What is going on with your legs that they need washing?
It's your body.
You wash your body, Chelsea, your entire body.
You don't pick and choose.
I have hot spots.
There's harassment coming from one of us to the other person. You to me.
Yeah, usually.
That's true.
I'm not going to lie.
And you take the abuse very well.
You almost seem to enjoy it.

Hello, the internet, and welcome to this episode
of the weekly Zeitgeist.
These are some of our favorite segments from this week,
all edited together into one non-stop infotainment,
laugh, stravaganza.
So without further ado,
here is The Weekly Zeitgeist.
Well, Miles, it know, substitute teacher day.
Yeah.
It's, you know, teachers out because teacher doesn't know what the fuck to talk about.
No big news that we can speak of that is going to be relevant in 24 hours.
We are rolling in the video card.
Yeah.
And we've got, I think, rated best substitute teacher that I could fucking imagine in my imagination.
Yeah.
Number one with a bullet.
It's a hilarious stand-up comedian, actor, musician.
You can listen to his podcast,
Cold Brew Got Me Like Anywhere.
His book, The Advice King Anthology is available now,
anywhere, fine books are sold.
Go get it for God's sake.
Please.
The poetry window is open because it's Chris motherfucking
I got an aka wrote it. I wrote it myself. It works every time hell. Yeah, bud late
You You genuinely got Crystal out of yourself. Oh my God. The elections have a terrible effect on Jack O'Brien.
Just straight up going, what's that?
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's the election that did that.
That's it. That's it.
It's like finally just, okay.
So yeah, here's my AKA.
Chris Crofton on parade. Da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da Finally just okay. So, uh, yeah, uh, here's my AKA
Chris Crofton fever.
Hell yeah.
And so that's why that's true.
That's why no matter what happens, they can't take away my 7.4 on pitchfork.
Hell no, they can't.
That's not on the ballot.
Can't no, it isn't.
That's not up for debate.
You see that one pitchfork article where they went back and rejiggered reviews.
And were like, actually this album that we gave a nine to,
we're going to move it down to a seven.
Yeah, turns out clap your hands and say, yeah, it wasn't actually a ten.
Yeah.
They did it to Big Boy from OutKast, which I think was actually probably...
His first album was
very good, but they were like, this is one of the best rap albums of all time.
That's one way to, that's one way to stop thinking about the election, revise
your reviews of heavy D and the boys or whatever.
Yeah.
We shouldn't, every day in the boys actually deserved a five point nine, not a point four.
Exactly. Exactly.
Are you trying to are you trying to are you trying to avoid thinking about the election?
Who me? No, the.
Bouncing.
What's that?
Oh, my God.
What a what a horrible, horrible time to be alive.
Yeah. So, yeah, today's like a bad day, you know, I mean, except like, um, some people aren't even thinking about it.
I think about that.
There's a lot of people who do not even care about this.
Don't give a shit.
One fucking bit.
Great.
I love that.
I love that.
Yeah.
We've been following these seven, I think it was seven undecided voters on the front page of the New York Times, of the New York Times.
Every time something big happened in the election,
they'd check in with these seven random people who were like,
I don't really know.
One of them was always leaning Trump,
and then they ended up voting for Harris.
Their explanation was like,
that just looked into it.
He was committing fraud during the last, like he was asking
people to like steal votes for him.
So like, I, they kind of won me over at the finish line with that feature
because it was like, oh yeah, like most people don't give a shit about this stuff
at all.
They're like, I pay attention to the election like once every four years
for like like you have
four days. Who's calling you, Chris?
Oh, my friend Parker.
Pick it up, Chris. Pick it up.
What's up, Parker?
Great answer the phone.
Yeah, give him away.
Anytime anybody calls us during this episode.
All right. We are.
Are we picking up scam likely's too? I don't know.
We just totally lost commitment on that one.
What is something from your search history that's revealing about who you are?
Yeah, beautiful search history stuff.
A lot of it's kind of boring.
This is what a...
I'm a little bit of a pretentious movie guy that I looked
up an experimental film called Dream of the Wild Horses recently that looks to be quite
amazing. Please don't judge me for my weird pretentious academia. No, that's not what
it's good. I'm supposed to be good. Yeah, it's supposed to be supposed to be beautiful.
I haven't watched it yet. I think it's on YouTube, but yeah, it's in swell.
This is thematically appropriate.
Every time I'm here, I talk about skateboarding.
It's influential in this like cult classic
masterpiece skateboard video called Spirit Quest.
Shout out Colin Reed.
Check out Spirit Quest if you get a chance.
It's fucking, it's a mindblower, baby.
Dream of the wild horses.
Does that mean that it's a dream about wild horses
or it shows you what wild horses are dreaming about?
I think like all deep, profound art,
it's up to the viewer's interpretation.
God damn.
So I'd love to see what they're dreaming about.
Wait, is that skate video for like a specific team?
No, it's an independent video out of New York,
probably like 10 years ago.
This guy's an independent filmmaker, so he'll have different people from different teams and stuff.
Okay, cool. Different than the other traditional way we're used to seeing skate videos.
Yeah, a collection of montage parts.
That sounds pretty cool, man.
That sounds like not election stuff.
Yeah.
Mike, check that out.
My brain is kind of coming around to that.
I like that.
Yeah.
We also like to ask our guests, what's something you think is underrated?
Well, honestly, in my heart, the first thing I wanted to say was drag.
Drag is art, which I don't know that it's underrated really because it's in pop culture
in such a significant way.
And yet I still think there's not enough respect for drag as an art.
So that's, that's honestly my answer.
Yeah.
Everyone should watch Paris is Burning, you know?
Yeah.
Everyone should watch Paris is Burning.
I also brought so many videos of like my favorite drag queen moments to share as
stuff that I will constantly reference in conversation
and be like, well, no one knows what I'm talking about, so I have to go show you this video
in order to get the context.
That's what most of your tabs are that are open.
Yeah.
I'm like, oh, let me reference this to you.
Yeah, honestly.
If you would please look at exhibit A, you'll understand the reference I just made in our
conversation.
I think a runner-up though for underrated is mini tongs.
Mini tongs.
Oh, yeah.
Mini kitchen tongs.
You don't need the long tongs.
Sometimes you just need the mini.
What do you use the mini tongs for? I'm curious.
Thank you for asking.
Yeah.
If you have just a potato,
a hash brown that you're cooking in your oven and you want to flip that thing. We're getting the size of like a McDonald's hash brown, right? That you're cooking in your oven
and you wanna flip that thing.
We're getting the size of like a McDonald's hash brown.
Yeah.
You just get the mini tong,
cause then you're not dealing with a whole spatula
in the oven, that's wild and loose, you know?
