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 nonstop infotainment laughstravaganza. Yeah, so without further ado, here is the weekly zeitgeist let's talk about venezuela guys oh yeah let's let's get light yes some of our listeners pointed out that we didn't really tell the full story of venezuela's troubles uh when we were talking at the end of last week

about the fact that you know the their country has been in economic collapse for years now, and America actually plays a role in that. I think we even mentioned that Lindsey Graham said that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wants to turn America into a Venezuelan-style socialist disaster or something to that effect. So we should probably mention that America has played a large role in Venezuela's current economic situation. First of all, they have imposed unilateral and illegal financial embargoes, which cut Venezuela off from most financial markets. And these are illegal by international law. So it's causing even greater shortages of essential goods,

including food and medicine, and it makes economic recovery basically impossible for them. And then there's also, you know, a big cause of their economic collapse was the 2014 fall in oil prices. And there is some speculation that that was the result of a US and Saudi conspiracy to basically flood the international market with cheap oil, right? And Super Producer Ana Hosnia, this is something you talked about on your tremendous podcast, Ethnically Ambiguous. Yes. If you go back to episode four we are terrible at this we did discuss how saudi arabia is considered a swing producer of oil and they basically wanted to take out iran and america's oil and america and no so america was doing fracking that's how

they were getting their oil but because also america didn't want russia to have any oil power so they teamed up with saudi arabia and were like okay yeah fuck our oil too and basically did it so saudi arabia they have so much oil they can regulate the market they only in 2014 had to sell for seven dollars a barrel while america was selling for sixty dollars a barrel so they already knew they could run the market and they wanted to take out iran's ability to oil. They want to take out Russia's ability to sell oil. They just want to run the market. And in doing so, they did, but they basically screwed over Venezuela. Yeah, they bankrupted Venezuela, and Russia and Iran all got hurt by it. Because, I mean, it was basically the Western powers realized that the non-Western powers, Venezuela, Russia, Iran, were kind of overly leveraged in oil.

Also, Africa as well, like Libya, Angola, Nigeria also suffered. Yeah. Screw those guys. They've had it too good for too long. Yeah. Yeah. So, I mean, it's a long standing. And obviously, America has a long history of meddling in Central and South American nations and just supporting any right leaning regime over anybody who wants to share a single thing with the people.

So yeah, it's not all just like, well, look at them. They really fucked this up. America kind of had its foot on the scale slash their head it goes very deep because they one of the reasons they want to screw iran over is so they'd have less money to put into like soldiers fighting in syria right it's all never-ending circle like all that screws over venezuela who's over here like I'm not fighting anyone in Syria. We ain't fighting nobody. You deal with what happens to you. It's wild.

Yeah. There we go again. It is wild. Yeah. Wild is now the word that anytime we say it in the office we're like whoa. We were right when we said people say that word. I've never had less to add. What is your take on Syria, Nick?

I can't imagine what y'all talked about last week where someone was like, we need more of that. That was fun. I just missed the laugh. Yeah, no more laughing. Oh, man. Well, that's depressing, but I'm trying to relate it to my own life and failing to. It just sucks that Venezuela is a casualty of all of this when they're definitely, they

have no stake when it comes to like global warfare. Right. We just have a coffee. They just have no chance because they also have a corrupt leader so you just like have no chance yeah they've got a lot of things going on

I was under the impression it was pronounced Venezuela there you go Nick there we go there you go that's your way in take it home with you guys

Venezuela Venezuela take it home the situation in Venezuela in Venezuela it's a Venezuela I mean they're trying to be self-sufficient like cutting your own hair for instance The situation in Venezuela. In Venezuela, mira. No, no, it's a me. It's a Venezuela. La situación.

I mean, they're trying to be self-sufficient, like cutting your own hair, for instance. Oh, God. They're all nuts. Right. These people don't deserve oil. I don't know what to... I didn't get the whole story. So Cliff Sims talked about what Trump would be like giving tours to friends, politicians, or whoever. Yeah. He got a tour from the president.

And there's some fun details. Like basically it was all just him shading the Clintons and Obamas. Yeah. That's what he likes to do. Yeah. Go around whenever people would come into the oval office. Like apparently there's this thing, like if he had people over for dinner,

it always turned into, you want a tour? Like right after. And they're like, Oh sure. And then go to the oval office. this thing like if he had people over for dinner it always turned into you want a tour like right after and they're like oh sure and then go to the oval office like this is where lincoln rested his head when he came up the bill of rights right right there for you to look on but yeah would go into the oval office this is president tabloids yeah this is president petty right uh going into the oval office is basically like gesturing like this is President Petty going into the Oval Office, basically gesturing like, this is the scene of the crime for the Lewinsky-Clinton affair.

So it says, in a visit in 2017, Trump told a TV anchor, I'm told this is where Bill and Monica, ellipsis, stopping himself from going further. And then it says, three other people who have embarked on a tour with Trump said he made similar comments regarding the former president and White House intern, laughing and making facial expressions. The subject often leads to lengthy, sometimes crass conversations. Wait,

so facial expressions being the blowjob facial expression. I don't know. He just raises his eyebrows up and down. Right. Every five minutes. Hey, you know what happened here? It's fun. It's going on over there?

