How are you? It's heaven. Heaven to be back with my fucking guys. Blair, I noticed when Jackie was saying was saying hey we should try a tough mutter event you started breaking your neck shaking your head like no you don't want to do that you don't want to do that well you know i know this will shock you miles but actually i was forced to do them as a family growing up um yeah are you for real that sounds awful i'm dead family the most fit family on earth or something no my parents are both in their late 60s and have abs.

It's hell. Wow. Wait, your parents are the people in their 60s with abs? Yeah, dog. I see people like that out and about wherever I'm at. The beaches, I see people who are really fit and you're like, what the fuck? What kind of program are they on?

They're doing Tough Mudders as families. Yeah, and they have the nerve to ask me how I became a comedian. Relief, that's how. Trying to find relief from your fucking abs. You know what, Larry? Listen, I'm going to go ahead and take the side of the parent on this. You know, I know Will Smith said parents just don't understand, but I think, you know, your parents get it.

And when me and Miles do this Tough Mudder, when the zeit gang go ahead and sign a petition uh if we get 2 000 signatures you're holding up a paper right now that says you're contractually obligated to join us yeah oh shit blair yeah you gotta come too you gotta come so many you're a d1 athlete we need that it was like while i was in college and then i would i'd be so pissed that i had to do it that i would just get fucking blasted the night before and then roll up like wildly i'd walk across the finish line oh yeah just so just disrespecting the event like that yeah meanwhile they're like people in their mid-40s who are like i do i got a divorce because i neglected my relationship getting ready for this midlife crisis marathon yeah my dad's like in the mud pit like going

under the barbed wire like you know and um wait so when was the last time you did one i was like early 20s and the shit was hard like i mean whenever i see the things i'm like bro i don't want to fucking do it no i'm just like i'm just like why am i why am i climbing a rope as an adult that's just what i remember like going through my mind sharilyn what is something from your search history that's revealing about who you are what you're into or what you're searching or what you're kind of checking out okay let's see look i have two things so recently i found out this is weird i'm sorry ahead of time i i recently found out about the 9-11 bar have you heard of it yes the 9-11 yes i think i learned about that through

robert heavens no a bar bar 9-11 where in, you grab your drinks, you look at the wall, you remember and you never forget. Wait, it's like a memorial bar? Where is it? So I found out that there's two. There are two 9-11 bars. One is in Fort Worth, Texas and one is in Buffalo. Apparently the one in Fort Worth, Texas is like the main one. And I don't know. I just found out about these bars.

But Buffalo had to get in on it? That is a wild franchise to get in on. Okay. Maybe someone, I don't know if it's a franchise. Maybe it's like their own separate bar. It's probably got a different name. Like the one in Texas is Bar 9-11. I don't know why they have to make it sound like ooh. Well, it's probably got a different name like the one in texas is bar 9-11 i don't know why they

have to make it sound like oh well it's also spelled like in a really flippant way it's like b-a-r the number nine and then the word 11 like all is one like a 7-11 yeah but like from the outside you'd be like oh okay like the font is maybe chic and then you go and you're like what the fuck is going on in here yeah and then you go inside and it's look i don't know if they have what their cocktail i hope that they're not themed i don't even want to go into it because my brain already is like coming up with names but it's got art like this on the wall where it's like okay 8 46 a.m and then like a long paragraph of what was going on, 849, 852.

So I was just looking into that. But for some reason, when I clicked on the link to the bar, it was like not letting me go in. And I was like, this is probably for the best. I remember I saw this comedy show like years ago where Brett Gelman was doing this bit where he said he wanted to open a 9-11 bar but like every night a siren would go off and like a bunch of tracks would play and you would just relive the

moment where they announced that bin laden had been killed and that was like the energy of the bar it's like yo they got bin laden and people like oh and that was like but that was a bit and so when you started saying this i'm like is, is this the Brett Gelman thing come to life? But no, this is real. It could be a Nathan for you thing, but it's not. I mean, it's been around for like years, right? Like, yeah. Don't give this guy any ideas with up in Lawton.

Yeah. They said his whole thing was that he supposedly, quote, found 80% of Americans didn't know that the anniversary of the event was approaching. So that's why I wanted to make sure people remembered. I mean, this is beside the point, but I don't believe that. I also don't believe that. I mean, it seems like a thing, like an old Jay Leno, like man on the street bit, where like, when's the anniversary of 9-11?

And people are like, February? Like, you know, like if that's what he's trying to say, I mean, we, we know what day it is. So what's the number for nine one one, right? September 11th.

Huh? Yeah. Well, good for them. And I, I hope the people whose lives were lost, uh, don't feel that this is a flippant homage to their lives.

Or, or sue this guy's ass. Why not? Yeah. Sue him. Yeah. Hell yeah. This is America. Sue him. Fuck. Yeah. homage to their lives or or sue this guy's ass why not yeah sue him yeah hell yeah this is america sue him fuck yeah there we go uh what's your other thing you were searching sharilyn uh the other thing so over quarantine i started watching the l word like the original l word and i don't know if either of you guys have seen it but it's so bad and i think that that's why it's really i mean it's i've never seen it okay it's bad so bad that like it's aged well because you can like kind of hate watch it

and like fall in love with the characters but the theme song is um is okay there's this one part of the theme song if you know you know but they just start saying a bunch of words that that lesbians do and uh it goes talking laughing loving breathing fighting fucking crying drinking writing winning losing cheating kissing thinking dreaming and uh i was trying to memorize that because now i sing the theme song every time at the beginning and i'm like talking drinking fighting kissing i like that they're characterizing it as something that just lesbians do things like talking writing dreaming kissing thinking dreaming so it's pretty sexy and then yeah

this is the way this is the way that we live and love. And it's ridiculous. Anyways, I got to work on that. I got to work on memorizing those lyrics. Yeah, if you're going to say it without looking at you, because I saw you look at your phone. I mean, the day you don't look, we're going to all be like, she's done it, folks. She's done it. I'm going to stand. Yeah.