But a mini tong, yeah.
And then you can use it if you have a piece of toast
that it's like lodged in your toaster,
don't put your knife in there, please.
Don't put it in, yeah.
Don't put metal in there.
Well, those mini tongue little like plastic rubber.
Yeah.
Wait, you don't have, you don't have any mini tongs yet?
I'm trying to think of like how many we're going here.
Like, is it just the one that's just like a bent piece of plastic or does it have a hinge?
So there's your, I feel like your typical tongs are maybe like 11 inches, 12 inches long.
Yeah.
We're talking like.
Six. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I think, yeah, I think I know what you're talking about.
And they could be just a singular piece.
You think he's lying?
Look in his eyes, he knows.
Yeah, yeah. He's not bored.
Oh yeah, many, many tongs, yep.
He just has for three whiskies like this.
With my thumb?
Yeah. No, not with your thumb.
That's how you're supposed to do it.
That's how you know I'm not a
Hiding Glorious Bastards.
Yeah.
We have like multiple sides of tongs
and I have found myself using the ones
for the outdoor grill.
They're like super long,
like to avoid having your eyelashes
and eyebrows and stuff.
Smart.
Like around the kitchen because I, you know, I don't know where I left that thing.
You're like making eggs for your kids.
You're like, I want to do my tongs, dad.
You just stand, I'm going to need to move this piece of furniture to use this, but we're
going to...
I love that it's like your own grabber.
Yeah.
I can't get the plate, I'll just use the tongs. Yeah. Everything's with that.
If you had to like create a like thing that permanently became a tool that you could use on your body.
Like what tool would you use?
Wouldn't you like it?
You know, like incorporated as part of your physiology.
Yeah. Yeah.
Like, you know, a lighter for arm.
Lighter is a great answer.
Yeah, lighter is a really good answer.
Because you could, that's like, you can, you can help out and you can be like,
yo, I can burn this mother down.
If I brush up against a piece of furniture weird, bye.
Yeah, yeah.
Don't fuck with me.
That's what I was like, a knife is too crazy
because depending on where the appendage is,
that's like, you're hurting people,
you're ripping through stuff.
I would say, I mean, a tong would be great
because that's an extra arm, that's an extra appendage.
That is true, yeah.
And it's heat resistant too.
I think we all learned scissor hands are pretty inconvenient.
Although, if you get really good with those,
that could be cool.
Yeah, unless you wanna be a fierce hairstylist. Right. That would be a great if you get really good with those, that could be cool. Yeah, unless you want to be a fierce hairstylist.
Right.
That would be a great, you would blow up on TikTok.
You know, that would be a sick thing.
Oh my God, yeah, absolutely.
Any of the shit he did, like, whether it's like
hedge trimming or fucking hairstyles,
if you pulled up and you're like,
with your fucking scissor fingers,
people would be like, this is,
and this is the person I get my political takes from.
And I'm glad I'm on the right side of history.
Yeah.
What, Sophia, is something you think is overrated?
Underrated or overrated?
Overrated.
Overrated?
Your underrated was being nice.
I know, I know, being nice.
I have gonorrhea.
Thank you.
What was that? I don't know, I think Sophiaorrhea. Thank you. What was that?
I don't know, I think Sophia said something.
For the drop stream for every night.
This guy on the show is just like
trying to explain to his girlfriend
he's been cheating on her and he has gonorrhea
and he just says it like that.
But he also can't stop saying gonorrhea
to everybody and to her.
It's the most insane.
Then they take a beach trip.
I don't think gonorrhea going to spread on the beach.
You understand there's a collection of.
I think the pills is no leaking.
I think the pills is no leaking.
Yeah, because he's like being doing the patronizing thing to his Filipino
girlfriend where he's speaking like, oh, he's not.
Yes, he's a white guy.
And he's like, I think we take the beat.
We got a really no spread on the beach.
I take the pills.
There's no leaking about his God.
Yeah, I think the pills is no leaking.
No more sludge.
OK, did you find it?
The fuck?
It's just overrated is, you know, not telling people
that you have gonorrhea repeatedly.
No.
Out of context.
Oh.
If you watch 98 Beyonce, you will know what this is about
and then it'll be a little bit of a key joke for you.
I think we have to leave the whole break in.
Oh my God.
What the fuck?
Yeah.
Does that work?
Wait till you see him, dude.
Wait till you see him. Yeah, it's bad. It's gonna make it worse? Yeah. Does that work? Wait till you see him, dude. Wait till you see him.
Yeah, it's bad.
It's gonna make it worse.
Yeah.
But sorry, that was your overrated,
was not casually bringing up?
Yeah.
Or bringing up casually.
Casually bringing up the obgonorrhea
and then trying to gaslight your fiance
into having sex with you on the beach?
Yeah, I mean, at this point, luckily,
I mean, again,
we're bringing a bit of 420 Day Fiance into the show here,
but there's a guy who has, he's like Polly,
but he wants to be, like he has this trans girlfriend
in the Philippines, and he has been acting like he doesn't
want to have like an open relationship, and acting like
he wants to be monogamous, but the whole time they've been away,
he's been having sex with whoever. And then when he got to the Philippines, he had gonorrhea.
Uh oh. Yeah. Yeah. Put it in his words. I don't think gonorrhea gonna spread on the beach.
That was him doing the offensive thing that American people do when they speak to someone
whose English is a second language where they start chopping up the like sentences. Yeah.
They're like, this will make it easier.
I'll speak incorrect English to you.
Yeah.
That's exactly how.
Yeah.
There's no leaking though.
So that's cool.
Also, I think, I think it's really good to know that in polyamory, both people know.
Yeah.
Right.
That's right.
Right.
Yeah. Right. That's right. Right. Right. Yeah. Underrated partner.
Polyamory is not you doing it
and your partner being like,
I'm so glad I'm an ag.
Secret polyamory.
Yeah.
I think that's what it is.
Overrated.
Very overrated.
That is not a thing.
Even if.
No more sludge.
Yeah.
Did you say that?
This guy said it all the time.
All he does is talk about his gonorrhea.
And then he's like, hey, when you introduce me to your family, you're not going to tell
them about the, you know, the whole.
I have gonorrhea.
And it's like, dude, what are you doing?
There's also another quote where he goes, I hope God area doesn't ruin this whole day
Anyway, he's like I'm just gonna own it. I'm just gonna own it, you know, no that is kind of his like strategy and it
Accurately oh
Wow, he's not what I expected him to look like
Yeah, I know isn't it so much worse now that you see?
Also, his plan, he left an apartment that he can't pay for in America.
His secret plan, in addition to being secretly Polly,
was also to secretly move in with his girlfriend who was expecting to move to America.