Uh-oh. That's where it was. No one even knew they were sexual innuendos. Right. Just doing like chicken wing arm flapping. I don't even know. But yeah, so I think he had a record of making people uncomfortable somehow with his obsession with the Clintons and talking about their,

you know, little trysts that were going on back there. Especially, I mean, the facial expressions really is kind of awesome. But the lengthy part is like, also like people are almost like, right,

right. Okay. Like, yeah. Can we, can I go? Right. Also where Kennedy like dealt with the crisis of the cuba

missile crisis you know like all sorts of important things happened here right president trump yeah yeah there was that i think jack nicholson and uh mars attacks right when the martians came yeah yeah that's how off-putting that man is is that these people are getting a once in a lifetime experience of a tour of the Obamas was that they were bad tenants that put like holes in the wall and that Obama sat around watching basketball all day. Not racist. Not racist, just a fact.

It's not racist if that's the deal. He's black and loves basketball all day and was a bad president. He just sat in here and watched basketball all day. Yep, seems like he just sat in here and watched basketball all day yep it seems like that's what obama was blasting that trap music or something i don't know right but yeah he just said yeah all day holes in the wall also he would repeatedly say yeah this place is in real rough shape like when he first got there right because i remember like

his first sort of thing of like just trying to constantly allude to some fucking weird idea that the obamas are out of control tenants who's just bashing the fucking walls in right but yeah and then but it's just such a weird thing because then he brags about how like how small the tv used to be in there right and now he's like well now i got look now it's big that's gigantic. Did you build the big TV? He clasped. He had to join up. Oh, so you made it better? So now you're in here watching TV all day? Yeah, right.

Okay. Well, you know. Yeah. We're going to need a bigger TV. I did want to bring up the redesign of the Pepsi logo because Pepsi back in, I don't know, it was like 2007 or so, spent $100 million on having a new logo design. How much?

$100 million. Several hundred million dollars. I'm sorry. Several hundred million dollars. To go from the wavy thing to like the more- The guy's ass? Yeah. That looks like it's a sunburnt plumber bending over with his underwear peeking out.

Oh. Huh. Yeah. It does look like that. Huh? Cool. a sunburnt plumber bending over with his underwear peeking out. Oh, huh? Yeah, it does look like that. Cool. But so in order to make that transition, a design firm had to justify like how brilliant this change was. Right.

Because the Pepsi company side by side, it looks like the most minimal fucking change. So Gawker got their hands on a 27 page document back in the day titled breathtaking design strategy and it contains like all the references to the golden ratio feng shui uh there's like this thing that it has a x-axis that says convention to innovation and then a Y axis that says DNA to the future. And it puts the like old Pepsi logo on one and then is like the future is now with the new one.

Wait, that's merely to just like create the metaphor of what? So there's nothing. Because when I saw that, I'm like, what the fuck is this? It doesn't even make sense like in a mathematical sense. No, they're just so they include the mobius strip the earth's geo dynamo and then comparing that to the pepsi logo it's just amazing i what the fuck do they think the consumer on this end be like i fuck with it because they use they incorporate a sacred geometry into this. It gets really good on page seven.

Their thesis is that they're tapping into all this subconscious stuff. This is the future for Pepsi. But it's truly a remarkable document of just how screwed we are as a species. I was so confused when I saw Robert tweet it out and then I saw you retweet it. And I just started looking through and I thought it was some kind of bad scientific presentation that was just lazily using Pepsi logos

because the diagrams are way too excessive for merely a marketing deck. Right. That I was like, no, this has to be some kind of science. 300 BC. And I stopped.

Golden ratio. You just figured it was over your head. Yeah, I did. Cause I was like, oh, this is some other shit. And then I didn't know that this was them.

What they were. Justifying. Okay. I know you paid us a hundred million dollars to turn that little wavy thing into a more angular, like brushstroke. Right. Oh man,

we're in the wrong fucking business i know man i could put together a deck like oh my god you got a lot more have cracked the code like we need to look into what these people were doing during the 2016 election because they have cracked the code of how to just justify anything to anyone yeah um god I wonder if the Pepsi people who were in marketing that hired that firm were like in hot water. Like, after they do that, someone goes,

hold on, hold on. What the fuck was that? We paid off. That guy was on Coke. Right. And he just talked about space. We just wanted a logo redesign. Well, I'm sure this document

was the result of the company sending in a version and the Pepsipsi marketing person who was like trust me it's worth hundreds of millions of dollars going back and being like uh i'm gonna need a little more than that right i need a little more until it's just like the geodesic dome man right think about it they're like what the earth's geodynamo like we just asked what's testing better with younger people what What the fuck is all this other shit? Six hours later.

I'm just looking on the internet as I do. There's this weird article about space-age coffee and I look at it. There's a company called Space Roasters. They're giving coffee to the masses, bro, because the way they're doing it

is unlike any other process, right? Normally, you roast a bean and then you grind that up to make your coffee. That sounds old and boring. Yeah. Because they're probably using shit like heat to roast it. What are you, my grandma? Yeah, exactly. Well, guess what these guys are using?

