of the... You could build a ladder as tall as that building.

What would they think of the burj khalifa then never got past the idea of like looking at a building and being like god damn i can't reach that high i can't just like trying to jump to touch the roof i can't get who the fuck all right it gets better it gets better cities in america that look as though they were constructed in medieval europe the outside's incredible but the inside is built like a palace i'm not sure if they're waiting you have to stop hold on i don't know what they're looking at the first person that they put on the screen looks like what you think a professor should look like yeah in a document. She's got like a short kind of male haircut and like the wide frame, you know, regular glasses

and like a shitty painting behind her. And she's at a desk and she's just some white lady. And she's like, the next guy is wearing a bright yellow biking shirt and like huge glasses and has hair down to his chest.

And then the guy after that has like space goggles on everyone's getting bigger and bigger fucking sunglasses on yeah the dude the person the second i appreciate that he's like trying to he's like he's like who looks the most credible let's start with yeah start with the little college professor lady, and we'll work our way to space glasses guy. Yeah, work your way up to the guy who's selling fake Molly at a rave wearing Pit Viper sunglasses.

Yeah, big Molly dealer vibes from both of the second and third talking heads. Yeah, they're all Molly dealers for sure. How did they know how to do this stuff? She said there sure. Schools of architecture back then. How did they know how to do this? She said there weren't schools of architecture back then. How'd they know how to do this? I don't know. This is the best it gets. The best we've ever done.

Look at the quality of these walls. Now you'll go through a neighborhood and every home looks the same. Had we known we're going backwards, everyone would be pissed. As an architect of 20 years, I like to look at a building as telling its own story i'd like to say that stones don't lie and they're giving us timelines of like a year it was built in a year the history that we've been told is a lie why would a regular sized human make something so massive it's so great but it goes to giants like why would a regular sized person in my neighborhood in glendale drive a g-wagon car right that's so huge what is that because he's feeding a giant he's got you know you don't think he's got giants at home he's got a giant he's definitely got a giant dude he's got all that

costco he's got to fit his whole costco haul in that g-wagon yeah they're they continue how did they build that beautiful beautiful building was that building here longer i feel like it was what was actually in the towers what kind of technology was up there these buildings were built by the prior civilization. A beautiful, easy, graceful method of travel. It goes off the rails and they're talking about airships and shit. I can't believe they didn't

show the Statue of Liberty and be like, see? See how tall she is? Look what they did to her. Why would they have made her that tall? Look what they did to her. They covered her in copper. Look at her. It's such's such barbaric treatment so yeah there's an interview uh between the stew peters and the director who's a 9-11 truther slash flat earther because of course you are to fucking direct something like this and they break down exactly for their from their

perspective why this shit is so explosive. So the director said, quote, if you look at some of these older buildings in your community, we'll actually admit some stuff, Stu. It'll say founded in 1898. Okay, all right, I'll take that. But then you go on their website, it says it was constructed in a year.

The timelines don't make any sense, Stu. I mean, so founded in the building context typically means that's when the foundation was built right sure sure sure what else what else do you have uh when it's so funny that they're just like they they're right like the one thing they hit on is like going backwards right like our cities used to have these like giant beautiful works of architecture and like i included a side-by-side image of like a place in kansas city that like used to be a city with like tall you know buildings that look cool and now it's just like an empty highway strode type thing like that that shit happens because of unregulated capitalism and like they're

just trying to get to that's right because that city was probably built by like successful black entrepreneurs and they're like yeah how do we fuck these people build a highway right through their town you know but that's never the theory and then the other the other way we're going backwards is like with like the type of people who can make a documentary and like the fact that this level of intellect is who's just like how would they even like build that they were so stupid back then right and why would the door do why would the door be this big because they they're fucking giants, dude. That's fucking why. No. So then Stu Peters asked, he's like, why is this being covered up? And he's basically saying the elites want to prevent us from knowing about the ability to harness energy from the quote ether which is a quote theoretical universal substance believed during the 19th century to act as the medium for transmission of electromagnetic waves so according to the director with a fucking dope

drug yeah yeah exactly yeah yeah two different things yeah or a wonderful rap diss track by nas like this is the other thing, too. He's saying that the buildings, these older buildings that had spires or stuff, like these domes at the top, were actually transmitters. And they were pulling energy from the ether. Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. That's how they put out their candles. So, okay, got it, got it.

