These are some of our

favorite segments from this week, all edited together into one nonstop infotainment laugh stravaganza. Yeah. So without further ado, here is the weekly zeitgeist. What is something from your search history that's revealing about who you are? Search history. Okay. Well, I recently looked up what do Tevas look like now? Tevas are like sort of like dad sandals.

I recently became a dad, so I feel like I should, thank you very, very much. Congrats, man. Thank you. Oh, how to keep a baby alive. That's another thing I've been sort of frantically Googling recently.

How much water do you need to put on your baby to stay alive? To stay alive. Yes. Water baby? Water baby, question mark? Morning or night? How many times water baby per day, please?

Daylight savings. Daylight savings. But Tevas, I think I've been trying to transition to a dad sandal. So I just want to sort of keep updated on the Tevas and on the Birkenstocks and just sort of gauge where the dad sandal market is at now in 2019. Well, Birkenstocks are like hot. Those are hot. Yeah.

Tevas, I feel like, are still lame. Dude, if you're telling people down on Larchmont, you're a liberal-ass dad, you better have some Birkenstocks on. I'm going to tell you that shit right now. They'll be like, all right, get out of here, Magga guy, with your Havianas or some shit. Your Reef flip-flops. Wait, don't Tevas still look the same, right?

Because that wave came back. Did the Teva wave come back? Oh, yeah, because I remember last year, Anna was like, oh, I'm trying to get like, oh, I want these Tevas. And I was like, well, we used to clown on people with Tevas. Exactly. But that was 20 years ago. Yeah.

Maybe Tevas are cool. What's lame is cool again. Yeah. I mean, because the ankle strap sandal became like a very fashionable thing for a while there. That's so funny. So maybe people were just like, well, that all started with T-Bone. If we can all as a culture just learn to lean in and fully embrace Velcro, I would be grateful.

Velcro all over the body. And I just really wanted to explain that. They came out with a whole new platform set, which became very cool with the young millennial girls who were trying to vibe and look cute. Cool. Be like old trendy, but at the same time have a little platform heel to your way. And then they came in cute colors. So we were like, honey, they back. They back.

Old trendy is my nickname. Me and my boy old trendy. I feel really validated by that, Anna. So it sounds like I am accidentally on trend. It's more of a Zad sandal now. Right. Great. Okay, cool.

And I feel like chunky old dad shoes, like dad sneakers, are like the wave with young kids now. Oh, yeah. Well, because everything's in like 20-year cycles. I'm going to have to go to my mom's house and bust out my old academic jeans that had a bunch of leather patches on them. Leather patches. And I'll be like, yeah, I'm in the building. Travis Scott, man. He's always rocking the leather patch.

Exactly. Speaking of 20 years, I believe Space Jam is right on cue coming back, for example, 20 years later. So, yeah, get ready for these baggy-ass basketball shorts. Come back. Exactly. What is something from your search history that is revealing about who you are? That is a great question.

Thank you. The first thing is Ronan Farrow, Frank Sinatra. That is very revealing about me. I'm sure you guys have discussed this before. Oh, that's his dad? That's clearly his dad. Like, have you seen Ronan Farrow's face? Yeah.

Now, have you seen Frank Sinatra's face? Yeah, he looks like young old blue eyes. Does he have young blue eyes? He's got he's got young blue eyes dude oh he's young blue also yeah it's the same type of blue it's the same age of blue and like you look at woody allen as an old man as a young man as an in-between man there is no way there's no way that ronan pharaoh wait who's his dad supposed to be his dad is supposed to be woody allen no his biological father his biological father is supposed to be woody allen no yes that yeah yes so uh the story there is what now okay so me and we show me side

to side with woody allen so mia farrow uh married to Woody Allen and had Ronan Farrow. Right. Right. And so people, as Ronan got older and more Frank Sinatra-like, people were like, that guy kind of looks like fucking Frank Sinatra. And that was the thing. For a while there, there was no real conspiracy about it. People really didn't know. But now he's at the age where you're like, it is undeniable.