Fucking heat. What? Yeah, also. But here's the hook. Okay. Space heat. Oh. fucking heat what yeah also but here's the hook okay space heat because they're using re-entry from space okay on like a space vehicle re-entering earth's atmosphere and that friction from the re-entry is used to then heat the coffee beans to roast it so what they do is they describe

it as they have a space roasting capsule the heat heat from reentry will be, quote, distributed around four cylinders, each containing 75 kilograms of coffee beans, floating in microgravity. The beans will be evenly heated and roasted during the process. The capsule will then be recovered after landing with parachutes. Okay, when you're adding that detail,

you mean you have nothing else to talk about. The entire process will only last 20 minutes, but will end with a marvelous aroma as the hatch is opened. Now, again, I do not know. They don't, in what I've read, I have not read anything about why space heat is more advantageous than terrestrial earthbound heat. It's from space.

Right, right. But that's, what the fuck? No, it's more energy. How? It's more energy. Yeah, in space. Yo, espresso space space brew oh space i remember that was a thing well i i remember growing up that there was a thing where we had tomato seeds that they were going to take into space and then bring them back and we were going to grow to see if they like changed at all did you guys remember that?

No, but that sounds fun. It sounds like a lie. A really stressed out science teacher. Yeah, these are space tomatoes. We're sending them to space. Space pizza. But anyways, I have always wanted my coffee to be toasted by the same thing

that killed the Columbia Space Shuttle crew. You have always wanted my coffee to be toasted by the same thing that killed the Columbia Space Shuttle crew. You have always said that. I have always said that. The seven-member crew of the Columbia Space Shuttle, the thing that took them down, I want that to be roasted in my morning cup. That's good news. It's just so weird. It's like the Apollo 13 fire. In the, like, even the, like, the press release that, like, you know, inquiring minds would receive, like, journalists. Like, some of the quotes are just like, coffee has been roasted the same way for centuries now.

And as space science has improved many technologies, we believe it is time to revolutionize coffee roasting using space technology. it is time to revolutionize coffee roasting using space technology. I've not again heard that like being suspended in gravity brings out other dimensions of flavor or that this heat is different than other. It's that's why it's just good for the sake of change. I guess. Right. Yeah. It's progressive.

Even then. So on Ars Technica, they tried to break down like what this even costs. Like, okay, so you're saying you get 75 kilos up there times whatever so they said for the sake of argument let's assume the company can launch a 500 kilogram capsule into 180 kilometer suborbital trajectory because that's how they envision 180 kilometer suborbital

trajectory being the way that they achieve that heat they say assuming all 300 kilograms of beans are roasted optimally this comes to 20 000 per kilogram of roasted beans. There are between 10 to 15 grams of coffee beans in a cup of coffee. So even on the lower end, just for the rocket cost, that is $200 per cup of coffee. Those are La Colombe prices. Oh my god, you're

bleeding from your nose. Is it bleeding again? Oh no. I don't know what that meant. La Colombe. Oh my god. Is that cocaine? No. That's perico. I don't know what that meant. La Colombe. Oh, my God. You got to. Is that cocaine? Those fancy. No.

That's perico. That's what we call it now on the streets. La Colombe is like that canned latte that Sophie always buys. Oh, right. And she's always freaking out when it's not there. It's like, oh, we're out of La Colombe. Yeah, that's right. But they have a few shops.

They have one in Frogtown. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. But yeah. What the fuck are you going to do? And then they're saying that's just the raw cost of attaching it to like getting a space flight.

Right. Cause you're picking backing off someone else's like million dollar operation. It's shitty coffee. That's the thing you have to understand. The beans suck. It's just folders, but it's been to space.

What we do is we get a 500 kilogram batch and then we put a little bit of that. We spread that 500 kilograms over 10,000 bags. Right. Yeah. And it's just to space. What we do is we get a 500 kilogram batch and then we put a little bit of that. We spread that 500 kilograms over 10,000 bags. Right. Yeah. And it's just you, man. Right. But you're going to love it.

I mean, the most expensive cup of coffee I've ever heard about is the coffee with the beans that go through a bat's digestive tract. Guano. Yeah. Or the monkey one, right? Yeah. It's various beans that get eaten because they're seeds of fruit coffee beans and so they get eaten by the animal shit out and people

pay huge amounts of money to make their coffee out of those beans that have been pooped um that makes more sense to me than roasting the coffee in a thing that's like space reintroduced. Well, because you can argue that their digestive tract is something different than just something as basic as heat. That's the claim that they make

is that like by going through the digestive tract, it's like some strange thing. I remember when we brought it up and then Zygang was on Twitter being like, I've had it. It's shit. Also, the way it's made is problematic. It's bullshit.

I'm like, yeah, I get it. I mean, right. Nothing about. I think it's purely for someone who gets so off on the idea that they're drinking coffee that has been has some kind of unique backstory. But I haven't even read where the fucking beans come from. Like, I think that's more important than how you fucking roasting. It's the roasting method, bro. It's all about the roasting method. At the risk of costing us $800 billion,

take that goddamn beast, bat, monkey, whatever it is, that eats the beans, put it in a space shuttle. Feed it those beans, have it in space, then put it out. Wow. Right? We figured it out. We've cracked the code. We're going to edit this part out.