So they're using ether. And then, so what else do they want hidden? So this is where the director goes on he's like quote but real quick on the giants you can't have darwinism you can't have evil oh shit that's right you can't have big bang with giants we're supposed to be coming from monkeys we can't have giants so they created this whole system for many many facets there it wasn't just one reason many reasons technology giants you know covering up the fact that there was previous civilizations here before us that possibly had

more technology than we do now i was like had dude they had like so much more technology than us like what are you even fucking saying like how many technologies do you think we have right now how many technologies do you have i think they they have way more technology. Three, at least. Is there no alien part of this? Have they not gotten to the alien things? It may eventually get there by the end. Because the progression is usually conspiracy theory, aliens,

anti-Semitism. That's usually the direction that it goes. I think what this is trying to do is insert giants into that alien step. I think what this is trying to do is insert giants into that alien step. Or what if super smart giants? Because there is a giant alien race.

I don't know if you know about the Pleiades. They look Nordic. It's literally just some short people saw some tall people. And they're like, whoa! And this is some dumb people saw some smart people or pictures of some stuff that a smart people built a long time ago. That always is what it comes down to is like just underestimating how people have.

There have been smart people since way before you were paying attention. They were playing PlayStation. But it's what's kind of terrifying is that in ancient times, people would explain phenomena they didn't understand by going like, holy, wow, fire sky, must be God throw bolt down. You know what I mean?

And then we learned all this stuff about like, oh no, it's lightning, electrical charges in the cloud. And now we have gone full circle we're like back to must be giant build a giant door that's my door so tall exactly i mean you've listened to our early episodes with that impression by the way yeah yeah yeah episode lightning down sky and make trump for punishment uh okay we've come a long way we've come a long way yeah we

have we have we've evolved so to say i mean i do just want to mention that when or i guess it was like late 1800s early 1900s when they were first discovering giant bone or dinosaur bones uh they thought that the leg bone of one of the dinosaurs was the scrotum of a giant yeah so this isn't new we've been fascinated with giants i think our i think something in us died because like we don't have enough like giant stuff i just finished reading uh bfg rolled dolls bfg to my six-year-old that's a blast but like yeah they i the whole time i was reading it i was like not enough giant stuff yeah these days people used to love giants it is wild like you know like they also ask or they in the conversation like but what about like historical pictures of

like these buildings being constructed and he's like it's photoshop basically he's like there were people at this company that could fake everything. They're like, okay. And then what came of the giants? Why are they here no more? They were wiped out, according to the lore of this theory, by a great mud flood.

They were so technologically advanced and giant that their only weakness was mud. Because they sink in the mud, bro. Their only weakness was mud? Okay. Wait, all in the same place? Yeah, I don't... Yeah, did they all live in one?

Because the buildings they were showing were all over the place. Yeah, exactly. It's not like it was all in the Americas or something. Yeah, someone's got to have some documentation on the mud flood. I suspect this theory has its holes. Yeah, I think they're trying to erase slave labor.

I mean, you want to ask who built the U.S. Capitol? It was enslaved labor. You want to know who built the White House? It was slaves. So like, was the mud flood just a racist code for freed black people? They're like, yeah, the amount of mud flood, if you know what I mean, four score and seven. It's all just horribly racist.

I mean, that's the progression, right? It's like phenomena, stupid explanation. And then behind it is racism. Because you can with that, you can completely erase the concept of enslaved labor that was used to build some of these buildings they've been talking about but then also you get creationism you know what i mean because then it's it's a whole thing it's a super it's putting a fucking stake in the heart of darwin you're like okay yeah yeah cool and big bang no big bang if they're giants right i'm still not sure yeah what what does that mean what do they think the big bang is

like i'm who lit the bang though jack the bat right yeah it's a giant giant guy dude these two giants banged that's what fucking happened the fucking thank you maybe the giants invested plastic and then they got plastic in their balls and then they couldn't make more giants. Yeah, this is all starting to make sense. Anyway, stay tuned. Stay tuned. Stay tuned. All right. Let's take a quick break and we will be back to talk about the latest in reality dating show technology. We'll be right back. reality dating show technology. We'll be right back.

I've been thinking about you. I want you back in my life. It's too late for that. I have a proposal for you. Come up here and document my project. All you need to do is record everything like you always do. One session. 24 hours.

BPM 110. 120. She's terrified. Should we wake her up? Absolutely not. What was that? You didn't figure it out? I think I need to hear you say it.

That was live audio of a woman's nightmare. This machine is approved and everything? You're allowed to be doing this? We passed the review board a year ago. We're not hurting people. There's nothing dangerous about what you're doing. They're just dreams. Dream Sequence is a new horror thriller from Blumhouse Television, iHeartRadio, and Realm. dream sequence is a new horror thriller from blumhouse television iheart radio and realm listen to dream sequence on the iheart radio app apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts and we're back we're back and so hulu is making a dating show that if it wasn't a 30 Rock joke, it like it was something very similar was. And it might have just been like too stupid for to be a 30 Rock joke.