Any child can look like Frank Sinatra. Jack, I'm sure you look like Frank Sinatra. I look a lot like Frank Sinatra. I have blue eyes. You kind of do look like Frank Sinatra. Oh, thank you. But now, and also Mia Farrow says it's entirely possible. Oh, does she?

Yeah. Well, that is really good. Also, when you look at young Woody Allen, like I don't see any of Ronan Farrow's traits coming up. I see me. When I look at young Woody Allen, I'm like, yeah, he looks like me. Look at this. Same dude.

These news websites, they're being scandalous with all these side-by-sides where you're just like, okay, we get it. That's his dad. They're doing the side-by-sides, but like finding places where they're wearing the same color yeah putting that next to each other yeah that's true yeah making the same face but it does look a lot like him um i mean and i'm no expert in dna yeah but i am an expert at knowing when you're not no i'm not wait why do we have this guy on again first of all i thought he was the dna that business card you hand out when you're out and about says expert at DNA.

What the fuck is that then? Yeah. Dee's nuts, asshole. Dee's nuts, asshole. Yeah, I'm an expert at Dee's nuts, asshole. It's like a thing. It's an icebreaker at every party. I'm looking again.

It says that underneath. Gets me in sticky situations when I'm an expert witness in a murder trap. Occasionally, I show up in court like court like listen this is an elaborate joke that works great at parties but also if they look like each other then that's probably the killer that's usually what i say so yeah i mean he just looks exactly like him there's a there's a story and the kid stays in the picture where mia farrow is like I think, married to Frank Sinatra during the filming of Rosemary's Baby. Yeah.

But then the kid, Robert Evans, rest in peace. Yeah, RIP. Does he have an affair with her and gets her out of that relationship? It's been a while since I read the book, but probably. Right. That sounds right. Right. That sounds right.

Bottom line is, look at those two photos right your honor exactly there was a romantic involvement and she even the fact that she says right it's possible i mean that's all you need to know she said they divorced but they never really broke up so meaning that like it would also mean because he was born like the mid to late 80s i think right i think he held young so so he was so frank was still an old man but dude still had the thickest ropes and so and i believe it because he looks virile oh yeah oh yeah i mean so i'm just saying like is that part of her statement also yeah we divorced never really broke up he had the thickest ropes. What is something you think is overrated?

Well, it's in the same bracket, but Wi-Fi on planes. Get it out of there. Get it out of there. Get it out, huh? No one's that busy. No one's got that much on. Yeah. Who freaking cares?

Right. Just take however long the flight is to yourself. Yeah. I hate it. And people who say, well, just don't use it, obviously are projecting the idea that I have the self-control not to use free Wi-Fi onto me. I just don't think it's necessary.

I'm sure that there are people who, yeah, sure, it makes sense if you have something going on urgent. But we were surviving before plain Wi-Fi. Split it into smoking sections and Wi-Fi-Fi and non Wi-Fi or even entirely independent flights if your life is so busy you need to go why fine you get on a wife light that's right but don't don't I don't want to see people on their laptop sending emails when I'm trying to enjoy why him yeah yeah drives me nuts I the thing I don't like is when you start people doing Instagram and

snapchat stories like in the Instagram and Snapchat stories in the flight, and I'm like, yo, can I have a drink? The thing that bothers me is people, there's always a lot of people with spreadsheets open. I'm just like, how the fuck are you getting that type of work done on a plane? Because their jobs are overly demanding. It doesn't have anything to do with them. That's always a personal attack on you. Right.

Yeah. No, I ask them. They're like, hey, hey, hey, sir, over here. Yeah. Yeah. Full spreadsheet. I got like 17,000 cells I'm working with. I just think planes are pretty much all we, you know, is one of the few shared spaces

we have left. Yeah. And I don't know. I don't want them to take it away just yet. What would you tell someone who's, let me play the role of someone who says, but guy, I'm a high powered dot, dot, dot. I need to send emails, man. That's like the latest dot-com billionaire. Yeah, dot, dot, dot, dot, ellipsis X.