Please. You will never hear another episode of The Daily Zeitgeist. No need. This is our business model going forward. Again, I just have to bring up, again, even through all their fucking materials, all of it is focused on how you just roast something with space heat. It has nothing to do with the flavor or the experience of the finished product. And it's just,

I don't know why. They don't even talk about it. Yeah. I don't get what you don't get, Miles. It's going to space. It's space heat. It's re-entry.

I know. Have you seen Apollo 13? I sound like this sober friend when these two guys who must've done so much blow when they figured this out. I'm the sober friend who's like, yeah, but what's different? Nah,

dude. Fucking, it's fucking space the fucking heat is from space dude it's not like fucking fire dude and then that's that you fucking tell him dude it's fucking different remember when house used to be fucking fun Jesus guys I just you know between that and your past uh whatever fine We'll be back in a moment.

And we're back. Well, speaking of ill-conceived ideas, maybe not. I don't know. I don't know. Nitro Pepsi. Let's have our takes. I mean, Catherine, resident food expert. Yes.

Nitrogen. We use it for cold brew. Yeah. Craft beers, teas, teas even, Guinness, you know what I mean? And I understand nitrogen. There's smaller bubbles. They're finer. And they give more smooth taste. But for Pepsi, they're talking about having a real creamy, luscious head on every pour. Which I feel like is not what Pepsi is all about in the first place. I feel like Pepsi drinkers don't want that.

It's just going to be flat Pepsi, isn't it? I mean, it's still supposed to be bubbles, but they're supposed to be smoother or something. The bubbles are finer. Yeah. And I feel like that's the type of thing that a food scientist who's in the lab tasked with coming up with new bullshit so we can have a new marketing angle. Maybe they can taste the difference because it's their job. Yeah. But does the regular person really taste the difference on something like that?

I mean, I definitely taste the difference between Guinness and other beer because other beer tastes like it has bubbles in it where Guinness like tastes flat to me. It's just smooth. Yeah. Because the bubbles are finer. Right. The bubbles are so fine that they don't even register as bubbles to my extremely sensitive palate.

I mean, the way they describe the nitro Pepsi, it sounds more like a float, like a Pepsi float. Right. I mean, they call it creamy. Yeah, which is odd. But they're going to have an irregular and vanilla flavor. There was a blog post someone was pointing to from the Deschutes Brewery in Oregon basically saying that CO2 is acidic,

so therefore it amplifies bitter sensations on the palate. Nitrogen doesn't. So since they're finer, it means the bubbles do less to, quote, scrub flavors away from our tongue. Interesting. So I guess that's why people believe CO2, like traditionally carbonated beverages, to be more refreshing because just the flavor goes away more quickly.

That crisp flavor? Yeah, whereas nitrogen just hangs around a little bit. Right. Is that why flat Pepsi tastes like a nickel? I don't know. It would be. You drink a lot of flat Pepsi? Have you ever had flat Pepsi?

It tastes a little like, it's got a little metallic flavor. To be honest, I've never had a Pepsi that was fully carbonated. Really? Yeah, I'm always just going around opening up people's flat bottles of Pepsi. Yeah, that is true. You do do that. I don't understand. It's called saving a buck.

Pepsi. I don't know why it's... Conceptually. Yeah. I mean, I don't know. I understand that there must be people who drink it, but I feel like I don't know those people. Right.

Of our team, Pepsi. Yeah. Who likes Pepsi? I was when I was a kid. Interesting. So the thing that Pepsi has, as opposed to Coke coke is it's sweeter like the the taste is sweeter and so i think when you're a kid you're just like

fucking sugar man yes yeah and so i i remember at like preferring pepsi to coke uh but diet pepsi is trash compared to diet coke i have Diet Pepsi would give me a seizure. It's so fake sweet. And I think Pepsi, just in terms of brand, you know, Pepsi came along second and they pitched themselves as the, basically their version of millennial, like the baby boomer. Generation next. Yeah. The choice of a new generation. And they were like kind of, it was the cool thing to be like, I'm going to have a Pepsi instead of a Coke. Hell yeah.

I remember the Spice Girls were in that commercial and I was like, yeah, all right. Right. But I do agree that they've kind of lost any sort of place in the sort of zeitgeist now. Like they're just the people who sponsor our halftime shows are like big. Yeah.

You know, they have big like branding plays they do but really I don't know too many people who are like we're a Pepsi family I posted an Instagram story

about Panda Express and I was like also why do they serve Pepsi products and someone who works at Panda Express DM'd me

and was like we're switching to Coke soon oh so I don't know if I just dropped a huge secret bombshell and maybe they're just ruling it out in some locations and who knows maybe they'll change their mind Oh. So I don't know if I just dropped a huge secret. Bombshell.

And maybe they're just ruling it out in some locations. And who knows? Maybe they'll change their mind. But that's what someone said to me. Oh, because it's not like it's a Yum brand company. Well, see, that's always the confusion. I believe that Panda Express is still independent. Right.

But I do think that Pepsi probably makes all their money from selling to the Yum brands. So like every KFC in Asia, which is the money-making ones. Pizza Hut, Taco Bell. Yeah. No, Panda Express is a family-run, independent organization. Family of pandas. Family. Yep.