I'll let you guys know. I'll post like a video of me singing it. Hey, drinks on me at bar 9-11 the day you get those lyrics awesome thank you you're welcome see you in buffalo oh shit oh the buff we're not even going to the fort worth one we're going to the buffalo one no we're going straight to buffalo i'll go to the buffalo and just so i can see you know west side gun and i feel like the buffalo one would be a little safer for me and maybe for you too miles yeah in general yeah who knows uh and but maybe i'll go in with all my regalia on and they'll be like hey he's one of the good ones man

yeah you know one of the good ones you know he's one of the good ones man he came in with his his his shirts had never forget man i can put on an accent too we'll be hell yeah oh yeah i remember when i covered a trump rally very early on i was oh, this is gonna be rough because I got to like ask people shit and kind of like. Time to code switch. Yo, code switch. And I put a red hat on and shit. And they were like, oh, you. It was amazing how instantly I was like, well, we'll see how they do with this man of color. And I was like, hey, the second you go, hey, what do you think people are getting wrong about donald trump they're like the thing is and you're like wow i'm am i in the cia am i this good but it turns out i just needed to say trump is cool and then instantly everyone's like yes we love it let's uh move on to something that you think is overrated theresa what would

that be i okay this is new for me so this is old zai gang who have heard me talk about things this is a new theresa i think having a high credit score is overrated i don't mean like in the way that like i know credit cards suck and that is true but i mean like i had a high credit score and i was thinking that this was like a pillar of my personality and if i just do this my life will be okay and then I realized that um that it's all a scam but not only that but I just got a credit because I just directed a short film but I haven't raised the money for it yet but to do this I took a credit card out with zero percent APR for 15 months and I spent the money before I still don't have the money but I spent it and I realized like I directed a short and then I'm like whatever happens like maybe I'll end't have the money, but I spent it. And I realized like I directed a short

and then I'm like, whatever happens, like maybe I'll end up on the street, but more than likely I'll figure it out. I still don't know what's going to happen, but the reality is I did the directing part already. So I realized like, okay, like worst case scenario, I blow up my credit score and I finish a short. Best case scenario, I crowdfund or figure it out

and pay it off. But in no way would I have done this if I was waiting to make the money. So I just realized, like, it's all a scam. Like, just the more the bank owns you, the more they want to keep you alive. And now I feel like they own me and they want me alive. So they're not going to kill me, you know? Yeah, they'll let the other industries do that for them on their behalf. They're like, oh, well, it's a shame that you couldn't afford to live but yeah i i definitely at one point i remember i used to

i dated somebody who like credit score shamed me and like i kind of took it personally at the time because it's a very privileged thing to do i remember i was trying to get a tv and they're like hey like you want to finance it i'm like what's that and they're like well maybe you can just do payments i'm like okay and they're like oh you don't have any credit sir i'm like oh because i don't have i was like that means you have no debt i mean the only reason i started with a high credit score my extremely high student loans and this whole time i was like i'm so responsible but like no it's because you were a dumb idiot at 17 years old and you signed your life away yeah now i'm like oh i'm about to pay my mazda off you know that credit

score about to be jumping and then i will call that x i'll be like you should look at it now it's 620 it's not good still anyway that's how shit is sometimes ever what's something that you think is underrated now this might it might seem like it's already overrated. Underrated, a high quality scented candle. Oh, Ever, speak my language. Somebody was like, you're spending how much on a scented candle? I'm like, no, you don't get it. You don't.

This is my cave. My cave smells good though. Yeah. And that's a reflection on me and my emotional state. It feels good. What's up, my little I-hearts? What scents are we getting into? And what brands?

Because people are being brandies when it comes to their big candles. Well, I will say, okay, first of all, too, but I've been really getting into Copal, but I'm trying. There is a Copal shortage, but Copal I also use for spiritual reasons and whatever, whatever. I got you. I feel you. I feel you. It's on my altar as well. But paddy wax, big fan of paddy wax right now.

I have not tried. They have a parks candle. Ooh. And you buy this and they donate to national parks, but then they have like, they have like masculine scents, which I really like, you know. Yes, like your leathers and your bourbons. For the listeners out here, I'm pretty butchy looking. But I also have been really getting into willow and cotton and like a lavender scent, surprisingly.

I just got a French lavender candle that is to die for. How do y'all use your candles? Are they burning all the time? Are they contextual candles? Do you do it most of the day so it helps scent your home? What's your strategy with the candle? I'm going to let you go first because I really want to hear how you do it. Okay, okay.

So usually it's like when I need a pick-me-up, right? So up the street for me is this great little shop i'm not giving out the name i should promote it but if more people go there i'll be upset it's like beautiful and they make all different kinds of spiritual candles some have glitter in them some like have that um wood wick so it's like creating a house of intuition and it's like wait wait a little shop no it's it's locally. And it's like, wait, wait, wait. It's a little shop. It's locally owned and it's perfect. And like, it literally just, my whole house was just warm.