Yeah. He's like, I could live in the Philippines.
It seems way cheaper.
Actually, wait a second.
My entire plan was hinges on you saying yes, but not knowing me at all.
Wait a second. I just got the craziest idea. He says he drops his suitcases in her apartment.
Pretty much. Pretty much.
He's like, also-
And hops on the bed.
He's like, PS, I only have $20, but let's call out.
Oh, my God.
Oh, and also-
I have gonorrhea.
Oh, okay. Don't forget about that. Do I cover that yet? No. No. It's kind of my thing. Yes, I only have $20, but let's go out. Oh and also gonorrhea
It's kind of my way I'm worried about that beach trip miles though, what's gonna happen why I don't think gonorrhea gonna spread on the Beach no
You know why because I think the pills is no leaking. Oh you take the pills. Okay, take the pills is no leaking
Yeah anyway guys Oh, you take the pills. Okay, take the pills is no leaking. Yeah
anyway, guys
Oh my god, I'm trying to think like who he looks like so someone who from from
428 fiance one of the k1 said that he kind of looks like Breckenmire and I said Oh my god, that's so mean to Breckenmire. Then the person replied wrecking briar
wrecking briar wrecking briar, yeah
Sorry, Rick you get it. I gotcha Meyer. Yeah. Yeah fix the fix it in post guys
All right, let's take a quick break and we'll be right back
We'll be right back. It's just living. Yeah, things like JLo on her third divorce. Living. Girl's trip to Miami.
Mess.
Ozympoch.
Messy, skinny, living.
Restaurant stealing a birthday cake.

in real life?
And as all besties do, we navigate the highs and lows of life together.
And what does that look like?
A thousand pep talks, a million I've got yous, some very urgent I'm coming over because

We know who won.
So back.
Do we know who won yet?
I am checking Twitter as though that's going to happen.
I'm checking Twitter right now and it sounds like people.
Yeah, the polls are still open.
Okay.
Still open.
We're not going to know one even.
I mean, right.
We're not going to know.
It's what are we going to know?
I think because of last year.
I thought we weren't fucking talking about that shit.
I think because of last year, last 2020, we all think it's going to take a week,
but I think it's unlikely to take that long.
No, no, they changed.
The, a lot of laws changed.
Yeah.
For, for quicker vote counts.
So we should know.
They should know by the time they listen to this, the five people who aren't
skipping forward to our episode where we talk about who actually won. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. I think that, uh, I think like the reason I, I, I brought a couple of videos.
One is this account. Well, it's a guy or somebody or somebody calling themselves Helmer Rienberg
or somebody or somebody calling themselves Helmer Rienberg.
And it's a ton of like, I love these videos. They're all about the JFK assassination.
And they are like, they all have this like public domain, spooky music behind them.
And that's the main thing I like.
It's like, I know some people like to listen to like,
you know, women eat pasta or whatever.
And that's called a mukbang.
MSR ASMR
Yeah, whatever eat like
Strawberry yeah chocolate or whatever like that guy we had on one time
Remember that guy we talked about who ate all that crazy food like oh, yeah sexy sexy food. Oh, yeah
So like for me, this is like that
It's like I chill out and I I look at this and I realized that this country has been an
absolute, it's just full of, it's a pyramid scheme.
And that does tie into me feeling better about, yes, we need to stop going to
Starbucks and start running for office.
And, and that has been the case for a long time.
It's just that now we're finding out. And so I know that if Trump or what's her name, Kamala gets.
What's her name?
No, I mean, I don't even know like, or Jill Stein or whoever.
It's going to be the same baloney.
It's going to be the same baloney.
Basically Trump's going to, Trump's going to act like a bigger.
Oh, it will be a little bit worse.
It'll definitely be a little bit worse. But sort of, yeah. What, yeah, what, worse with Trump. Oh, it will be a little bit worse. It'll definitely be a little bit worse.
But sort of. Yeah.
What? Yeah. What?
What sort of get up?
Oh, God, who is it?
Now you got to say you got a reply.
Let me say and then smiley face with this.
Yeah. Like the one big guy one that like, yeah, well, I think that it was Parker.
Parker's texted me and he says, let's talk more tonight.
Fuck the election. That's what me and he says, let's talk more tonight. Fuck the election.
That's what he said.
Oh yeah.
Um, anyway, yeah.
All that to say, yeah, I don't know.
That's the thing.
Fuck.
We're talking about the election again, but I just, no, we're not the real
word about feelings around the election.
Every, I have a feeling America is going to go back to brunch so fucking hard.
Um, it's going to be just mind.
Brunch,y, baby.
Levels of brunch going.
Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
That whole thing, how like, that sort of like,
that was the phrase in 2020, how everyone was so tired
of like the pandemic and like being politically engaged
and the like, you know, Black Lives Matter things
that were happening over the summer, that people were like,
can we just get like back to brunch, you know,
like where we don't have to like deal with the ills
of our current country current country, right?
Right like Kings of Leon's new record that's called
Can we please have fun?
Yeah
Way to read the room
Absolute fuckheads
My friend from high school, I think is married to that singer
Anyway, shall we do you want to so this is a hell marine Berg
Yes
This is how marine Berg. Yes.
This is hell marine Bergen.
And, and he's just talking about like the officer tippet shooting.
And if you guys don't know about the officers, this up for me,
officer tippet was shot, um, allegedly by Lee Harvey Oswald while he was
running after the assassination, when he was running toward the
theater where he got caught, right. You know, but officer tippet wasn't supposed to be when he was running toward the theater where he got caught.
But Officer Tippett wasn't supposed to be where he was when he was shot. He was supposed to be downtown along with every other patrol officer that was in the city because the assassination
had already happened. So he wasn't supposed to be, and they even have like transcripts. This isn't like 1910.
They had transcripts of the police calls.
They even have audio of all the police calls.
They were taping all the transmission.
So they have the radio chatter.
They have the radio.
They have the actual announcement where they say all patrol, every officer in
this city, every squad car go to Dealey Plaza.
And wouldn't that be the perfect setup for a diehard robbery?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Bank robbery.
It's like, Oh, you thought the JFK assassination was political.
Who said we're not bank robbers?
Who took off with like a gold bullion?
Huh?
It's a bubby.
Officer Tippett was in this neighborhood that was nowhere near downtown.
And they actually-
I mean, it's close enough that Lee Harvey Oswald was able to reach there on foot.
Right?
Well, no, but no, but Lee Harvey Oswald didn't kill Officer Tippett.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, the whole assassination is absolute garbage.
I mean, it's-
How did this turn into the fucking JFK debate show suddenly?
I thought, what the fuck is going on?
Isn't it more, isn't it more fun to debate something that's way in the past, though?