They're the sweetest pandas. Uh-huh. Wait, it's really a home, down-home company? It is. It's local to LA. Oh, we are the only people that have the panda? No, no, no. The owners. Oh, we are the only people that have the Panda? No, no, no. The owner is local. Oh, I was joking.

Is this for us? I was joking calling it a family-run operation. It kind of is, though. Oh, wow. The founder still runs it, I believe. Well, look at me. Oh, yeah. It's a fast casual restaurant.

Yep. Founded by Andrew Cherng, Peggy Cherng, and Ming-Sai Cherng. C-H-E-R-N-G. Oh, wow. Look at y'all, Panda. All right. I mean, think about how much money they have had to turn down over the years to resist selling that company.

Oh, shit. It started in Glendale? Okay. Yep. San Fernando Valley. What's up? We got the Panda in the building. I would have sold when, like, in 1990,

someone was like, a million dollars for your panda express. I'd be like, a million dollars? Cut to you spending the last dollar of that million and looking at panda be a global empire. Do you have any idea how many pogs I can buy with this? All right, guys, let's talk about Gwyneth Paltrow speaking of incredibly talented people speaking of woke

speaking of woke talented people we got a couple stories going with Gwyneth GP today so first of all she was involved in a ski slope hit and run which I

that's the whitest thing I was in a ski slope hit and run, which I, that's the whitest thing that's ever been said. I was in a ski slope hit and run. So a doctor. Yes. How white does that make you not feel? Like you have a lot to achieve. Yeah. Can you ski?

I can't. I suck at skiing. Once when I was like 13, almost killed myself. You were raising a blue collar house. like 13 almost killed myself you were raising a blue collar house but yeah in a deer valley ski resort in utah this doctor is saying that he was just minding his own when gwyneth paltrow smashed into him from behind broke four of his ribs what the fuck he was knocked out it had a brain injury and he's suing her and the resort for 3.1 million dollars you know what i mean so this is a promo quote says according to sanderson and his lawyers paltrow was skiing down the slope behind sanderson when

she let out a quote hysterical scream like king kong of course first of all king kong does not scream like a hyster i don't know what the fuck that is yeah i'm trying to think of a sound that king kong made during the course of the movie. It's a burr. Right. Yeah. Which would be even doper if that's how a video breaks. Sounds premeditated, if you ask me.

Right. Yeah. Crashed into him, and then she landed on him. Then allegedly, Paltrow got up, skied away after the resort instructor accompanying her berated Sanderson for, quote, taking out Gwyneth Paltrow. So this guy is saying he was legit concussed. What the fuck? Was laying face down in the snow.

And then his friend was with him and was like trying to get him up. And the ski instructor's like, your buddy just took out Gwyneth. Wow. And then they fucked off together. This is a perfect example of why you can't believe all women. That bitch. That fucking bitch. I always thought of ski instructors as being so down to earth and like chill.

But yeah. Skiing is serious. It's intense. Yeah. So then they say after the crash, Sanderson's personality changed and he suffered memory problems as a result of his brain injury. He alleges he told reporters that at times he, quote quote felt mentally ill and couldn't function in the months following the incident then i don't know why they add this according to sanderson palcho allegedly had lunch

with her entourage and family and had a massage after the incident i mean she was stressed out yeah i don't blame her she's like dude you got my fucking way first of all she was skiing so she was hungry builds up an appetite and then she she was like, I hit that man. I'm so stressed. I get her story. Her story checks out. Right. But yeah, they're saying so now.

But she is actually considering a countersuit. Oh, shit. You know what I mean? Because she was saying, he hit me. Do you have any idea how bad this makes her look? That she almost killed this dude? I mean, I don't know. This is crazy.

It's just such a weird story of like people being like because then the guy also had like some shade to throw at the resort he's like people on that at that resort they don't know what they're doing oh they don't they just want to look posh right and it's like now you have like this level of like ski culture shade built into it it's like this is lames rich lames come here the only way to solve this is we got to get judge judy up in this bitch. Oh, shit. She knows how to cut through the bullshit. This does seem like a Judge Judy case a little bit.

Could you imagine her? Be like, sir, what's your story? Right. And then look at it, Gwyneth Paltrow. And you miss? She's like, I wasn't. I wasn't. I didn't say you could talk.

She's probably more risk than Gwyneth at this point. Oh, my God. Because didn't she sign like some $200 million deal recently? I don't know, but she has a fat ass. Judge Judy? She has a fat ass. Judge Judy? Really? What? Google it right now, playboy.

Judith Scheinman? As a woman with no ass, I appreciate a woman with a nice ass. Judge Judy butt. Wow. Judge Judy booty. Yes, she does. Judge Judy booty. Look at Miles's.

I wish you guys could see Miles's face. What? Wow. You're welcome. You're welcome. Everybody at Miles's. I wish you guys could see Miles's face. What? Wow. You're welcome. You're welcome. Everybody at home, pull over. We'll take a moment for everybody to Google that right now. Wow.

Google that ass. You should have Googled that ass. Yo, she's sporting curves. Yeah, man. Wow, good for you. Jack. Oh, sorry. Are we still recording?