But the dating show is called Virgin Island. OK, go on. It's a pun because it's both set on a tropical island and features a cast of actual virgins. And instead of an eight second joke on 30 Rock, this will be an actual 10 episode season of television in which and this is the description says this stunningly attractive people who have for some reason never had sex will face unexpected twists. never had sex will face unexpected twists. But like, doesn't the stunningly attractive part make it less interesting? Like,

doesn't it kind of feels the same as like, love is blind to me where it was like, everybody's hot. So you're just being like, how, which type of hot person have I fallen in love with behind this curtain or in this case like i don't know it's just like people who a bunch of hot christian people or something is basically what we're gonna get i mean people are virgins for a number of or don't have sex for a number of reasons so it's just like also just the idea of like they're so attractive like what's

wrong they haven't boned like what the my God. What the fuck is the premise? What else is wrong with you? Yeah, yeah, right. It's like, do they have fucking trauma? You must be hideous on the inside. Yeah, exactly. Some bad shit must have happened to you or something. Because how are you that hot and you're a virgin?

It's like, okay, Hulu. Go on, though. But, Miles, you know reality TV better than me. Like, are there shows where people are just, like, normal looking? Where they're just like... Yeah, yeah, of course. Like, okay.

Like on 90 Day Fiancé? Like, not everybody's, like, super hot. Only the ones where it's supposed to be kind of like a freak show, I think. Like, 90 Day Fiancé, like the TLC shows. But it's like, all the Bravo shows, it's just... Yeah, yeah, those are... Yeah, you have to have that, like, perfect it's like all the Bravo shows. It's just, yeah, those are,

yeah. You have to have that like perfect balance, like symmetrical face and, uh, you know, altered features to, to get on. But yeah, I mean, like, I think the one thing though, is like when you get, when it's a show that's about dating, they definitely just want to make people as horny as possible. So they'll typically just lean into like the hottest people that they can put in bikinis and shit like that right so my assumption about this show was that it only exists because someone was like virgin island like that those two words like that needs to be a show title right like how is this not a show already like we, we're leaving money. We're hemorrhaging money, essentially. Someone's like, dude, I was on Google Maps and I was looking for Fuckboy Island and it doesn't exist.

But I found a place called the Virgin Islands. Now, that could be something. Right here. Let me show you something. As someone who makes this, not this particular type of TV, but like unscripted TV, it is like a thousand monkeys

on typewriters kind of thing like they like these big companies just have like rooms full of interns who are just like basically the equivalent of throwing like darts at a board with a bunch of words on it you know what i mean and like putting them together like i once we didn't sell it and it like turned into a completely different show but i I once was like, just to see how execs would react. I just started telling them that I was working on a show called Nana Thunderdome. And then they were like, what? And I was like, yeah, Nana Thunderdome. It's like, like everyone thinks their grandma's the best, but like who is actually the best.

Right. And I just thought the words Nana and Thunderdome did not belong side by side. Several people were like, bring that to us. Like when it's ready. You better fucking bring that to me. It's like a death match, right? They fight each other to the death or something? That's the ideal version.

I wanted it to be like American Gladiators, but with grandmas. That's what I was thinking. So many broken hips. But then I was like, yeah, I think it's like a liability to shoot for all of it.'s what I was thinking. So many broken hips. Yeah. Yeah. But then I was like, yeah, I think it's like a liability. The version I'm thinking, I don't know if it can be made in the United States. My uncle Vince used to have like a lot of hypotheticals about like what our

elderly relatives and like, if we thought they could get like a single rushing yard in the NFL without dying. What a fucking thought experiment that's a good metric jack you think uncle joe could get a single rushing yard if they handed off to him every time oh my god without dying every time for a whole game you think who's who's linebacker verse and ray lewis is waiting for him on the other side but all right so i assumed virgin island the only reason for this this is based on a uk or there is a uk version of the show and it's called intimacy retreat that's i'm not i'm no professional but uh just as an outsider looking in, that title sucks so badly.

Is that a play on something? It's also classic British. Have you ever watched a British gangster show and been shocked that their vocabulary is so... The kids in the projects have a vocabulary that none of us have.