I just love this because I know this is Jack shit.
So you're not I know you have an opinion on every single thing and croft into this
energy. I'm like, I'm just going to be like, here.
OK, I know is that anybody believes that Lee Harvey Oswald shot JFK by himself.
They are absolutely insane.
That is the most obvious, completely insane, insane, ridiculous.
I don't think they're insane.
I don't think it's as insane as some of the other theories. I don't think he acted alone, but I have my own conspiracy theory I've talked about before.
He may have done something, but he also may not have because there were people running
out of the building that saw him in the second floor cafeteria holding a Coca-Cola like two
seconds after the shooting, which implied that he was in the cafeteria while the shooting
was happening.
How does Coca-Cola leave branding like that on the table? Yeah. He just did like change to the course of human history and immediately
is overcome with the need to have a refreshing Coca-Cola.
Lee Oswald liked Coca-Cola so much that he was able to shoot the president and run four floors.
Yeah. And then kill again.
Ain't nothing like the real thing.
Five blocks away.
So the Helmer R marine burg thing is just great
I mean hell marine burke hell marine burkes great for whoever he is some guy, you know from Sweden
Probably from 15 years ago my ring bag. He probably got run over by a bus in 2010. It doesn't matter
I'm watching his shit from 2007. Yeah, and anyway, I just love I these, these things because it reminds me that, that, uh,
we're not the first generation to deal with, um, a bunch of nonsense, except for this time
we are aware of it.
And that generation for some reason was like, I'm happy enough with my, you know, dollar
a pound ground Chuck.
And I don't care who shot officer Tippett.
Yeah.
I got ground Sirloin for $1.25.
But if you think Lee Harvey Oswald shot Officer Tippett.
Wait, so what is this?
This is it. First of all, Chris, this is a 10 minute video.
So we don't have to watch any of it.
We don't have to watch any of it.
I'm just saying.
I do want to hear the music.
I didn't know we were really doing.
I didn't know we were really doing videos because last time I had some.
I should have gotten more fun.
I didn't know we were doing the show.
I didn't know we were doing like escapism.
I would have brought you a video.
Some guy like getting slapped in the face by a paint brush.
Okay.
Well let's look at that too.
But here's the, this is the Helmer Rienberg video.
A little music.
I like the music and I like this conspiracy.
It makes me feel, I don't know, somehow it soothes me.
Okay.
Well, let's, let the music is that hold music. So that's like, don't to find out how I can get an album of this on vinyl.
Okay. Let's find out.
On November 22nd, 1963, Dallas police officer, J.D. Tippett was murdered in Oak Cliff about 45 minutes after the assassination of President Kennedy.
According to witnesses, Tippett stopped his car at the curb on 10th Street and spoke with a man.
Okay, and there's a, I'm guessing that's a picture of him.
And then they just like scrunched it up.
It's like real mo-fi.
Tipit got out of the car and went to the man.
The man pulled the gun and shot.
Bup, bup!
Sorry. No, you need two more
But but but but tip it was hit four times and died in
There's the music for oh, that's what I'm talking about. This is the music from karate kid
This is like a music bed for like a racist depiction of like a massage parlor
Picture Hell Marine Berg playing the recorder.
Okay.
So this is J.
Oh, he's a looker.
JD Tippett is hot.
JD Tippett was hot.
Dude.
Yeah.
No one talks about that.
Kind of looks like RFK.
No.
So then Lee Oswald, it does kind of look like RFK Jr.
Damn.
That's interesting. And that's interesting. Chris, do you want to read the, I does kind of look like R.F.K. Jr. Damn, that's interesting.
And that's interesting.
Chris, do you want to read the, I think maybe you should read it.
I mean, it doesn't really make any difference.
I'm sure everybody is like confused as to what this is or why I'm talking about it.
But somehow it is heartening to me to know that we should have stormed the
Capitol in 1963, that's when this happened.
When a complete bunch of bullshit was dropped on the American public.
When one of the most popular presidents in history who wanted some progress on
civil rights and some progress on taking corruption out of unions and getting
rid of the mafia and stuff.
Yeah.
I mean, whether or not those things were even like good ideas, they were, there
was some, there was some,
there was a huge amount of idealism.
I'm just saying that's the moment in this country when people became cynical without
realizing it and they are just too happy to really, to really let it sink in.
And now we're dealing with-
Well, not everybody was happy with the state of America in 1963.
I will just-
No, no. Every, miles everybody.
Oh, okay.
Now I'm really on a podcast.
No, dude.
Everybody was super chill, dude.
You know how much folky shit cost in 1963, dude?
Dude, you could get a hamburger for 17 cents, bro.
Wait, so then, oh, go on.
No, just because I say,
if you think that, it doesn't make any difference. If you think that- Go ahead. No, I was just going to say, if you think that it doesn't make any difference, if you
think though that America has lost its way or whatever, it's just been lost.
And I don't know why that makes me feel better.
It just makes me want to fucking hang in there because other people are hanging in there
without even knowing it.
These people are shopping while, while this stuff was, was surrounding them.
Now we can at least shop and be aware that things are fucked.
I don't know.
Yeah.
That's, I don't know why that makes me feel better, but it just does make me
feel better to know that we are engaging with the problem now.
Reading about other fucked up times in us history when you're about to possibly
live through an incredibly fucked up time in us history.
I think that makes sense.
This is a continuum.
This is, we're all part, part of a story and people have lived through it before.
Yeah.
And even more importantly, just for me, like I like the fact that, that we
should have been activated by JFK, but, but everybody was just too, too, too, but everybody was just too checked out or whatever.
I just think that's-
LBJ to throw people off the scent that he had Kennedy killed,
then passed a lot of civil rights legislation.
Dude, tell him,
I would not pass that shit if I wanted him dead.
Dude, are you serious?
Oh my God. That is such a good LBJ.
That's LV chat.
Come on, bro. What are you talking about?
I feel like the stuff that's all up in my junk in my bunghole, man.
Come on now.
Oh, man.
Riding up my bunghole.
He does need his pants altered because he's got big, big dong and a low bunghole.
Yeah, it's something that Seam was going up his bunghole.
Definitely the pants that you tailor for him were riding up my bunghole. Yeah, it's something that Seam was going up his bunghole, definitely. The pants that you tailored for him were riding up my bunghole.
Yeah, he said something about it.
He was talking about his bunghole.
Jack, do you want to share a video?
No, not really.
I'd love to see more from Professor Crofton.
Mr. Crofton, what other videos can you show us?
Well, I guess I'm sort of obsessed with history because it does remind me that, yeah,
all this bad stuff's always happening.
And one of the things that was bad was the Civil War.