What do you say to me? I could be losing valuable work time up here. Well, thanks for taking the time to talk to me. Yes. I don't really care about your situation sir okay not my problem i just say will you answer me this do you have any spare change yeah i got pockets full of coins right now one thing one devil's advocate there would be delta is now uh editing their movies so uh that what was the movie directed by olivia wilde this book smart book smart uh they edited out like a uh same-sex

love scene and the word lesbian from that movie delta wow so that's one thing yeah that's when it gets weird yeah it's like delta beam your uh propaganda into my brain if you don't have Wi-Fi. That's crazy. Yeah. Because I watched Escape from Dannemora on the plane, and they left all that raunchy shit in there. Yeah. And I look like a really perverted guy on the passenger. The dude next to me, I'm watching a scene where, what's his name?

Was it Patricia Arquette? Is just having fucking jail sex with Paul Dano and shit. And the guy next to me was like, what's her name? Was it Patricia Arquette? Is just having fucking jail sex with Paul Dano and shit. And the guy next to me was like, what the fuck is this? And like, it looked like, I was just like, bro,

it's a show, man. Mind your own fucking business. You should have turned to him and been like, don't tell anybody. Yeah. But that would have,

that would have only made things worse. If you haven't seen that, that's a, yeah, escape from Dan Amor. That's a moment from Benicio Del Toro's performance that is, just go Google it. I've seen it. I just deliberately acted like I haven't seen it. To spare us embarrassment.

What is a myth? What's something people think is true you know to be false? Well, now I don't know if you boys have heard this, but there was once a nymph who lived in the woods named Echo. And Echo was a delightful nymph, and she loved to natter. She was always nattering away. Natter. Do you have the word natter here?

It's like chatter. Chatter. Okay. And one day she was just nattering away and Hera. Do you know who Hera is? Hera? H-E-R-A. Queen of the gods. Wife of Zeus. She was out on the hunt for Zeus in the woods. Okay. I believe all this so far. Yeah, yeah. This all seems to be above board. And she comes across Echo and she says, Echo, have you seen Zeus? And Echo is just so obsessed with nattering as Echo.

She goes, da-da-da, and keeps interrupting Hera, and Hera becomes very frustrated and says, Echo, I'm really trying to have a conversation with you here, and Echo keeps nattering away. It's so good to see you, Hera. You're looking delightful. Right. And Hera says, this is really the bloody final straw for me.

Yeah. As punishment, I curse you. Oh, no. You can no longer speak your own mind freely. You have to, you're a life damned to eternity for just parroting back, repeating what is said to or around you. Got it. And Echo was obviously devastated by this and took a long walk in the woods. So demoralized

was she. But thankfully, while she was walking in the woods, she saw a handsome man. Okay. Narcissus. Okay. And he was taking a stroll. Oh my god, all my favorite characters were in this one. This guy, he was handsome. And he was taking a stroll along and Echo wanted

to say something but couldn't say anything because she can only repeat what is said about her. Right. And she followed Narcissus who found a body of water, and he looked into the body of water, and he saw a reflection of the most beautiful damn face he'd ever seen. And he was looking at it, and he said, I love you. And Echo from her hiding place repeated back to Narcissus, I love you.

And Narcissus was like, oh, my God, this beautiful face loves me. And said, I wish I could, you know, sort of starts falling in love with the face and eventually plunges into the body of water and drowns. And Echo was so heartbroken by this turn of events, she stopped eating, she stopped drinking, and eventually she withered away until only her voice was left. Anyway, the whole time I've thought that echoes are caused by a reflection off a relatively even surface. Shows you what I know. So you're correcting the myth that echoes are caused by reflections, the sound waves off of a...