Stop it. Just warm and delicious. And so like, just cozy. And that's what I really love about it. But then, you know, sometimes you're like, I feel like a really light, fresh air scent. But sometimes you need, like I have, I really light, fresh air scent, but sometimes you need, like I have, I also buy D&D candles,

which I love. So they're made to scent for different scenes you're playing during D&D. Oh, that's cool. Dude, I have one that's a tavern and it smells like red wine and leather. Wait, this,

her majesty, my partners, her friend opened a candle store, like in LA, that's like sort of based on art like role-playing games is it the same one cantrip candles i think so yes i love them

you guys can shop online for cantrip candles so i don't mind shouting them out they are brilliant their candles smell amazing there's one that smells like parchment paper if you're like in a library or a monastery or something. But then at the end of the candle, when you're done burning it, there's a fresh D20 in there at the bottom just waiting for you to add to your dice collection, which is already too large. And I just love that they're indulging in a different, like, hobby slash collection thing. Like, there shouldn't be dice at the bottom of candles, but it's there and it's wonderful. Yeah. It's so funny. The guy, Kristoff, is a classmate of her majesty like the who runs who owns that place

and i remember he looked at some of the accounts and what the look at this this is fucking tight for me i like to have in the winter that's when i get up the candles go off around me because it has to like i said it has to smell like uh just a like a hallmark fucking movie in the house. The winter, the fall, it's game over. Yeah. It's game over. It's candle season, baby. I don't do candles in the summer, really. Oh, get a floral candle for the summer.

Oh, okay. Get a floral candle. Get something light. These are the kinds of things that we need to know about. And the listeners, the iHearts, if you will, or the Zyke gang, however you identify, these are tips for you to take home. All right, let's pay some bills real quick, and we will be right back after this. 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. The story of one strange and violent summer. This is Rip Current, available now with new episodes every Thursday. Listen on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Daphne Caruana Galizia was a Maltese investigative journalist who, on October 16, 2017, was murdered. There are crooks everywhere you look now. The situation is desperate.

My name is Manuel Delia. I am one of the hosts of Crooks Everywhere, a podcast that unhurts the plot to murder a one-woman Wikileaks. Daphne exposed the culture of crime and corruption that were turning her beloved country into a mafia state. And she paid the ultimate price.

Listen to Crooks Everywhere starting September 25th on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. 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 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. Listen to Dream Sequence on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Señora Sex Ed is not your mommy sex talk. This show is la plática like you've never heard it before. We're breaking the stigma and silence around sex and sexuality in Latinx communities. This podcast is an intergenerational conversation between Latinas from Gen X to Gen Z. We're covering everything from body image to representation in film and television. We even interview iconic Latinas like Puerto Rican actress Ana Ortiz.

I felt in control of my own physical body and my own self. I was on birth control. I had sort of had my first sexual experience. If you're in your señora era or know someone who is, then this is the show for you. We're your hosts, Diosa and Mala, and you might recognize us from our flagship podcast, Locatora Radio. We're so excited for you to hear our

brand new podcast, Señora Sex Ed. Listen to Señora Sex Ed on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. And we're back. Again, we got to look at what's going on in the country. And what's going on in the country is the Delta variant of COVID.

This has not stopped. Florida is currently home to about one-fifth of all COVID cases in the country. And they have like less than, I think, 8% of the population. I think it's something closer to like seven or six. And if you look at what Governor Ron DeSantis is doing, it almost looks like he thinks he can end the pandemic by making the numbers go up so high that like, like he just breaks the charts or something like that. Doctors are also saying the worst cases they see are no longer people's people in their 70s and 80s. It's gotten a lot younger now. It's people from their 40s to their 60s and even younger than that.

He's preventing businesses from requiring proof of vaccination and even preventing schools from having students wear masks. And it's a similar situation in a lot of red states where like local authorities, for whatever reason, think it's some kind of statement of pure freedom to embrace premature preventable death. But they continue down this path. And vaccinations have gone slightly up over the last month because I think some of the news is connecting with people that if you're not vaccinated, this Delta variant is highly transmissible and will probably you could be infected much at a much higher rate than the previous variant or the ancestral strain and the other thing is young people are really really not fucking with getting vaccinations like the vaccination rates are really low so the white house has had to now switch their

tactics and they have basically recruited an army of influencers from TikTok to fucking whatever the kids are using, Instagram and the space book and all that to get kids to, you know, get more into vaccinations. We saw it with Olivia Rodrigo, basically less than half of people 18 to 39 are fully vaccinated. Then compare that with over two-thirds for people over 50 and then really about 58 percent of people 12 to 17 have yet to receive a shot at all now i get i know that it gets a little bit more complicated when you're a minor because your parents are the ones who are probably going to dictate what happens but they've truly just been like we just need these influencers now that's the one way i way I think we got to make it cool for kids. You know, I very rarely pine for days of the past.

You know what I'm saying? Very rarely. The past wasn't too good for black folks, you know. So I look forward to the future more times than not. But there's one thing that I do miss about the past, and that's when we used to buy and sell states. You know, it feels like we've passed that era in our young country. And I'm interested in getting back to that because Mexico,

y'all want Florida? It literally makes me feel daunting in a way that I don't see how this is going to change. When the vaccines came out, even last year, our whole mindset was we'll wait for the vaccines. Things will get better, blah, blah, blah. And now more than ever, I'm just like, what the fuck are we going to do? Ain't shit going to get better? Ain't shit going to get better yeah ain't shit gonna get better especially when you have people who are on a mission to act like it's all good but then we

talked about this last week or maybe yesterday's episode how the signals are all mixed depending on what state you're in you might have a governor who's a republican who'd be like hey y'all need to get vaccinated like i'm not fucking around like arkansas can't handle it please but then you'll have places like texas or florida where they're like it's all good like we're not making to make anybody do anything it's freedom while also saying vaccinations save lives and the my biggest fear in all of it is like because of the transmissibility of the delta variant and a lot of these epidemiologists are like the way of a breakthrough truly breakthrough version of covid comes up one that is resistant even to vaccines is by having a large group of people being vaccinated in an