And so I was watching this,
the first time I was ever on this show,
I talked about metal detecting
and how I watch it on YouTube.
And I remember Miles said,
what the hell are you, what are you talking about?
You watch people on the beach?
And then I said, no.
Yeah.
No.
What do you think I am, an idiot? No, you fucking baby.. He was like, oh boy. What is it? What do you do?
Mr. Sophisticated and I was like I watch historical metal detecting and watching lowbrow beach metal detect
Detecting the idea is just like people leave shit on the beach and lose shit on the beach
Yeah, you might find a row. It. So it's just like getting people's rings
and getting people's like loose change and shit.
Yeah, and that's not interesting to me at all.
In fact, that makes me sad. Oh, come on, dude.
That makes me sad.
You know how much money they made, bro?
That makes me sad as hell.
Wait, why does that make you sad, Chris?
I just think it's like, that makes me, I don't know,
like finding some earrings at somebody, you know,
and then being like, ah, they're not real gold.
I mean, that just makes me, I just think you should be looking for the real shit.
Like you're doing something better with your time.
I mean, you're trying to make, I don't know.
You should be up on the boardwalk mugging people.
Right.
Yeah.
Strong arm robbery.
Well, whatever it is, I just think it's sad finding people's shit from yesterday.
I don't know.
Yeah.
But I don't want to 150 years yesterday or cell phones. like, you know, this guy we're about to watch,
if we watch it is like, and we don't have to,
but it's this guy, Aqua Chigga,
that was one of the people that,
yeah, that's his name, I know.
It's like, it's like, I don't know,
it's not the name I would have chosen.
Um.
But.
But.
But.
But.
But.
But. Not the name I would have chosen is so good. His name's Aqua Chigger and he is like one of the most popular.
He has so many subscribers and he even ended up on a dam.
He ended up on a, on a show called river hunters.
Oh, river.
So where he actually got to go to England and, and, you know, and like, and like all
over Europe and do like metal detecting and moats and stuff.
That's fun.
Yeah.
So he got to, I didn't realize, but he got to go, yeah, his real name's like
bow something or other and he's annoying, but he's really, really, uh, relentless.
And the guy just looks at civil war maps and goes to the river where the camp was
and says how they dropped stuff down the bank.
And then he goes and finds it. And so one day I was watching his stuff and then he, he found a damn
whole musket in the, in the river from the civil war. Yeah. And I was wild to me. I was just
knocked out. I was knocked out. I was like, what else is in the river then is like, you know, is the Ark of the Covenant in the damn river? Yeah, just sitting
there. Yeah, what else is down there? Yeah, like the damn, you know, everything is in
the river. Damn US Constitution. Oh, yeah. Old jukeboxes and, and just all kinds. I mean,
everything you could possibly want. Trump's missing votes from the 2020 election. Exactly. I'm just saying.
So yeah, so this guy, you know, I just think it was a knock, knockout thing for me to see
this, that there's still a.
And Chris, you are not alone.
This video for the listeners at home has 1.7 million views.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
So here's him.
He's saying, look, this seems like a good area to check out.
He's clearly like in chest high water right right now kind of hot also. Yeah, he stands around in the water
You know said you know, there's gonna be something there. I said a hunch
I've been hunting now for about 15 minutes found some modern stuff. Nothing great until now
Well, I don't know if it's great, but it's pretty cool from what I can see
He I got a decent signal on me. He like hit a smile in this way that I was like, oh, he's excited
He's like until now this guy does not get excited either. He goes he's like, I know but you just saw like look
There's this like little lip quiver. He does that. I'm like, oh, he's excited. Oh, yeah, he's excited right there
This is right there. He said you like his face about to smile and then he's like no I got
Okay
Never want to answer the phone call instead
Some type of long gun, I don't know could be like a modern shotgun or could be a civil war gun I'm hoping I can't really tell for sure
he's teasing he knows what he's doing he's a showman he knows that he's doing
baby why does he have like oh the yes yes headphones on that look like the
headphones that wait you're at a firing range but it's there the headphones for
listening to metal detector.
Weird that the style is so similar.
He's like Bob Hope, but with more algae.
Yeah.
Oh yeah, this shit is so visible, like just from the surface.
Yeah, it's just sitting there.
That's what's wild is like this shit is just all around us.
All right, he's gonna put his phone underwater.
Go under!
And it's gonna immediately break.
There it is.
We're underwater, folks. So it looks like a stick. underwater and it's gonna immediately break. There it is.
We're underwater, folks.
So it looks like a stick.
Yeah, it looks like two sticks side by side.
But it also, you would never know.
Oh no, there's the trigger guard and everything.
But that thing's been walked over for, you know, people have been, you know, swimming
and everything and they've been stepping on a damn stick. It seems like he just planted it, but it's the exact same like mossy ass color.
I know.
Part of me was like, what if this motherfucker just planted this shit?
He could plant it, but he's not.
He finds.
He's got.
Yeah.
And like, it looks like I feel like it would take so much work.
And it.
To get it to look like all that.
Yeah.
To get it to look exactly the same as everything around it.
Also just that he was like, yeah, I've been hunting for about 15 minutes
and I've found a bunch of modern stuff already.
He's like, yeah, this guy just can't stop finding stuff.
He does even videos on finding cell phones. I hate them.
I hate them. He doesn't care what he finds.
It just pisses you off when you see it's like fucking other cell phones.
Yeah, he finds a whole bunch of cell phones and old sunglasses and he's just as excited as he is when he finds a civil war gun.
He says everything we need to know about the people of the year 2012.
Right. Yeah, it makes me sad.
Everybody in the year they love likes they loved LG phones.
So he's using a magnet now to see if he can get a little magnet action.
Well, that's it. Magnet now to see if he can get a little magnet action
That's it
Yeah, I think we got it
So he's he's got a magnet on a stick and he just picked up the gun with it it's definitely a long rifle I'm seeing Civil War area here Chris
That's a Civil War carbine. Yeah, that's a Civil War carbine and he says it all calm, but that's about as excited as AquaChicker gets.
He's a very stoic guy who doesn't know how to name a YouTube channel.
Whatever he's doing, it's working for him. He's got 1.7 million views on this thing of him finding some moss-covered gun in the bottom of a prick
He did say wow, this is so cool
He's also put up like 1.7 million videos the guy's relentless. This is number one
Here Wow, there it is. Look at that. There it is. There's a gun from the Civil War. So
Which this reminds me So which side, which side, which side though?
This reminds me though of, I don't know which one it is, but he, he, you know, he
is another example of a guy that's like, you know, well, no, not a guy, but the
fact that he's involved with finding things from a period of history that we
think of is a long time ago when, uh, not only did the election go badly, but there was an
actual war and, um, people got through it, you know?