Yeah. I've actually seen that documentary. That's a good one. The more you know. Yeah. Indeed. They were talking about Echo the Dolphin. Yeah.

That is a... I didn't realize all those myths were so closely tied together. Wow. Yeah. Yeah. All right, we're going to take a quick break, and we'll be back to get into some news. When you think of Mexican culture, you think of avocado, mariachi,

delicious cuisine, and, of, Lucha Libre. It doesn't get more Mexican than this. Lucha Libre is known globally because it is much more than just a sport and much more than just entertainment.

This is Lucha Libre Behind the Mask, a 12-episode podcast in both English and Spanish about the history and cultural richness of Lucha Libre.

Listen to Señora Sex Ed on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Dr. Laurie Santos, host of the Happiness Lab podcast. As the U.S. elections approach, it can feel like we're angrier and more divided than ever.

But in a new, hopeful season of my podcast, I'll share what the science really shows, that we're surprisingly more united than most people think. We all know something is wrong in our culture, in our politics, and that we need to do better and that we can do better. With the help of Stanford psychologist Jamil Zaki. It's really tragic. If cynicism were a pill, it'd be a poison. We'll see that our fellow humans,

even those we disagree with, are more generous than we assume. My assumption, my feeling, my hunch is that a lot of us are actually looking for a way to disagree and still be in a relationship with each other. All that on the Happiness Lab. Listen on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts. And we're back well there's another uh supporter that trump might have gained or might gain if

elizabeth warren's the democratic nominee because bill gates has said that he doesn't know who he'd vote for if it was warren versus trump uh seriously yeah the the guy who everyone's like, oh, he's so nice. He's such a nice fella. The exact quote was, if I had to pay $20 billion in taxes, it's fine. But when you say I should pay $100 billion, then I'm starting to do a little math about what I have left over. I'm just kidding. But seriously.

Wait, including? Yeah, he did say, he said, sorry, I'm just kidding but seriously like yeah he did say he said sorry I'm just kidding so you really want the incentive system to be there and you can go a long way without threatening that but still but still so as Ryan Grimm the I think he used to be BuzzFeed News

director but he pointed out on Twitter that despite being famous for giving giving all his money away, he's worth more money today than he was when he retired, Bill Gates. Right. It's just all tax and son of shit. And stocks too.

Right. I never understand. There was that great clip that was circulating a couple of weeks ago that says all of this more articulately than I'm about to. But just like the whole like congratulating billionaires on like giving a small amount of their fortune away and that being the justification to keep like keep laws in place that allow for it. Like that's why we shouldn't abolish billionaires because sometimes because then they might not share right half of a percent of their wealth and you're like legally they should have to do that plus more anyways it's just

uh i don't know nice guy bill gates i don't fuck with it and and that that netflix series is genuinely i watched like part of the first episode and it's just like nice guying him it's the same thing as like musk going on fucking joe rogan and smoking weed you're just like you're just trying to be a person except for that you're not put me more off like dude why are you hitting that blunt like that yeah it's i don't know yeah that's i guess i'm not surprised but that's a fucking well this is where you see this the real class warfare starting to begin, especially with candidates. And there is a few write-ups just looking at how many billionaires support each candidate. I think Pete Buttigieg has the most billionaire donors.

And then Cory Booker. He's got McFarlane. Cory Booker. He's got Seth. He's got Seth. What shows you, though, they have more faith in Buttigieg than they do Biden because Biden only has like 13 billionaire donors. I think Elizabeth Warren has two or one. Bernie is the only person with none.