environment where there's transmission rates are still very high and then my you know sort of doomsday thinking ass like my god like i don't want to have to worry about my parents again if there's like another version where they're like that vaccine you got it doesn't work because we let the you know part of the country just be a petri dish accelerator for you know evolving this virus those are all the things i worry about and yeah like you're hard pressed to think what happens and i think i think the first thing is that they're just hoping that mandating vaccines will help make things normal and be like well there's a lot of shit i can't do unless i'm vaccinated maybe i will but it's still it's tough all these people grew up in the era like a lot of these people that are you know propagating the anti-vax as a political stance for freedom like you guys were all taking the

fucking polio vaccine you were taking all the other vaccines. You were very pro-vaccine until now, which is just a symptom of like political division versus actually a scientific necessity. Yeah. I mean, it's just like this weird thing about how people flip their stances on things because of political ideologies like i know all these people that got vaxxed when they were younger with all the other shit you know they just decided now

that they're not you know yeah and i think yeah because of how quickly the country has sort of like fractured into like these sort of ideologies without any real consideration for like even personal stakes because now even there is a prominent uh republican politician i believe i forget which southeast state it was but started up very anti-vax then got covid and it like revealed that this guy was going through a months-long covid battle he's like i can't like this thing is bad y'all this is bad if you have a really bad case it is going to feel like you're on death's doorstep and this is i implore you and it's and it's funny because it's so much like how our country operates which is fuck around and find out essentially like we always have to

get to the find out phase some people don't want to fuck around because they will take the experimentation and the know-how of experts and say, I don't need to find out about that, and I'm not going to fuck around. But unfortunately, there are a lot of people who are now like, I found out, and it's terrible. I just don't understand, too. Like, I get on a base level what it's about. We are, everything is politicized right now, right? And, you know, like, I'm only 34, so I can't, I don't know what it was like.

And I fell asleep during most history classes, so I don't know what it was like politically when polio was around. And all these other vaccines, it felt like people were getting it. There were smaller anti-vaxxers, but like there was just wasn't, the information wasn't able to move as quickly, so it was minimal. That's the problem, unfortunately. You brought up the White House is bringing in influencers and things like that to try and get younger people vaccinated and i fear that unfortunately and this isn't a compliment but unfortunately we're too smart for that uh and like i don't mean that in a compliment i mean that and like i think i know what you're doing that ain't gonna work i know what you're doing just because kendall jenner say come get your vaccine she's been saying that for months it ain't gonna

change something for me now you know it's like everybody knows everything now yeah everybody knows everything now so like we can see we can see through the facades and we can you know look if it reaches one person that's better than reaching no people so i i get that 100 but yeah i get it you're cynical i think a lot of people are and i'm cynical sorry well i've been seeing a lot of those stories and i do think they're helpful as sad as they are and i'm not someone where it's like i didn't get the vaccine and i wish i did and it's like a picture of them on their deathbed before they died you know like i keep seeing posts like that and um or like republican didn't get vaccine and it's almost and like people are like oh fuck those people they're so selfish and a vaccine. And it's almost and like people are like, oh, fuck those people.

They're so selfish. And I'm like, no, it's still sad that someone was under the impression that it was more important for them to like make some political sense in their own life. Mm hmm. You know, like it's still I'm i i don't everyone's like celebrating those people it's like sick people it's yeah it's yeah like at the end of the day it's infinitely tragic for someone to lose their life when their their death could have been prevented yeah and i think when you see people who are like ha ha like you know you you're now you're getting it bad because you were being you know a science denier or whatever.

We completely lose track of like the humanity of it all. And that's only exacerbating any kind of division, because if you can't even look at someone like that and say that this this poor person just got duped so bad that they decided to act against their own self-interest and put themselves at risk and then are leaving a family behind because unfortunately that's just because that's what's on the tv around them or whatever their subculture that they're part of is sort of communicating this to them and that's like yeah i mean like dying a painful death too right and it's not it's a painful death luckily the the worst you know thing i got swept up in was thinking that g unit was gonna last forever and 50 cent and and lloyd banks and tony ayo were gonna be around forever like that g unit g unit broke up yeah i mean that was like kind of you know like we all have these little things

that we get carried away with. Now, like the stakes are getting so high, like where people are now like, oh, now my ideology isn't like I like this band or whatever. It's like I'm going to completely just say that this group of people is not human. And that's sort of the momentum that I think we'd we'd hope to blunt on some level by, you know, like in general, we're just doing a terrible job of acknowledging like the humanity of people in this country. I don't think I don't think I could ever be the president. One, because I've done too much shit in my life. So I don't think although now, you know, Trump could be president.

I can definitely be president. I mean, if Blair's doing gargoyles on kegs, dude. Yeah, we can. Here's Madam President. Actually, Blair, can I be your vice president? I don't need to be the president. I would never want to be president. Are you kidding me?

I'm sort of like I like to just like look in the back. I'm not trying to be the decision maker. Because if I was if I was a decision maker, like this is I would be what I wouldn't want a president to be where I would be like, you know what? I'm the president. We about to change some shit up. All right. Oh, I can't mandate vaccines. Well, here's what I can do.