Good for you, Judge Judith. I know, man. Wow. Live your best life, Ma. I'm not mad at you. Anyways, I can kind of- Wow, you guys really got thrown off. Focus, fellas, focus.

Very bad day, Judy. It's just a tongue roll. Judge Judy. it's just a tongue roll I do buy that though that like this by the sounds of that ski instructor it's a real celebrity culture like you got in Gwyneth's way bro

right I can totally see that shit happening America's such a star fucking culture yeah it's true I'm surprised that there was a quote that the guy like poked him away with his ski pole.

Like you fucking poor. You fucking poor. The fuck out of Gwyneth's way. All right. Well, another thing that Gwyneth did this week is helped legitimize the presidential consideration or campaign consideration Of who?

Of Howard Schultz. No, she did not. She did. What a fucking cunt. So let's review Howard Schultz. No, she did not. She did. What a fucking cunt. So let's review Howard Schultz's week. I fucking hate her. He was on 60 Minutes at the beginning of this week, and he claimed that he was going to run as a third-party candidate

to represent the silent majority. Oh, my gosh. Like literally quoting Richard Nixon's racist campaign about how the silent majority of this country is like scared of people of color basically. And then he had a campaign stop where somebody just shouted at him, don't help elect Trump, you egotistical billionaire.

Go back to being ratioed on Twitter. Nice. Billionaire asshole. Yeah. I thought I'm an asshole. Oh, did he? Don't censor that. I back to being ratioed on Twitter. Nice. Billionaire asshole. Yeah. I thought I'm an asshole. Oh, did he? You don't censor that. I would have retweeted that.

Yeah. Well, somebody censored it because that was a direct quote. Oh, really? Yeah. At the Barnes and Noble thing? No. Oh, at another event? In the quote that I'm reading from the source.

Coffee being at Pete's Coffee? Yeah. He would never enter. Yes. Someone asked him a question about would he tax the rich and he was like um i don't want to get into hypotheticals about what i would do if it's like bro that's the whole fucking point of running nobody's fucking with you then yeah like why it's also just you're supposed to answer those questions when people ask you those questions about what you

would do as a president matter what the fucking subject don't be slippery don't be slippery it's already proof that you don't what the fuck you're up to uh he called the medicare for all un-american un-american but then he had to walk it back because everyone like he realized it's like oh shit people want that right then he goes on the news that's the thing he's learning he's learning what the people actually want as it's happening because then he goes back goes oh i just want to clarify my statement on that i didn't mean it's it's not american i just mean it's not affordable right okay my guy and then he's like well you know at starbucks you know i gave people uh insurance which is true like he did help part time people get insurance or whatever yeah but then to act like you're the king of like you know

woke health care policies and just then being like unamerican because then yeah he was on morning joe and they're like how much is a box of cereal yeah, he was on morning Joe and they're like, how much is a box of cereal? Uh, 18 ounce box of Cheerios. And he's like, I don't need Cheerios. Yes.

And they just let him get away with that. And they're like, okay, I don't need Cheerios. Okay. What cereal do you eat? That would be the followup question. No,

they were just like, oh, it's three 40. Uh, ha ha ha ha. They were just like, you should have said name a cereal. Right.

Just name one. He's like, uh, uh, uh, fruit hoops. I don't Right. Cereal. Yeah, that's... Just name one. He's like, uh, uh, uh, fruit hoops. I don't know. Fruit hoops. He doesn't even know what they are.

Fruit circles. Yeah. Red circles. The colored circles. So this is where we get to Gwyneth Paltrow because she has a podcast, a goop podcast to improve the lives of women everywhere with pseudoscientific bullshit. White women. White women.

Yes. And as a testimony to just his decision-making acumen, he decided that that would be a good follow-up to his 60 Minutes appearance. To hop on the Goop podcast? To hop on the Goop podcast. And to let people know that he means business. You might think he's an idealistic,

kind of full of shit- CEO billionaire. CEO billionaire, just because he thought that he could fix racism by writing let's talk about racism on people's starbucks i mean that was and asking his baristas that did solve racism actually right we haven't had a problem with racism oh wait no the story before this confirms no okay good try though but anyways Oh, right, right, right. Good try, though. But anyways, so he went on there, and Gwyneth Paltrow and he talked for a while about how divisive the rhetoric on both sides of the political divide are. And Gwyneth Paltrow is worried about how that rhetoric will affect her kids.

And he was like, that's why you need me in the middle. What? Yes. They talked about hateful rhetoric that defines the contemporary political debate. Is she worried, though, because for her kids that they're going to flame her kids for her acts? Right. Because you'd be like, wait, you're Apple? Yeah.

Wait, I got something to say. I think that is where a lot of this comes from is that these people are you know multi multi millionaires hundred millionaires billionaires and they recognize that a lot of the rhetoric coming from the left is kind of hostile towards them because right right because they're hoarding resources hoarding resources from while people are starving just keep us in the country just a quick like excerpt from the interview uh schultz i'm drinking actually, instead of coffee because I've got a cold. Paltrow, are you allowed to drink tea? Schultz, I'm totally allowed to drink tea.