They're just far better than... Words. the projects have a vocabulary that none of us have right yeah so much better because they speak actual english words because there's also there's also another dating show called naked attraction which is just fully naked people like it just reveals people from the feet and they slowly creep up and you just see their full naked body and like the contestants eliminate people based on what they see and that's just called naked attraction. Wow. That's the UK one?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. And it's like, I remember being like, oh, this is interesting. And it's just like, you immediately become desensitized to like the naked bodies. Because it's like, it's so sort of clinical where like they go around. They're like, like the first phase is just showing them from the waist down, fully nude, like men and women and then like people go around okay they're like that's a little too much scrotum for me and like they're saying this shit out loud like this is fucking wild in america that show's called naked hot or not yeah exactly exactly hot or not. Naked Island. Naked Island.

Fuck city. Yeah. Fuck city. But anyways, one of the problems that the UK show ran into, a couple of problems. First, how exactly do you determine whether or not the contestants are actually virgins? I know. Or just like one of the three. I know.

I know. Oh, yeah? You can tell? Yeah i know i just gotta ask him a couple i i can i can figure out if a dude is pretty quick dude ask him like a couple questions and the other they struggled to find anyone who wanted to take part in the uk show so yeah i have now loosened the entry requirements to allow non-virgins in. That's because all those brits just fuck. You know what I mean?

Non-virgin? Come on, bro. You ain't gonna find that around here. Come on, bro. More virgin, innit? I thought bare sex, man. Bare sex, man. As they say. Like with a condom. With Bear sex, man. Bear sex. As they say. Like with a condom, you know.

Yeah, with a condom. But bear sex. But bear sex, bruv. Yeah, like, we're definitely, like, in the era of lowest common denominator reality shows. I mean, like, you think of, like, MILF Manor when that came out, like, last year. And I was like, is this fucking for real? Like, this is the most fucking weird backwards incestuous dating show i've ever seen and like now that with their season two they've kind of

like re-tinkered it a bit so it's not like women fighting over who's gonna fuck each other's son now uh and it's oh it's not no they decided that was too far yeah they i think they realized when everyone's like this is the most disgusting show I've ever seen. That now they have like young men who are there for like the MILFs. And then like the turn is like after the second day, all the guys' dads who are also single show up. So now like the MILFs are like, oh, there's the 23-year-old version or the 53-year-old version of this guy. Still equally fucking. So the 23-year year olds all have single

dads and they don't know their dads are gonna show up no and then the and the dads apparently didn't know that they their their sons were there either well yeah yeah yeah so just like emotionally devastating yeah yeah yeah in a way that's wildly entertaining i kind of yeah yeah they're virgin stuff i mean it feels like so 90s. Yeah, right? This obsession with like virgins, like really? American Pie, the reality show, is kind of what they're going with here. Yeah.

I feel like we live, though, in a part of the country where that maybe is true. But I feel like there's at least least 50 of this country that's very obsessed with virginity and oh yeah we're stopping you from fucking but if you do fuck just make sure that you are forced to have a baby right right right yeah it's like a lot of people who we're like who thinks about this and then as it turns out a lot of people are thinking about this too much. But then does this show appeal to it? Because if they're about being chased, you know what I mean? Are they as interested in it because they're like, they're trying to get these virgins to fuck. Or maybe, or maybe not.

I don't know. It feels very inappropriate. Why pressure these people when they should just be committing their virginity to Christ? It's a terrible idea to marry someone within 90 days. But I still watch, you know watch 90 Days of the Odyssey. Maybe they just hate watching it. Going like, you disgusting sinners. I wish I could have been on this show.

Hold out, hold! Hold out, Jamie. You don't need him or his dad. Think of your salvation.

Amazing. Is there a work of media that you've been enjoying? Yes. Maybe a tweet? Everything 50 Cent has started to put out since the Diddy stuff started. It is like the most joy.

I mean, he's not a perfect person, but he has never fucked with 50 cent like when rick ross fucking 50 cent he brought his baby mama onto like a podcast and had her air everything about him and like 50 has just been demolishing the entire combs family for like months now he just sold an entire docu-series i know the fucking bidding war i heard over his because he already made a documentary they're like everybody's trying to buy 50 cents Diddy documentary. And it's all like, just, I mean,

it's like, I think it just started as him, like just being the pettiest rapper alive. And then he was like, I'm going to sell a documentary based on this genius. So. And it's, it's wild too,

because I saw like Mace on his podcast that he has with Cameron. They're like, Oh, you want me to give a comment? And he's like, just watch the documentary. So you already have people that were in Diddy's orbit who are alluding to the fact that they've already given,

they're like, they're not even revealing what they're saying in this documentary. So, so much is going to come out. His son rapped in the disc. He made a disc track about 50 and 50. I should probably say. And his,

and in this, he's's like the feds raided our house too bad they didn't look at the other house we bought right next door and 50 cents like why would you say that in a song you're under investigation that's not a brag if it's if it weren't true that's the worst thing you could say is Narcon.