Right. But again, it shows you that there is this thing where because as people talk more and more out loud, they're like, wait, there's two progressive candidates that are a threat to my like,

just offensive wealth accumulation. Yeah. Yeah. To say like, well, I'm trying to look at what's left over for me. Right. For what? Three billion dollars, you fuck? Yeah, so this Twitter user, Unionized Santa Elves,

pointed out that a million seconds is 12 days. A billion seconds is 31 years. Just to put the sheer amount of like what perspective right into perspective he has 106 billion dollars so the 75th percentile of american like somebody who's doing well compared to uh everybody else has uh i think 36000 net worth. So they have the equivalent of four days. Bill Gates has 3,286 years. Worth of net worth there, if you put your net worth into that. Yeah, if you put their net worth into the seconds calculator.

Moses was alive when 3,286 years ago. Like literally Moses. Right, right, right. Like literally from the Bible. Every single day. Bill Gates is like, I'm out here spending. Like literally Moses. Right, right, right. Like literally from the Bible. He could be going to Bucca every single day. Bill Gates is like, I'm out here spending money from Moses time. Right.

Still spending money from 88. Yeah. BC. We get four days. There's been a lot of, there was like a TikTok of like a teenager trying to figure out how far Bill Gates' wealth could go. And it like could literally solve world hunger and

not even be half gone like it's just so it's so fucking absurd yeah every day he wakes up and decides not to do that with his money and hey but we will give money to npr but like to think that that's a fair division of resources oh yeah is literally impossible to conceive of because he Oh, yeah. I read another article or just a stat about how a lot of these hyper wealthy people are running out of investment ideas. So now they're just hoarding like something like, I don't know, two or three trillion dollars in bank accounts. For fucking what? Like it's just, it makes me so mad. And then I have like family members who are like, well, why should they be forced to give away so much money that they earned? And you're like, well, look at like, that's on the assumption that it was all legitimately earned and not by just hoarding or withholding or every

loophole on the fucking planet. Either way, it's just the inequality should just be fucking offensive to people. The way that you accumulate that is through being a predator and exploiting the shit out of an unequal system.

The person who hit Powerball, yeah, fine, leave them alone. Right. Whatever. Sure, whatever. But if you're out here on some multinational conglomerate shit and you're just siphoning all this money

out of different parts of the world, it ends bad. We're already in the process of seeing how terrible the income inequality is in this country and let alone the rest of the fucking earth. Right. It's just like, show me a billionaire that got that way ethically. It doesn't exist.

That's not possible. I think people are picturing like, okay, I know rich people, so these people must be like that just a little bit more, like two times more, three times more. Yeah, it's not your cousin who's doing really well. Right. But also, fuck him. it's yeah seriously fuck that guy but it's so far and beyond just anything that we can even conceive of the amount of money and inequality that exists and i'm sure if you ask like an average person like how much what's what's your dream like wealth

lifestyle i'm sure probably one i'm look if you're not completely fucked up from celebrity consumer Like an average person, like how much, what's your dream like wealth lifestyle? I'm sure probably just want to, look, if you're not completely fucked up from celebrity consumer culture, you'd be like, I just want a house. I want to be able to go on vacations with my family. I want to be able to get an operation if I need it. Right. That's it. Versus like, hey, I'm going to like, I don't know, piss away a couple billion dollars on whatever.

I don't know. It's fucking. So, but, you know, there was a video of him jumping over the chair that time people like that yeah he does have hops like that he's got hops so maybe he does deserve that much more money sick vertical as you say mad boosties have you seen that video most yeah of the chair hop yeah yeah and it is is a club. We've really come full circle. It's a good job. All right, actually. Leave more on.

All right. All right. It's capable of amazing things. Must jump this high to hoard your wealth. Something that is overrated. Oh. I feel is, well, this is like a self-owned. Overrated is being caught alone in public and then lying

about it yeah oh yeah i favorited that tweet of yours you just gotta own it you just gotta own it it was it was i went i like to go places by myself i had like my first day off in forever on sunday i was like you take the dog i'm i'm going to go see. It's the Lord's Day. Yeah, I'm going to go on a couple roller coasters at Universal, and then I'm going to see two movies. And it was a great, it was a glorious day. That sounds wonderful. It was such a nice day.