Every five minutes on every piece of screen you have TV, phone, tablet. I'm going to show you a five minute death of somebody dying by COVID. So you can see it. Like how they have it on like cigarettes in Europe where they're like, this is a lung from smoking. Then you're see it. Like how they have it on cigarettes in Europe where they're like, this is a lung from smoking. And you're like, oh shit. Jaquese, having only known you for 39 minutes, I do believe

that you could become president. I think you're that captivating of a speaker. It's actually alarming when you meet someone like that. You're like, this is how entire nations get slept up. You know what? i'm coming for a nation near you everybody yeah um and you know alongside that you know again like with this inability to just be like we need to look at just in generally like the humanity of people not to say like oh they're right for having the beliefs

they had but i'm not gonna i'm not gonna celebrate the death of somebody because of they were they fell victim to misinformation and their own that's what i've been saying it's sad as hell like i i hate that in general with our country just in all aspects it's like you it's just celebrating the death it's like become just two sides and then just always celebrating and it's like they are. Yeah, that could have been you. That damn well could have been you. You just were born in a different place. Depending on where you were raised, literally. It's really hard to celebrate death

when one thing has killed over 600,000 people in a shorter amount of time it took for an Avengers movie to be made. It's really hard to celebrate death of anyone. I mean, it's hard to celebrate death in general, but this is... It's hard, and I've tried. Trust me. And I've tried. I've tried.

Trust me, I've tried. It's hard to celebrate. It's hard to... We're numb to it right now, man. We're numb to it. And I just want people to stop dying. I don't care to it exactly and i just want people to stop dying i don't care who it is i would love people to stop fucking dying well yeah because the other thing is like the trauma that reverberates from one person's death that's something we're probably not going to be able to measure for some time yeah um and also like don't care if i'm a liberal

shit no definitely not yeah so i gotta sit here and still listen to the story of how painful your death is. And it's not going to be like, well, yeah, I voted for Bernie. I'm good. No, don't still come kick my ass, too, if it decides to. It's scary, man. OK, well, I want to move on since we were sort of on the topic of new york before we got into the ideas of salvation in christ uh to someone else who's actually very interested in the ideas of salvation in christ is rudy giuliani um because he's been a very bad man if you i mean look he hitched his wagon to the most radioactive star in donald trump and for a moment he was riding high like you could tell he was like, I'm that guy. I'm with the president. I'm gooned up. What are you going to do? Fuck that. Fuck laws. And then,

you know, he was even jacking his bone in a Borat movie. I mean, he was, he thought he was at the top of the world. And then Trump was no longer president and all the shit that he did, like push Ukraine to like smear Biden and get involved in the political, the presidential race or, you know, try to get the election overturned by pushing the big lie, which got him sued by Dominion voting systems. It's all now become like one gigantic legal tidal wave and it's about to crush him. The thing is, when you have all this legal exposure, there's a lot of bills that you got to pay for lawyers and things like that and no one has been a giving any money to his little go fund me for like like help me defend myself against the crack smoking demons leftist sort of like campaign that he had and he's been telling close friends like he is close to going like fully broke now i don't know how

accurate that is because this is the same guy that quit a job to try and make it look like his income was diminished so he would owe less in spousal support so you know we'll take that for what it's worth but on top of all that trump has been sitting on 82 million dollars that he just straight grifted off of supporters um and just been spending on himself and a lot of the trump ally people are like um what about like helping the dude who you who fucking quite literally was just fucking shit up to try and get you in office and it only just destabilize the country it's quiet oh okay miles You think that glam team is cheap? It's not, okay? That is a lot of work.

A lot of parties work very hard on his look, okay? Which way? Who's glam team? Trump? Trump, yeah. Doesn't he, like, but I feel like he's, like, one of those guys who hates being, like, touched. So he would, like, do it all himself. Like, because, you know he the application looks i mean

like the way he puts it on his eyes and stuff you know he's not really blending or do we think there's a hmu team there or it's all self-applicated look my guess is it's not self-applicated okay i like that look king rule number one someone else puts your bronzer on before you make a speech that's for sure i do like the idea of a team coming in wearing hazmat suits to come to his hair keeping it safe yeah i feel bad for rudy because he you know he did all that jewelry work as you said now he's not getting support from trump and like listen i was with trump for the whole thing and now to find out he's a bad friend come on like that's the last straw you can't treat your friends like that

i just thought it was a coincidence every other time people are like i went in business with him and he stole from me or i worked for him and he never paid me it's not like there's a trail of evidence yeah um also the giuliani scene in bora i am not over that also and another thing i can't believe in this country is how much shit is literally video evidence that nothing ever transpires from i mean like can you imagine what is happening like that was with a film crew. Like what would happen? What goes on in non-media sanctioned interviews? A lot. I mean, you look at the state of everything, like whether it's, you know, sexual assault or racism and things like that.

It's like you truly it's like, well, do you have 4K video at 60 frames per second? It doesn't matter. That we can look at. And even then, half the time, it doesn't't matter this is wide release to the entire country no problem it's just still yeah it's free it wasn't even behind the paywall this is evidence uh but yeah so mayor giuliani former mayor giuliani he's also been kind of in the news because obviously this is going to be the 20th anniversary of sept September 11th. And he was mayor at the time and he was at ground zero and he was talking with local news to be like, hey, you know, what a moment for you and the country.