Paltrow, you are? Okay, I guess they sell tea at Starbucks. Schultz, yes, we do. Oh, my God. This is divisive. Hard-hitting shit. This is really true divisive. Are hitting shit. This is really, really divisive. Are you allowed to drink tea?

Right. Getting to the bottom of shit. You know what I mean? She was trying to see if he had a caffeine addiction. Right. Yes. That's what she was getting down to. Yeah.

She was trying to find out. Good for her. You don't have to really cut into the important stuff. Yes. He, by the way, also gives people bags of tea as, as gifts,

just loose tea. Oh, right, yeah. Because he's a generous soul. Yeah, but when's the story going to break that he tea bags bitches? That's the story I want to know about. It's inevitable. So that's Gwyneth Paltrow's week. Gwyneth Paltrow's hard-hitting journalism.

Yes. Yikes. I mean, I hope people think that he's a piece a piece of shit billionaire who shouldn't be voted for. I think they'll get that and that he's merely just trying to cut the line because he's a billionaire. He doesn't have to fucking actually win a, you know, a battle of ideas to actually get the nomination. And he'll just be like, I'll buy my way into disrupting the election and maybe getting Trump elected. Although he was he really wanted to make clear. He's like,

I would never do anything that would give Trump any kind of advantage. But when you look at it running, I mean, if you look at it in very black and white terms, a third party candidate would only probably most likely help Trump. But see, Howard Schultz doesn't see black and white. He's colorblind.

Right. Because of I've ended racism at Starbucks. Yeah. You could be mocha. Right. You could be macchiato skinned right i just didn't think i'd see a ross perot situation right right for this for 2020 yeah and here we are i mean you'd hope enough people just get in his face and like bruh get the fuck out don't do this shit he's just so rich that i can't imagine that right listen well because mike bloomberg who's also another billionaire who's constantly thought about entering as a third party candidate, he was even like, yo, don't do it.

I've done the research. He's like, I've done it. You don't want it. Don't do it. And he's probably got beef with Mike Bloomberg. He's like, he's a hater. So I'll do what the fuck I want. They fuck the same bitches, probably.

The same. T-Bag. Gwyneth Paltrow. Yes. T-Bag. The same... Teabag the same bitches. Yes, the teabag the same mistresses. Yeah, anytime. I just, anytime I'm hopeful that he's going to have a moment where he comes to a realistic conclusion, I come back to that campaign where he's encouraging his baristas

to have conversations about race. It's an emotional issue, but it is so vitally important to the country, was his quote. If a customer asks you what this is, try and engage in a discussion. race it's an emotional issue but it is so vitally important to the country was his quote if a customer asks you what this is try and engage in a discussion that we have problems in this country with regards to race and racial inequality we believe we're better than this and we believe the country's better than this that's how he wanted to address we believe we're better than this the country's better than this and we won't address it and if we do it i mean the most passive

way fucking possible yeah That's how serious this issue is. Yes. That's the type of person we're dealing with. How did he think these interactions would play out?

That someone would go, what the fuck is this? Wait, what is racism? But that's the problem is he's so disconnected and it's not like he has black homies

that are having these actual real conversations. He's like, well, I met Stedman once. He's like, he'll have the most basic conversations with people that are probably networking with him or. He's like, well, I met Stedman once. He's like, he'll have like the most basic conversations with people that are probably networking with him

or trying to get something out of him. So he's allowed to navigate those conversations because they're not trying to lose their connect or whatever the fuck. So he thinks he's being productive. He's like, you know, I was talking down to Keith over there, you know, my black intern. He told me it was a good idea.

So I fucking didn't. It's like, yo, he was trying to keep his fucking job, bro. He's trying to be a paid intern, my man. Exactly. The only race I care about is the human race. Oh, shit. And he started weeping right there. And so I think we just need to get that saying out in front of the people, you know?

It's an emotional issue. If a customer asks, yeah, you just say, we have problems in this country with regard to race and racial inequality we believe we're better than this four dollars 65 cents right oh also who fucking i haven't even had my cup of coffee yet i don't want to talk about shit with anybody right yeah fuck you have you ever had a i mean aside from like a local neighborhood coffee shop where you know the people intimately all the time. Yeah. I've never really engaged people unless I'm just fucking with them and just having fun or something. Right.

Never like, yo, man, how we feeling about the climate? Also, they're all 17. Right. Well, that's who really is going to solve this issue. 17-year-olds with memes. Yeah. All right. We're going to take a quick break.

We'll be right back. Daphne Caruana Galizia was a Maltese investigative journalist who on October 16th, 2017 was murdered. There are crooks everywhere you look now. The situation is desperate.

Well, in what is probably the technical opposite of stealing a bunch of teenagers' Taco Bell money, a corporation in the UK is giving back to their employees. Well, it's Aldi, which is a German discount grocer, but they operate in Europe.

It's UK stores had a record 2018 huge profits, and they decided to give some of it to their employees? I can't believe this. What the fuck does- What kind of corporation are they? Sharing their profits with their workers? So what's their angle? I don't know, man.