But then the second I got to Universal, I got spotted by someone that I know who works there, and I'm like really tensed up. And he's like, Jane, good to see you. I was, and I like really tensed up and he's like, Jane, good to see you. I was like, I'm meeting five people.

He's like, Oh, okay. And then he saw me, he saw me. It was, it sucked. I was having a great time.

I went to animal actors. He saw me in line for a minute. You did some writing. You said in the Harry Potter section? I did some. Or you do sometimes, if people are in the area, you might catch you at your favorite writing spot.

Yeah, you might see me in the back of the Harry Potter restaurant eating Harry Potter potatoes. What are Harry Potter potatoes? Potatoes that cost $12. Are they mashed? They're just mashed potatoes. It's the most expensive potatoes

in the entire fucking world. It really hurts my feelings, but you're paying for the app but do you like them right but i'm guessing for you they're like you look at that menu like you know what i'm gonna go with the 12 potatoes again yeah not like uh oh shit i want to try them there's other options it's like a weirdly i i don't know they shouldn't have gone with like let's make english food there because english food sucks yeah well when done right like a proper i love like pies like british pies like meat pies they have those there what's the music sting for when miles starts talking about british food i don't know we'll have to think we'll find some chamber music oh nice uh but yeah i guess i got spotted in line

of minions by the same person. By the same guy. And you were still by yourself. Did you make an explanation or was it just one of those eyes where you catch eyes? He kept walking, man. He kept walking. I opened my mouth to say something and he was like, it's too late. You're like, no, they died. You've said enough, Jamie.

It sucks too because he's a lot younger than me. He's like 19. And he just walked away. He's like 19. And he's just like walked away. He's so nice. And he just walked away with his braces. And he's like, I can't fucking believe it. I can't believe what a fucking loser you are. I'm a fucking liar.

Have you ever seen a TV show? You're supposed to just kiss some dude who's next to you. And be like, oh, it's my boyfriend. And that's how we meet. Yeah, exactly. Get off me, lady. Just go with it, okay? I just stayed in line for Minions and Minions Ride sucks.

Does it? I don't know why I was doing it. Yeah, I have like story notes for the Minions Ride. All right, let's hear it. I feel like it's too plot heavy. Oh, okay. There's too much going on. There's an adoption narrative in the Minions Ride.

In a ride? Yeah. No. An adoption narrative? The Minions ride. In a ride? Yeah. No. An adoption narrative. The premise of- Well, I guess that is the plot of the first movie. What's the journey you take? Give me the log line of the ride.

It's too much. It's two different things. First of all, the audience is being turned into Minions. That's fun. That should just be the ride. That's a blast. But there's a second plot line where the three little girls that Gru adopted has forgotten, or it seems like he's forgotten their adoption anniversary, and they're really upset.

Oh, my goodness. That's the subplot. No. And then at the end of the ride, Gru comes out and is like, just kidding, I didn't forget. Here's a balloon. Oh. And then that's it. Ride over.

But yeah, no, Parasite was like the best movie I've seen all year. I loved it so much. And Jojo Rabbit, pretty good. Boom. What is something from your search history that's revealing about who you are? I looked through this and it's all kind of

embarrassing I feel like. I was doing a deep dive on Jeremy Renner's musical career. As one does. We're fans. Yeah for a show. It's for like a character. Doing a lot of that. Is the character just a huge fan? Well it's sort of a character. He's like of that is the character just a huge fan well it's

That guy rules. Wow. I wasn't listening, but I heard you.

cordyceps, and lion's mane with a little bit of turmeric. Wait, I'm sorry, what was the, chaga? Chaga,

cordyceps, reishi, and lion's mane with a bit of turmeric, sea salt, and also the chaga. I don't know what chaga is. I'd say it's a mushroom.