So that's another thing.
Like, I just like looking at history because it reminds me that this is
temporary and even if it is bad, we have had a really great run in post-war
America, post-World War II, we had an artificially good run of just standing around
eating ice cream and racing hot rods and fucking,
and you know, doing whatever the fuck we wanted
and not worrying about anything.
And that is not a normal setting.
Like we are not supposed to be able to just drive
through anywhere we want and get issued hamburgers
and get giant fucking, giant cups.
I have my state issued hamburger.
Hey, where you going scumbag? I'm issuing you a hamburger.
Yeah, oh, hello, I'm here for my hamburger and I'd also like a giant cup of icing
and some icing for my dog as well because we live in a...
Caligula didn't even get fucking pup cups.
Da da da da and filterless cigarettes for your daughter?
Yeah, I mean, whatever.
We've been living in like, you know,
extra money to go gamble.
Oh, let's go gambling.
I mean, that's not this.
We are living in a hedonist.
That's why we're all so fucking overstimulated
and bored as well.
And this is all I talk about on Cold Brew Got Me Like.
So I'm actually just pirating my own content.
But that's what podcasting is, Chris.
But the fact is, thank you that's the fact is that yes we are not living in an enlightened
manner we are living like complete slob sugar slobs we're sugar eating machines and on my podcast
I said this is what I said and I'm going to use it because I like it. All right. This is a quote.
Do you know what a cafe mocha was back in the old days?
Like, say, like the year 300.
Hmm. What a king, a king got a cafe mocha
now once a year and the people danced and only the king got to eat it
because only the king got to experience that.
We're so happy that the king got to eat it too. They the king got to experience that level of decadence.
People were so happy that the king got to eat it too.
They were like, yes!
They were like, he deserves it.
He deserves, yes.
He deserves it.
Is it yummy?
Is it yummy, your highness?
Is it yummy?
Look at his smile.
And you have to travel the globe.
They had to travel the globe.
They had to go to damn,
they had to go to, you know,
wherever they had to go to, Siam,
to get the damn chocolate. And then they had to go to, they had to wherever they had to go to Siam to get the damn chocolate.
And then they had to go to Australia to get the whipped cream.
And then they had to go to-
Killed hundreds of people.
Yeah, they had to go to Madagascar to get the cardamom.
Yeah.
And then finally, after all these elephant trains went through the mountains and they
delivered all the ingredients, they had a bunch of very lucky people got to assemble
this mocha for the king, the benevolent
king of Scandinavia.
Side question, but relevant. How often, you know, knowing like
how exotic things were that would travel like by land to
certain like to the monarchies of different countries? How
often do you think they pulled up and the shit was completely
like rotten? And yeah, but they're like, oh, fuck, dude, turns out fucking yogurt is disgusting.
Yeah. Or like they ate it anyway, because they have no like sort of,
they have no basis for comparison. They're like, this looks amazing.
This green meat you've brought me. Yeah, totally.
I died. That's how we got cheese.
They were like, we brought you milk. And they're like, oh, what's that?
It's a liquid. It's a solid that has green shit.
Yeah. So these people had the green meat that traveled on the
Silk Road. And now we're like, I don't know how am I supposed to
choose a movie? There's too many on Netflix. They all suck.
Different world. Different problems. I think ours are just
as bad. Yeah, personally.
But to that point, I think it is what you're saying, Chris. I think to make it serious again, things do change.
Nothing stays permanent.
And for all the things that we think like we're just stuck in certain
systems or whatever that things can happen and they often do, they usually
do so and might offer a richer existence.
Then the cafe mocha is just for the king. That's what I'm saying
Yes
instead of this mindless like I want to have 15 cafe mochas a day and I still feel like shit and if we're out of
Mocha, I say where's the mocha? Where's the mocha? Where's the mocha you motherfuckers?
I didn't join Starbucks rewards program did not get any fucking mocha
You know, that's the kind of people we're dealing with.
So like if we actually took away all the drive-throughs, I don't know
if that's on Trump's agenda.
Definitely not.
Probably not.
But you know, I would like, if there was some moment where we had to come together
and remember that some guy fell in a river and dropped his gun and he was probably
22 years old fighting for some bullshit that was all
fucking organized by politicians as usual, pitting Americans against each other while
the politicians sit on a hill and smoke pipes or whatever.
And you know, we're now aware.
That's all that's what my historical stuff is.
That's what reading about hearing about the JFK assassination is, is just like, if we
can get engaged, we're going
to find out that that is such a good feeling as opposed to this endless
hedonistic existence, which America has been indulging in.
Yeah.
Just the, yeah, the consumption to sort of soothe the like bigger problems that
we have, because it's been pretty brilliant, I think just globally, where
it's like, let's swap out progress for consumption and use that as the new gold standard for people to experience
some kind of meaning.
It was like, how much can you get?
Let's get these cool pants.
And everyone feels like a husk.
You know what I mean?
There's no, because everyone has the exact same shit too.
So it's like, not me.
You just have to.
My drip, my drip, my drip different baby.
I'm different.
You know, you know anybody else with a Dodger's hat?
I have never seen that.
Yeah.
That is nice.
Call me chlamydia.
Not with a, not with a barely applied I voted sticker on it.
Nice one.
Jack.
What did you say, Jack?
I said, call me chlamydia cause I drip different.
And I think for the listeners, it would be fun to hear the second time around.
Uh, yeah. Dirty jokes from the era of the Civil War. Yeah.
Let's bring back dirty jokes. Let's bring back dirty.
Am I right?
You can't say anything anymore. God damn it.
Exactly. You're on A. Welcome back to the podcast, Going Blue with Miles and Jack.
Do you think Joe Biden is like hoping that kind of, that the Democrats lose.
So he can be like, see, fucking told you.

This is Camilla Luddington and we have a new podcast.
Call it what it is.
You may know us from Graceland Memorial, but did you know that we are actually besties
in real life?
And as all besties do, we navigate the highs and lows of life together.
And what does that look like?
A thousand pep talks, a million I've got yous, some very urgent I'm coming up first
because I don't know, let's face it,
life can get even crazier than a season finale
of Grey's Anatomy.
And now here we are, opening up the friendship circle.
To you.
Someone's cheating?
We've got you on that.
In-laws are in-lying?
Let's get into it.
Toxic friendship?
Air it out.
We're on your side to help you with your concerns.
Talk about ours, and every once in a while, bring on an awesome guest to get their take
on the things that you bring us.
While we may be unlicensed to advise, we're going to do it anyway.
Listen to Call It What It Is on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your
podcasts.
And we're back. Could you hear the Trump deflation creeping into my voice?
As I said, Peanut the Squirrel and Tucker Carlson.