Like, let's reflect on that. He didn't talk about that at all. Let's hear what he instead chose to talk about when he was asked about the significance of the 20th anniversary of 9-11 oh christ i committed no crime and if you think i committed a crime you're probably really stupid because you don't know who i am former mayor rudy jones seems fixated on declaring his innocence we've seen you commit a crime on camera as an unregistered lobbyist for Ukrainian officials is the guy who put the mafia in jail terrorists in jail Ed Koch's commissioners in jail and the worst people on Wall Street I'm not gonna file I mean that's just crazy Giuliani says he was only working for

President Trump as his lawyer voicing frustration about the FBI searches of his home and law office. This is where it gets real good. Misguided and politically motivated. I mean, I'm more than willing to go to jail if they want to put me in jail. And if they do, they're going to suffer the consequences in heaven. I'm not. I didn't do anything wrong. Again, baby, send it back up to god

yeah maybe i'm on earth according to your earth realities a criminal i'm more than willing to go to jail okay great listen they're going to afterlife jail or hell as they sometimes call it exactly we'll see where we'll see where he ends up. But yeah, that seems to be on his mind, even though he's there to do an interview about one of the most significant events in the last 20 years. Dude, I'm willing to go to jail,

but heaven, they're going to have to take it up with heaven and the angels. That's the thing I'm saying, dude. I threw Ed Koch's commissioners in jail anyway. What a beautiful 9-11 memorial speech. Incredible. Okay, and before we go to another break i just want to bring up um spirit airlines because they had a bit of an issue earlier this week i don't know if you've flown and people have we i think we've all experienced

spirit airlines at one point oh you haven't okay it's wonderful you both have i think once i took either spirit or frontier every i think everyone should try at least once just to remind yourself why you should never do it people always like just crack jokes about it because it's like a budget airline blah blah blah but they've really been having a lot of operational problems um like a couple days ago they had to cancel 277 flights which was about 36 percent of its schedule and then 159 were delayed which is about 20% of its schedule. And then 159 were delayed, which is about 20% of its schedule. So overall 56% of their flights were fucked up. And some they would say is like,

it was weather, but it's also not weather too. Like there's also staffing issues and it looks like Spirit like kind of tried to ramp up their business really quick again without having the proper personnel to actually like facilitate having all these flights move around. So on top

of that, with all these flights delayed, because they're like a low cost carrier, they don't have any of these things that are like interline agreements like with other airlines, which is normally the thing that'll happen. So like if you have a delay or a cancellation, like there's a way to remedy that because it's like, oh, we have relationships with other airlines to sort of sort this out. So that's like the inherent risk with Spirit Airlines. So cut to many airports, especially around the Southeast,

like in Fort Lauderdale, Orlando, and then in San Juan, Puerto Rico, people were fucking stranded. And there was like sort of anecdotal information that the Spirit Airlines staff was like slowly retreating from like the like the tape, like the desks to help customers. And we're saying like we might need to like sneak out the back because like we have nothing to tell people. And like the situation is just getting really, really tense. So you can see a situation where

you have people who are like i can't make my connecting flight because you just canceled it what can i do this line's three and a half hours for me to even speak to someone at that point what flights are there and then on top of you have agents slowly like doing the homer simpson bush gif where they're like sorry i'm gonna back up into this bush now um and it just sucks because at the end of the day like as much as you, you know, you see how people get at airports. Like, it's always the ticket agents that are going to get all this shit when it's not like they're like, I don't run Spirit Airline. I'm working for them. It just looked all kinds of bad.

Well, I keep seeing these articles saying that, like, people just in general are getting way more unruly. saying that like people just in general are getting way more unruly and i've seen this a little bit at comedy shows too where it's like oh you guys have so much pent-up energy in you from being inside for a year and a half that like some of you forgot how to act in public and then they keep saying all of this like bubble inside people of stress is like bursting in public in ways that it wasn't really before in like certain especially in certain common spaces where there's like um social agreements that you don't act that way and now all these like these flight attendants are like guardians of the galaxy yeah and and this guy's like oh you didn't let me touch your tits i'm gonna fucking lose my you know my parents are worth two million dollars i saw that clip i was like what the fuck is this

guy saying and he got duct taped to the seat which is so hysterical by the way yeah it's just wild because there's stress everywhere you know like whether that's people that are traveling right you don't they could be spread thin financially and they're having to be on a flight where they don't even want to, you know, like maybe it's the travel they're doing is like stressful. They may have to go take care of somebody. And then like, you know, a lot of people have all kinds of stressors that is not just apparent on the surface. Like and I think the pandemic has really put a lot again like to your point a lot of pressure on people from all different kinds of sides and i think unfortunately in america we have this terrible habit because everyone says the customer is always right it's like in these

customer service interactions are like people just sort of take advantage of this idea to be like well i'm just gonna indulge my anger right now and just direct this person oh yeah this feels like the venue for that like every travel situation is stressful everyone's going through that and how that pent-up stress is bray was talking about um but like and if they interact with spirit airlines spirit airlines is like a like an american ninja warrior gauntlet of stress where like every single thing is designed to make you stressful so of course it's just going to be an explosion of of horrible behavior on both sides that makes me so mad when people lose it in public because it's like suppress that shit like the rest of us okay we're

mad we're on fucking spirit airlines um dramos just said the frontier suspended the flight attendant who duct taped that creep and and that person is suspended when that man was causing danger and injury to the employee who had no one to defend her from being sexually assaulted to be fair though she did violate the protocol the normal protocol is to get in a knife fight to the death on a frontier airline. That's how you have to establish your dominance. If you want to keep your flight attendant position, you need to somewhat, you know, defeat them in one-on-one combat.

If I were JetBlue, I'd be calling and hiring that guy because that's the type of shit we need in the planes now as everyone's losing their fucking mind. Or there's like some viral duct tape company that's like, hey, we'd love to give you the face of our duct tape right now, the hero. The flight attendant presentation beginning is like, here's the seatbelt thing, here's the life vest,

and here's the ball gag we'll use if you guys try to start fights with us. Oh, and that's the nice one we have another one that's a wooden dowel with a bunch of dried blood on it with a bunch of chicken wire that we'll just wrap around the back of your head too there's that one too there's that one too you know every once in a while when you get like a really bitchy flight attendant who loves their five minutes up top and they have like all these jokes and like they really want you to know like you know i'm not bothered by you and i won't be and i i would love if like some flight attendants

start like working that shit in into their like speech up top a lot of comedians i i feel like hate when they hear flight attendants do jokes but i like it i like yeah because i'm like they're getting their time to shine right now and i feel like on southwest i feel like that was the one of the first airlines where people were like casual enough to like talk some shit like especially if you took that flight on southwest from like burbank to vegas like that was just joke fest absolutely a lot of jokers on there yeah a lot of jokers on that plane it should also teach some comedians some empathy because in every comedy show there's obviously one person who doesn't want to be there so like of course like this is what it feels like when you're uh sabotaging one person's night with

your jokes so we'll pay back well um comedy is a mental illness so yeah well well i'll ask more about that when we talk about this other story coming up after the break. So let's pay some bills real quick. We'll be right back after this. 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 this 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.