It grows in the upper region cold climate. It's a high elevation. Yeah, it's harvested. It's fair trade, though, so don't worry. Great, great. It's fully fair trade. Whenever I buy it, I always bow. Right.

That guy definitely bows a lot. Yeah, he bows. I typically bow before the funguses, before I remove them, just to acknowledge their cycle. Every time I use a toilet, I bow. I learned that when I was visiting Tibet. I never flush.

Yes. Never flush. All right, we're going to take another quick break and we'll be right back. Hello, everyone. I am Lacey Lamar. And I'm Amber Ruffin, a better Lacey Lamar. Boo.

As the U.S. elections approach, it can feel like we're angrier and more divided than ever. But in a new, hopeful season of my podcast, I'll share what the science really shows, that we're surprisingly more united than most people think. We all know something is wrong in our culture, in our politics, and that we need to do better and that we can do better.

With the help of Stanford psychologist Jamil Zaki. It's really tragic. If cynicism were a pill, it'd be a poison. We'll see that our fellow humans, even those we disagree with, are more generous than we assume. My assumption, my feeling, my hunch, is that a lot of us are actually looking for a way to disagree and still be in a relationship with each other. All that on the Happiness Lab. Listen on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts. And we're back. All right, let's get some beverage updates. There's a lot going on.

Bev updates. Really? There's a lot going on? Yeah. First off, in hard seltzer news, Four Loko and Bud Light will be stepping into the arena. So is Four Loko a company? I thought that was just a beverage made by some irresponsible...

It was. I don't know if they were bought. Is it a company? Is it an idea? Is it a lifestyle? Hard to say. It's actually sold by Fusion Projects of Chicago, Illinois. Okay. Okay.

Yes. Do they make like battery acid or something? I don't know what they do. Just accidentally it was a byproduct of some other like industrial process.

Well, no, no. They were Well, because it was like Ohio State frat guys that first that's what they are. Right. That's how the first one came out

and that's when people were fucking It's just caffeine and like soda and lots of booze. I still never had one. I missed, I missed, I definitely missed the like peak of it when it was really, really horrible.

But I, I, I just, I've just always been a Mike scout. I've, I've had a few lokes in my time. You've loked up? They are, they are brain destroyers and soul destroyers. But look, they're now getting into the lighthearted seltzer game. But this shit is going to be 12%, which is down. Originally, they were like, this is about to be a 14% seltzer. But I guess 12 seems easier.

When you consider, I think the other ones are about five. They're very low, yeah. And they're getting petty because they all know because i guess white claw's most popular flavor is black cherry they are also offering a black cherry flavor because they want to let you know i fuck with truly that's my hard sell to choice oh yeah truly i like truly they're good the made by sam adams i think oh are they boston beer company i believe yeah that's just a little that's deep row. I knew that, and that's why I did it. Sláinte! Fucking

get my Truly, crack my Truly, watch Boston Legal. Hey, grab me another Truly, pal. And then Bud Light has theirs, Bud Light Seltzer, which will early next year, and they're doing right. They're like, it's 5%. Okay. But doing the similar thing, they will have a black cherry, a lemon

lime, a strawberry, and mango. Mango truly, I've had very intense. Mango truly is too much. It is, right? I do the berry. I do,

I can't not. I saw the mango truly, I was like, I think this will be good. And I was like, this is a little too flavorful. I haven't had a mango seltzer that I've liked,

I don't think. I've been like trying to, because the Mike's Heart was really, I mean, I'm like, something's wrong with me. Yeah.

What, the Mike's Heart mango? Mike's Heart, no, just Mike's I'm like, something's wrong with me. Yeah. What, the Mike's heart mango? Mike's heart. No, just Mike's heart in general. She was in a cycle. I just, I'm like, I need to find a different, you know, it can't be every night. You can't have a nightcap of a Mike's heart every night. Come on, don't say that. It starts to affect your skin.