All right.
So Peanut the Squirrel is a very adorable pet fluencer.
Was.
Was.
Still living in my heart.
Squirrel alert.
So a pet squirrel that had a big Instagram following the New York
department of environmental conservation had asked his owner to not own squirrels
because they-
It's illegal.
Yeah, it's illegal.
He was like, fuck that.
I will also own raccoons.
The New York Department of Environmental Conservation
euthanized both peanut and a raccoon
owned by this same couple over the weekend.
And it's being touted as an example of state overreach.
And it's specifically being grabbed onto
by the Trump campaign. So I, like, that's why I was trying to, like, get my head around how this became their cause.
I was like, so did, did Harris speak approvingly of this decision?
Like, that seems like such a, such a blunder on her part.
Like, did she just come out and she was like, yeah, fuck peanut, the square.
I'll say with my whole fucking chest
fuck peanut the squirrel and fuck that raccoon too
all right anyway like that's what i was
live from new york it's saturday night
it's like andy samberg in like a squirrel outfit and she's like pointing a gun at him
yeah yeah oh she's like y'all oh y'all didn't think i knew how to lick this glock watch this
gun at him or something. Yeah.
Oh, she's like, oh, y'all didn't think I knew how to lick this glock?
Watch this.
I mean, that does sound like her in some ways.
But the couple claimed for their part that jealousy played a role in what happened, which
I always love when that is just the only explanation people, I don't know, they were jealous, maybe
ever think about that? They were jealous.
Of what? Of a squirrel?
Of the fact that you are a squirrel.
The dad, the husband of the duo is known as Squirrel Daddy.
Not OnlyFans.
Peanuts dad, very kinky player,
has a pretty good following on,
that's the description in his bio, not just me describing him.
But it has a pretty big OnlyFans following.
And the New York Department of Environmental Conservation had to come out and explain
that in actuality, the squirrel bit someone involved in the investigation into the illegal keeping of squirrels and they had to euthanize the squirrel to test it for rabies.
I just love that this is their fucking, they're like, no, dude, this is going to do it.
We need to get people turnt up about justice for peanuts and the dude's OnlyFans account.
Yeah, this horny rat owner.
Elon Musk claimed that Trump will save the squirrels and by extension, America's squirrel
themed jerk off videos.
And JD Vance said that Trump is fired up about this issue and that the Biden administration
doesn't want us to have pets.
It's just like they can't not be weird.
You know, like he is the guy who is like,
you know, fuck cat people,
people who own cats as pets.
But then they're like, here's the way we'll get everybody
on our side for this election
in the last week of the election.
People who keep squirrels as pets.
Well, it seems very much in theme
with the chronically online way
that the campaign is run, right?
I mean, that's partially why it's so weird
is because also the internet is weird.
So like these people are very like 4chan influenced,
which was weird and now they're current.
Yeah, you know, it's just all weird.
And they're like, we should go on Aiden Ross's like live stream.
It's like, who are you talking to?
Yeah, like dude, you gotta go see Andrew Schultz.
What do you create?
You gotta kiss the ring.
Like nobody gives a fuck.
Okay.
Great voter outreach.
Yeah.
So, you know, there's grotesque mask off racism on Twitter in response to this
comparing the murder of the squirrel to the murder of George Floyd death of the
squirrel, death of the squirrel to the murder of George Floyd. Death of the squirrel.
Yeah, death of the squirrel to the murder of George Floyd.
And also they're using this as an example
of state overreach and just days ago,
another woman died as a direct result
of the DAP's decision and Texas abortion ban.
So, but that's not the example of government overreach.
No, cause that's too potent in the other way.
So let's not touch that.
Yeah, she wasn't a little fuzzy cutie.
That's the other thing.
Like there's this very childlike they can only we got to save the babies.
You know what I mean?
It's very it's like a seven year old mentality.
Yeah. You know, they only like it if it's cute and little.
Yeah. All right.
And just as a bit of an additional preview of the weird flavor of fascism,
we'll all be living under soon if Trump does win.
Is it easier for you to just be like,
Trump's going to win, man?
I think it is.
Do you do that in case it happens?
You've seen how I am as a basketball fan, Miles?
Yeah. And guess what think it always comes true.
Look at what's happening to the Sixers.
No, I don't know.
Yeah.
I think there's just, yeah, like keep the expectations low so that like
get that some of the good comes through.
I get that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But you know, I do like, I have been following the polls and the people who think Harris is a better chance than anybody in the mainstream was saying for a long time.
I just but I still think there's always a chance that, you know, things are for sure.
Yeah, sure. So yeah, absolutely.
I do just like how weird because because the power will all be consolidated under Trump, I think it's easy for people to not remember that in 2016, it was like he came in, he didn't think he was going to
win, he didn't have a team around him, and was using people who were political operatives
around him.
And then those people were like, yeah, we're not going to do that.
We're not going to tell you that.
You're going to like say something crazy and we're going to ignore it. Now, Elon Musk will be a major figure in his administration.
Tucker Carlson, I think will be incredibly powerful.
I did just want to check in with Tucker because I think if you gave
Trump a lie detector test and asked if he believed in God,
he'd make fun of you for asking the question.
But the people around him believe some pretty wild shit.
Tucker Carlson, who I've heard people refer to as like,
he would be like the sensible voice of
Trumpism that gets people to come on board for it.
Just told an interviewer that he was attacked by
a demonic force in his bed which
left scratch
marks that made him bleed. So when he, this is for a documentary called Christiana Tease,
because there's multiple Christianities. Okay. Like it's like a, they're teasing that Christ
is a real thing. Tease. Yeah, exactly. I wish it was Christiana T-E-A, but it was like, because they're real gossipy.
Yeah, yeah.
Ooh, Christiana T.
Don't think a cool youth pastor hasn't used that one before.
Oh my God, yeah.
Let me spill some Christiana T for you kids.
It's like the, what is it, the Protestant version of like confession.
How about some Christian some Christianity, folks?
Why don't you let me know? Little tea spills.
Who's hooking up with who?
Yeah.
Tell me, you're 22-year-old youth pastor.
The guy who's interviewing him,
who's the head of that documentary,
again, hosting a documentary about Christianity,
so not exactly foreign to magical thinking, asks Tucker.
He's like, you were attacked by demonic forces.
Are you referring to journalism in an extremely labored metaphor?
To which Tucker Carlson says, hell no, damn alligator bit my hand off, essentially.
A little happy Gilmore reference.
Timely and cool.
No. So asked if he was referring to journalism, Carlson responded, no, in my bed at night.
I got attacked while I was asleep with my wife and four dogs.
We'll come back to that and physically mauled.