And, you know, speaking of TikTok and TikTok trends, you know, I'm up on all the trends, obviously. You're very young. You're very hip. I'm so young, y'all. I mean, it's like wild. I always get ID, you know, when i buy cigarettes and candy cigarettes and things like that i don't smoke cigarettes anyway i do keep my own tiktok and by that i mean i do look at all the headlines about tiktok and right now the thing that is really trending it sounds like the new tide pods is eating frozen honey in that it is a it's very similar because it's a challenge that's popular,

but has some shitty side effects. Just so you know, on NBC News, they just sort of looked into it. At the time of the writing of the article, there were 667 million views under the hashtag frozen honey hashtag, and 89.7 million views

for the hashtag frozen honey challenge tag. And every video is kind of the same thing someone shows off some honey and takes a huge bite and i just want to play just a video for everybody so you can understand what this looks like um because it's oh gosh i mean it looks like motherfuckers is eating a bunch of honey and i don't understand what the fucking appeal is so this video um is from at avery cyrus and the tag the caption under it is brb gotta go get my stomach pumped and i'm like what and this is her eating frozen honey this frozen honey thing apparently tells me super satisfying let's do it okay it's just

frozen honey and you have to squeeze it out oh that looks so cool it does look cool that is a big ass bite of honey but not appetizing oh my god it's like a pop as soon as you take a bite it starts melting oh it looks like she's eating so much sugar a lot of sugar it's so much sugar right you're like you're looking at that you're like what the fuck are y'all doing that is just a bunch of this is a big hunk of fucking honey you're just eating there's nothing interesting about this except you're just eating a bunch of sugar in a different form now this is where we did like grow up when literally extra large soda like things were sold

on the schoolyard oh of course but like but but we were but that wasn't presented to us in the form of a challenge that was just like the insidiousness of our like yeah food food culture was like yeah man kids need 64 ounces of high fructose corn syrup what the fuck you talking about gyms you know buy them at the student store yeah eat this uh raven's revenge which was basically just sugar in a fucking test tube that was colored. And you're like, oh, it's a cool flavor. You're like, dude, you're just eating just a thing of sugar right now. But yes, it all comes.

Look, this all comes in cycles. But the difference here is that, like you all said, that's a lot of sugar. And a lot of people, many health experts are saying like, you know, small amounts of honey, not a health concern. Eating a fifth or more of a bottle of honey at a time can be a sugar overload. A registered dietitian who just like interviewed for this article said, quote, honey is great, but having it in small amounts to sweeten is really a healthy relationship with food. And using it to get a lot of followers and a lot of attention and having it in excess amounts is crazy. Not the best choice of words there. But then she says about, they go on to say,

one in three people has dietary fructose intolerance. So that's called, I guess called fructose malabsorption, which means the cells in the intestines don't absorb fructose the way they should, causing gastrointestinal distress, meaning cramps, meaning diarrhea, meaning all kinds of toilet stuff that you don't want and on top of that maybe even pulling out some fillings and things because a lot of these people would do it and afterwards be like don't do it man like i just pooped for like seven days straight like i and clearly these people are probably falling in the category of the fructose

malabsorption yeah um but they like some people are just it's like doing colors where they're like oh this one's purple it's like you just put purple food dye in honey that's not anything sugar and then you ate it and then you and then you shat a bunch poor bees i mean the bees are still endangered right yeah yeah and here we are just eating chomping on their gobs of honey i mean i don't know what how it relates to the other but i know they don't want to see that i don't know that's what how they want to see their work just be absolutely disrespected i mean i've seen b movie and i can safely say that no that is not what the bees want we used to okay here if any gen z kids want to eat something frozen and this is what this is gonna make me sound so old but we used to freeze grapes and then

there's a delicious frozen treat. Delicious. Get a little bunch of green grapes. Pop them in the freezer. That's what we used to do. Ooh, a nice little frozen. The texture is so yummy. You can sprinkle a little sugar on it if you want.

But just the grape itself, beautiful texture. Chomp, chomp, chomp. If you freeze a banana, blend it with some peanut butter and chocolate. Bam, you've got some vegan uh ice cream yeah yummy look at us see children you don't have to have diarrhea on tiktok for followers that's what are we doing kids we don't need to do all that yeah a lot of people were just kind of again everyone was like this is really bad it's it's messing up my body and what are we gonna do but they say like a lot of experts are just warning like please think about this you

don't want to just like have a huge risk with your just sort of short-sightedness of wanting to get a lot of followers they just think like this is not going to be good for people with health conditions and they might discover very quickly that that could happen that being said that something like that would make me want to do it more if i was a kid like someone going don't do this for the followers like i'd be like well fuck you like it's like getting on the roller coaster you're not my dad i'm like how many followers you got you're like oh maybe 98 yeah exactly you talking like somebody with 98 followers shit i'm trying to get to 40k motherfucker you kidding me yeah and like I'll be real

when I see that it is appealing like I wonder what that's like is cause you know it's gooey and it's frozen but I'm also as I get older I know what a lot of sugar does to me too and then part of me like oh that's where my reality has come into focus where I'm like