I don't know. I don't know. i don't know i don't know i don't trust it right but uh apparently you know they're giving bumps that put them above what most would call the like a real living wage according to like government way when you sort of relate that to the government required minimum wage right they're going beyond that so how does that help their bottom line i don't know man i mean the shareholders are probably pissed yeah you know and that's that's the thing that i wanted to flag this because this is this So how does that help their bottom line? I don't know, man. I mean, the shareholders are probably pissed. Yeah. You know, and that's the thing that I wanted to flag this because this is the slow, you know, slow, slippery slope into socialism. And, you know, we're trying to avoid that, you know, so Schultz 2020. But, you know, but what's crazy when you look at they were sort of comparing like the wages of like if you're a manager at this grocery store, their base pay is around 44,000 pounds, which is around $58,000.

That's more than double what a new police officer would make in that area. Oh, wow. So good company to work for. It is. And I think that, if I recall correctly, their wine is pretty good too. Oh, really? Just trying to get the cheap discount wine real quick.

Okay. A story this reminds me of is back when the economy was going through the roof. If you looked at the stock market. You mean when Trump became president? Right, when Trump became president and fixed the economy. It was going through the roof. He's the best president ever.

And then it was announced that earnings, people's average earnings were rising. And Wall Street got spooked by that. They were scared that people's earnings were rising because that's not good for the bottom line. Oh yeah. And so like the stock market went down, like that's our system guys. Right.

They're like, this story is like the sort of thing that would cause this company stock to fall through the fucking floor. They were like, uh, we have no confidence in the management at this point of this company. Yeah, exactly. Well, it's the same shit too.

Like a lot of people, when you think about all these, a lot of digital newsrooms closed up or had to do a lot of layoffs in the last week, we almost like, couldn't the money have been found in your CEO pay?

Taking a smaller cut. What? I know, man. I know. It's that crazy shit. But it's those simple logic steps that i feel like more people need to begin sort of thinking about it's like those people are gone so the people at the top can maintain their check right but that's the problem with working in a

capitalist society right i mean when you are employed by someone whose end game is just getting rich as fuck right like of course, of course, the bottom employees are going to get fucked over. I also just, like, I don't understand how anyone could believe that any kind of artistic job or any job in general is guaranteed. Like, that I don't get. It's like, unless you're trying to build your own shit. Right. Like, but I'm back to stop being motivated by money.

Like, that's the problem with a lot of people is they're motivated by money. And that's both at the top and at the bottom, you know. Stop being motivated by money. That's the problem with a lot of people is they're motivated by money. And that's both at the top and at the bottom. People aren't motivated to make themselves happy. That's a real issue. Do you sort of live in your sense when you say you're not motivated by money that you don't let that affect your decision-making? Because if you keep your happiness at the forefront, your success or your abundance will occur just pour it out of that

yep yeah it's true yeah and and the money can come or will come you know if you if you believe i mean it's it's unique to me because i don't have family to feed you know so it's like i don't shit on anybody who has to fucking do what they got to do to support their family but you know when when people are shocked that they would lose it, no disrespect to anybody at BuzzFeed, but it's like, yo, you work in art technically. Our jobs are not easy to maintain for the rest of our lives. Or justify to people who are so numbers oriented. Exactly.

And for the CEO to do what he did, yeah, it sucks, but that fool had a vision and then you essentially worked for him. So he gets to call the shots. That's what's fucked about it thank god in california we have laws to protect you know their the work that you know the vacation and sick pay that they're gonna get right right right their pto pay time off but that's also part of why you know people have to unionize and get that shit going so that the government works to our benefit but i think the problem is when people look at shit like going back to what you're saying, it's like, okay, the stock market,

they stop investing or whatever the fucking shit is. But it's like, who fucking cares what they think? You know, like if you're working like those guys are to make sure that their employees are taken care of, that's how you should run a fucking business and stop worrying about how people want to invest or don't want to invest.

Cause it's like, who cares about those people? Right. The money will come. Well, yeah, especially, or if you have like a company who's like you know their mission is to actually you know equally benefit the people who are putting the work in that benefit the people at the top

i'm sure that would motivate other people if you're selling something they'd be like oh i fuck with this because it's not just going to the one dude like everybody's getting on from my purchase but you know that's I guess that's phase two. Yeah, I think I'm very lucky because I grew up in a household where my parents started their own business, and part of the business was making sure they serve as lower income Latinos that didn't speak English and anyone that was lower income. And sometimes my parents would accept pay however people could pay,

a bag of almonds. Right, wow. They would be like, yeah, okay, that's what he does. So he gives us almonds. Oh, we got a guy who works, you know, for wineries.

So they would give us wine, you know? And I, so I'm lucky that I grew up with that because I don't think that it's weird. Right. Rather than your mom being like, let's get you to this audition. Yeah. Tell them how good that flat tummy tea is.

Or just like, you know, having them be like, oh, we can't service you because you don't have $200. Right. You know, it's like, all right, let's fucking figure this out. Right, right, right.

They're like, you're a human being. Yeah. Like, I can respect your humanity. Yeah. And I feel like that's lacking in a lot of business structure. You know, it's like, well, what the fuck, dude? What are we doing if we're not helping each other out? Yeah.

You said it right. The realest one in the room. I'm the woke bully, bitch! There we go. All right. That's going to do it for this week's weekly Zeitgeist. Please like and review the show