You start growing hair where hair don't belong. Wow. Under your fingernails. Cool fringe. You're supposed to have nails, suddenly suddenly there's hair what kind of manicure is that uh just too much mike's hard it's just like a new thing i'm doing uh but yeah i don't know so is mike's hard entering the game have they entered they kind of already are i have a feeling it's like anything probably every single person who's making alcohol realizes this is the wave that you've got to surf. So they're going to hop into it. But, you know, I will try the Four Loko.

I mean, it's pretty good. It tastes terrible. 12% is more than any beer, right? Yeah. I mean, it would be a ridiculous quadruple IPA. It's like a highly alcoholic wine. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

What is something you think is underrated? Oh, watching movies on planes. Okay. I love watching movies on planes, and whenever I tell people I watched a movie on a plane, they go, oh, what, on that little screen? Right. Yeah, that's the screen they give you on the plane. But I just think it's a great viewing environment

because it's one of the few places where you're totally untethered from the real world. And so there's no opportunity for distraction. It's either that or your thoughts. What's going to win out? A movie. Definitely not thoughts I think I watched Jupiter Rising

I watched Parasite On the flight over here From New Zealand Oh they had that already Yeah yeah It was on the plane And I was like Holy

This is Because everyone had been talking about it I wanted to see it So you know Here's a perfect opportunity Right And I was so pleased And I told my friend

Who I'm staying with And she said Why would you Watch it on the plane Yeah I said because it was on I was on the plane It was an opportunity the movie was on the plane so we've talked about the other side of this where we sort of side with the directors and the cinephiles where uh there's the netflix watching movies at like 1.5 speed that's bullshit don't don't do that but also like people who are like you must see it on a full screen.

It's glorious. It all depends. As it was intended. Unless it was shot in large format, and I get that, but I don't think it necessarily... If you're only relying on the fact that you shot it in large format, then maybe your movie's lacking a little bit. Right. But, you know.

I think it's like so much in life. It's not binary. If you tell people, do you watch movies on the plane, they go, what about screens, movie screens? It's like having a Kindle or something. And it's like, well, I just could never read on a Kindle. I love the feel of a book. No one is stopping you from buying a book.

It's not one or the other. And at the end of the day, if we've both read the book, maybe me on the Kindle and you in the paperback version, we will still have the exact same conversation. That's right. And I will have the best takes, and everyone will praise me. Well, someone goes, whoa, whoa, I think he read the Kindle version. Yeah, right.

You can just kind of tell the way he's thinking about it. But I love that on airplanes, though, it feels like the perfect time to get a lot of just cram movies in that you normally wouldn't have time for. Absolutely. And it's a blessing. And I think you're more emotionally invested. Like, I find I laugh harder or I'm more susceptible to cry at movies on the plane. I think something to do with the altitude.

Everything's heightened. Yeah. I remember I got off a plane. And I thought, what's the movie? Was it called Why Him the Bryan Cranston James Franco vehicle yeah

I was like this is the greatest movie of all time Why Him and I was shouted down for that take yeah well it happens you know

I think the bar is lower and I've never you know it's funny a lot of times I'll start something on Netflix and be like this is trash I can't watch this anymore

never done it on an airplane yeah I'll sit all the way through and be like what this is trash. I can't watch this anymore. Never done it on an airplane. Yeah. I'll sit it all the way through. Absolutely. Maybe the boy car will get with the girl car. A little fun to the Concords reference there. Yeah. Have you been able to unsee your experience with Why Him?

Or is it still one of your five favorite movies? I would never watch it again. Okay. Got it. I don't think the movie, independent of that viewing experience, holds up to scrutiny. I was going to say, you actually kind of have to see it on a full screen to really appreciate Franco's performance.

All right, that's going to do it for this week's weekly Zeitgeist. Please like and review the show if you like the show. Means the world to Miles. He needs your validation, folks. I hope you're having a great weekend, and I will talk to you Monday. Bye. Thank you. We'll be right back.