I like it but I'm actually old enough now and have fucked with my body around enough to know that I shouldn't do that. But please let us know how it tastes. Maybe the way we can stop these trends is if all of us uncool. And I'm not like, you know what, you guys are cool. I'm just saying like, you know, Gen Z doesn't think we're cool. If we all suddenly were like, oh, yeah, let's hop on this trend this trend like boom and then it's like all these like older millennials doing it they would immediately like oh this isn't cool anymore it's like the side part that's how we stop them and we fake it we have to sacrifice ourselves yeah exactly we're like cheeky body cleanse eat the frozen honey and

then you clear your intestines out it's so healthy y'all like i feel like i'm glowing i'm adulting by getting frozen honey and just diarrhea y'all with my red wine and harry potter posters are you for real right now hashtag avocado toast um yeah it maybe that is the key i feel like we it's like when my mom started calling sandals thongs and then i was like oh don't do that but that's like what they used to call them yeah the thong song came out she'd be like oh you guys wearing thongs to the pool like you're like no wait what are you talking about i wonder yeah if we have to undertake a generational experiment and say like the next big gen z thing we try and just make it so just make it untenable for the youth where they're like these fucking people took the one good thing like on fleek it's gonna destroy people did the arm fleek

it's gonna destroy the entire millennial generation because we're not going i mean like the hell i mean these kids are young and they're still like shitting themselves like our 35 like our like mid-30s bodies will just like collapse instantly gone honestly i can't think of a better way for our entire generation to just disappear by like right trying to do something good and totally doing it the wrong way like it is very much the millennial way god yeah so i don't know the tiktok trends they're truly out there um one other thing i just wanted to point out is the succulent trade in south africa apparently there's a black market for succulents that is a popping off i was reading this article in the new york times where obviously we're all in california succulents are like

currency you know people love succulents and also there's like aifornia succulents are like currency you know people love succulents and also there's like a boom with succulents because like for a lot of people it's like i can't keep a normal plant alive but a succulent i can give just about the amount of water i'm i'm sort of have the wherewithal to do and i can keep it alive and i feel good about myself and then uh the pandemic only made like indoor plants and like the maintenance, like low maintenance plants, like super popular. But underneath that all was like a bubbling exotic succulent market that was like super illegal. Right now, like the hashtag for a succulent has like over 12 million images out there. But South Africa is very interesting because it's home to about a third of the world's succulent species.

So like it's a popping off. Like if you were into the succulents, you need to check out South Africa. And there's one very popular species called the Conophytum. And it's become so fucking big that it's caused like international illegal trade. like international illegal trade and before uh the pandemic they said like a lot of people who would get caught like sort of stealing or smuggling uh succulents out of south africa they said were primarily chinese and korean passport holders because the the fees they could get for these plants were like astronomical but since the pandemic has forced restrictions on travel these foreign buyers have been hiring like locals to do all the poaching.

And like they give these people like GPS coordinates and they're like, OK, go there. They're growing here. Here's what you need to do. Send them back like this. And this shift has like brought like conservation authorities in the country into all out battle with all these young unemployed people who are like incentivized to grab these plants to essentially find, you know, it's like one of their few financial recourses that are available to them. And the surge in poaching is like gotten to the point where like when authorities confiscate these illegal plants, they give them to like local greenhouses and nurseries to be like, hopefully you can replant these and things like that but they're like we have so many if we replanted them we would just inundate an entire area with one species of succulent and that'll fuck up all the biodiversity so like we're receiving

plants at a rate that we can't even fucking replant and it's only speeding up anyway i don't know i just want to i just want to bring that up because i didn't realize it was that big the thing that happens is the internet just allows people to just see like pretty succulents and what it's called and half the time like you'll see shit on amazon this is from this article in the new york times uh that said quote a recent study by the convention of international trade and endangered species basically they combat illegal wildlife trade they found some 365 endangered medicinal plants being sold openly on amazon and ebay so like whoa the thing is too we have like this weird blind spot where people just go oh they're plants cool plants aren't illegal they're plants like it's not drugs

and with unwittingly are like actually contributing to like this illegal succulent trade drugs are made almost everything is that's like um the the internet popularity of certain things and the speed of which it spreads has been like i've heard that for products too like it'll just be like random things like oh this one lip gloss and some influencers like i love this and then the entire target will be sold out of it everywhere. Right. I think, yeah, we're definitely not. There's like almost two models of advertising happening right now. There's like the old way. And then there's like this really rapid spread way now that we can't handle.

Consumers can't handle it. Yeah. We're very on the internet people. And I get it. Like if you start looking through a gallery of like people's landscaping or whatever and it's like oh those are beautiful because there are people who are like buying them in the thousands oh gosh and like

and they'll find them in like little plantlings and like they get confiscated in the mail and things like that but succulents man. Is this an instance that might speed up that might be bullish for 3D printing because I feel like if we're just going after trendy appearances this could be a huge win for 3d printing because imagine if you're like i like

how that looks on tiktok i don't know what it is print yeah here here yeah the 3d modeling company can quickly create a pattern for something that viral you just print it out i mean maybe that is that that could be where we're headed and then uh then we could all have very exotic plants i would actually print out like a full uh tyrannosaurus rex skeleton that would be sick just to have that here because like i don't care if it's real but like just for the the majesty of everyone on your street did that though and then they i would get so mad i would be like are you three oh hold on rick are you also 3d printing a fucking t-rex god damn it i have my shit looking so good and you know and look caitlin and i we we know we have a love for jurassic park so obviously it's good you do as