Carlson said he still bears the scars,
said his assailant was a quote,
demon or by something unseen that left claw marks on my sides.
Again, he was sleeping with four dogs.
He said at the time of the attack,
he was asleep in bed.
I was totally confused.
I woke up and I couldn't breathe,
and I thought I was going to suffocate.
I walked around outside and then I walked in,
and my wife and dogs had not woken up,
and they're very light sleepers.
Then I had these terrible pains on my rib cage and on my shoulders,
and I was just in my boxer shorts.
I went and flipped on the light in the bathroom,
and I had four claw marks on either side underneath my arms
and on my left shoulder and they're bleeding.
Then he talked to his intern and his intern was like,
''Oh yeah, demons will do that, Doug.
They attack in your bed all the time.''
I think just worth knowing.
I also want to just fact check the people who were like, yeah, he was trying to cover up an affair.
First of all, the specifics of the story would require him to be like trying to
explain it, like he just snuck off into the woods at night to like fuck
someone or something classic cheater move.
Yeah. And to the specifics of the story would require Tucker Carlson
to be someone capable of fucking someone well enough
to cause them to dig their nails in his.
I just like don't see that for him.
You know, yeah, yeah.
Seem like he could also just be paying to get scratched up to.
Yeah, that's right. He's like, yeah, just shred me up. He doesn't seem like he's- He could also just be paying to get scratched up too. Like he's just like that.
He's like, just shred me up, meet me in the woods.
Call me crazy.
But I feel like the most likely candidate
is there in the first sentence of the story.
When he reveals he sleeps in a bed
with his wife and four dogs.
Yeah.
Yo, with the kink daddy squirrel guy,
are they eroticizing their pets?
Like, why do you have four dogs in bed with you?
And then, yeah, anyway.
Also, like, if there's anyone,
this makes me believe in a spirit world, actually,
because if there's anyone who I would think
would get attacked by a demon, it'd be hip.
And also, like, if you believe in sort of Jesus
and demons and a demon attacks,
don't you think you would take some time
for some self-reflection and be like,
maybe I'm not on the side of the light here,
if I'm being like.
Well, more, this happened a year and a half ago
and he has corrected his ways, he claims,
by becoming a full boat Christian fascist.
Yeah.
He addressed a rally in Georgia last week and I saw the headline that he was like talking
about Trump being like a debt, a bad daddy.
But I just want to read the whole quote because also he was in bed with his wife who, you
know, I don't know how she feels about her husband, but I just want to read this quote
from him.
He's talking about if Trump gets elected, he's not vengeful.
He loves his children disobedient as they may be.
He loves them because they're his children.
They live in his house, but he's very disappointed in their behavior.
And he's going to have to let them know when dad gets home, you know what he says?
You've been a bad girl.
You've been a bad little girl.
That's that is direct.
That's what the that's what he said.
Like that is he's getting scratched up for money.
He's paying for that shit.
Yeah.
He's paying.
He's on kinked at kinked at squirrel daddy's only fans for sure.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He's like, can you make it look like squirrel scratches?
Really be hot.
It just literally recreated the most disturbing scene from the handmade
sale for his closing argument for Trump.
That's true.
Yeah.
Did you guys see by the way Margaret Atwood tweeted
comics that showed like handmaids going into the voting booth and coming out
like dressed as normal modern women and somebody responded.
Faces out of context on Twitter responded, faces out of context on Twitter responded. The author of that book used Islam,
not Christianity, as a model for her imaginary world.
This is obviously true as it resembles
Islamic culture and law and not Christian.
He said to the author of the book.
To Margaret Apple.
Who pointedly said that she
based the book on actual events in history.
Did you see SNL this weekend?
Cause there was the same bit where Sarah Squirrum played Margaret Atwood and like
this quiz show and was standing right next to like a Malini like it was like
playing like a hyper lib type character and had no idea that it was like he was
talking about a handmaid's tale and they're like, uh, right next to you is
Margaret Atwood.
He's like, Oh shit.
Um, it's her, it was shit. It was a fun one.
That's it.
Did you guys see that commercial
that was the two ladies who went into the voting booth?
And yeah, those were my friends.
My buddy Dana, my friend Dana Weddle.
Yeah, and Julie Golden.
Yeah, they did that.
And so they were like, we were all texting each other
when it like got on Fox.
Their Fox News was all pissed about it.
You know what I mean?
And they were like, they're doing- The Julia Roberts one? Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what I mean? And they were like, yeah, the Julia Roberts one.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Boys are.
Yeah.
They were like, they're doing our work for us.
They're showing this exactly to the people who we want to see it.
You know, this, this is perfect that you mentioned that because Charlie Kirk,
we, we last week, we're like, yo, he's freaking out at a certain point.
We're like, is this a motivational tactic?
I'm starting to think this is actually just freaking out now because he brought
it up again on another podcast about like referencing this commercial.
Yeah.
And this is, this is what he had to say about like, this is basically part of
the Harris campaigns plan, which is like this, just listen to this.
... Harris in the advertisement and she lies to her husband about who she votes
for and the Democrats, so just so we're clear,
the Democrats push to win.
In order for the Democrats to win with the current data,
millions of wives would have to lie to their husbands.
I'm gonna say that again.
In order for them,
because we're not seeing this in the data yet,
we're not seeing this collapse,
their path to victory would be the largest mass conspiracy
of spousal lying in political history.
Prove me wrong.
Prove me wrong.
Dude, those guys are so afraid of losing this fucking weird perceived power.
We're like, my beautiful life must be honest with me at all times.
You know what I'm saying?
I mean, because this is like for whatever reason,
the conservatives are connecting the dots that like a woman
Has the capacity to think for themselves?
Yeah, because like even those pictures of Trump and Eric Trump over the weekend like
Leering over the voting booth to make sure their wives are voting for them is so like you're like, oh y'all are fucking shook
Yeah, what is this shit? Yeah
No, and and they also like they refuse to acknowledge
What that power structure does that they're like are women tragically who are not safe?
Because their husbands are abusive to speak to vote in the way that they would like to write
They can't they can't even acknowledge that that might not be a possibility
they're just having like yeah like that like episode in the Sopranos where Tony is like becoming aware that he thinks everyone's like laughing at his shit and just like lying to him because he's the boss and like there be like these I bet these conservatives like thinking of all the shit their wives.
No, Charlie, I love your guitar playing.
Your penis is normal size.
No, I definitely came, babe.
Oh, no, I definitely came, babe. Oh, fuck.
Yeah.
Oh, man.
I love that you hate Cunnilingus, you know.
No, you're right.
It is gross.
Our son's not gay.
Oh, my God.
We're, uh, yeah.
Holy shit.
We shall see.
Anyways, stay safe out there, folks.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
