I didn't think that the careers of Ted Kennedy and Eminem overlapped, but I guess they really did. It's amazing. They did, right? Weird. Weird. On spaghetti on your shirt. Are you sick already? I don't really thought about it, but they kind of have a...

A little bit, yeah. The Kennedy thing and the M&M thing are not so far away. Bombs are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy, this vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti. Yeah, I'm never going to not hear it now, so thank you for that. Yeah, the, the, uh... Yeah, I believe that this country, blah, blah, blah, I can't do it right. I don't know how to do it. Hey, good morning, everybody.

It's good to see you. I can't believe it's the 16th. What's that about? That's weird. Golly, right? The second half. We're on the bottom half. Yeah.

Are we a year from that earthquake yet? When did that Salt Lake earthquake happen? Oh, yeah. In a weird way, we're sort of like, that gave us PTSD a little bit. Because it was like pandemic and then bam, like the biggest earthquake I've ever sat through. Right. Stuff was just starting to close down today a year ago here in Colorado is when, the governor said yeah we're closing restaurants today we don't want you gathering and

thus began my love affair with door dash grubhub yep there you have it uh um uber eats yeah your best friends in the world uh 5.7 magnitude happened on the 18th so i still have a couple of days until the anniversary of the uh wow two days until the anniversary oh so is the day after um st patrick's day you guys had your earthquake yeah Yes, it was all... You were just cleaning up the corned beef and cabbage. Curse of the Irish. That's what it was.

That's right. Claire, we're going to be having corned beef and cabbage tomorrow, which I guess is just every day for you guys there. If you're German, you call it Corned Beth. I've heard. That's what I've heard. Corned Beth. Yeah, I have a friend who speaks German,

and he always used to tell me the corned beef was Corned Beth. Corned beef. Yeah. You like the Corned Beth? No, it's not. I don't know why. Not both. And it may be wrong, and he may have lied to me,

back in 1998. I don't know. It's entirely possible, but that's when he told me. Have you ever had, have you ever had Bougignon? No, I've had, or have I?

No, I've never had Buf Borgian Young or beef Bougain Young or however you say it. I've never had that, but I've had some of that beef stroganoff, Brian, I've had some of that fancy dish, you know?

Well, yeah, I mean, who hasn't? Yeah, beef stroganoff. Wall Stroganoff, yes. Hell of a thing. we had chicken stroganoff once that was bad don't do that don't have chicken stroganoff wouldn't recommend it uh it's not quite the same stick with the b you got to pronounce it's biff it's b with that the um the o and the e that are jammed together to make one letter yeah so biff stroganoff bif stroganoff yeah biff stroganoff too biff stroganoff i don't know that's how they

probably would say it if this guy wasn't lying i'm telling you he had german heritage and family and stuff, unless he was lying to me. Andrew, if you're out there listening, you may have lied to me. Now it's all coming out. Well done. Oh, here we go. Actually, PCP crumb found, um...

No, a chat person did? No. Uh, English, German corn, but cheap... Here, I'll play it. So, corned beef. Oh, it looks like it said the same, but here we go. Yeah. Uh, whoops, I don't have the audio on.

Hold on. Konged beef. Kond beef? canned beef Well, let's see what Oh, it deleted it Oh, it's had this Golused

Converted me saying Oh, it deleted it I didn't mean that to happen Oh, it deleted it I didn't know I was picking my voice up Freaking Google Translate Well anyway, we learned something there

Thanks, Germany I think we did, did we? No, we learned nothing. Have we learned nothing? We learned that Eminem and Ted Kennedy could be related. Yeah, that's what we've learned. All right, check this out. We got an email.

I have to read this because it's weird. We get weird emails, all right? Yes, we do. Yes, we do. This might be one of my favorites because I just don't know what to make sense of it or how to make sense of it. Okay. This came from somebody named La Grande. Now, before you laugh at that name, I know someone named Le Grand.

This is definitely not that person. Yeah. But I know somebody named Le Grand. That's French for the Grand. Yeah, the Grande. The Grande. The Grand Day. That's what you get tickets to see the Grand Day in concert.

She's performed. Ariana La Grande. Yeah, La Grande. So here you go. This is about comics. I've been talking a lot about comics. I've been reading both, you know, D.C. and Marvel stuff again and digging into some Indies and just having a real, for me anyway, I'm having a real, what's the word? Renaissance right now.

Renaissance? Yeah. Just can't stop reading comics. Every night I read comic books and I love them. and I started reading that just the first issue because the rest isn't out yet but that black king business

with the symbiote king coming to earth and fighting the Avengers and the X-Men and everything and humans and all that yeah like everyone's working together to fight off this dude and it's pretty good

so I mean I'm only one issue in but it's pretty good that's cool that's cool I need to get there's a few things that have been stacking up that I need to read there was the

all the stuff X-Men stuff that happened after the Powers of X. Oh, House of X, Powers of X, all that stuff. House of X powers of 10 or whatever it was.

Now, is that when, that's all when Xavier started wearing the dumb helmet with the giant X on it, right? That's when that started. Do we have that wrong? I thought that was, I thought that was back when the Phoenix power came back

and gave five of them Phoenix powers. Oh, okay. Like Scott Summers' magic. um who all had the phoenix powers uh did Xavier I could be wrong he just got a new helmet then that was his yeah okay I mean you're not talking about Cerebro are you no no no no he's been wearing that business forever well I don't know is it separate there's a biggest like a walking around helmet yeah like a walking around helmet it's like a black ball

and then a big X across it and you can't you don't see his eyes anymore oh uh well Scott's been wearing one of those has Xavier been wearing one too now uh I thought so. They were calling him Charles last night. Oh, okay. I assume it was it. I am not familiar with some of the stuff leading up to that whole business, but apparently in this Black King thing, they've carried that forward.

Yeah, there it is right there. Okay. Yeah. And he's just sort of walking out of it. Yeah, it's a new version of Cerebro, a helmet that Xavier wears constantly making him a sort of hard drive of the world's mutants and allowing the X-Men to resurrect the fallen with their memories. Mark and Mark and Burr. All right.

So he's got some. Yeah. There you go. I haven't seen the, uh, um, this new helmet get introduced. That's kind of crazy, right? It's weird. Yeah. He's also got little, um, pop sockets on there too. Yeah. But it makes him look like a little kid. He doesn't look like it, you know, bald. Why does you have pop sockets on there? I don't know. It's got a got to hook stuff in, man. That's what Xavier does. It's like a little happy face and a little rainbow thing and, uh, all right. There's pogs in there. It's all in

Pog form. It's pretty good. Anyway. All right. Well, I guess I need to catch up on that. Yeah. Give that a read. Anyway, so we get this email about comics because they're, you know, again, we talk about them frequently. And this person, the Grand, says, I'm going to read this verbatim. All right. Okay. All right. You both read many comic books. Okay. So far, so good.

Okay. So far, yeah. You more than me, but yes. You all should read the porno comic books that they have. There is, there is, oh yeah, there is some good stuff. I'm sorry, there is some good D stuff. You put a D in front of stuff. Oh, no, well, D stuff. I didn't think of that. That's not good.

That could be a whole different thing. Yeah. Anyway, there is some good D stuff there and might be something you would like reading when you read it. That's my favorite part. Might be something you like reading when you read it. Yeah, I like that part. My favorite iOS called, I think you meant is. Yeah, I'm sure he did because, yeah.

My favorite is called The Hiding Place. Have you heard of these? They can be found. Thank you, and your jokes are funny, too, LeGrand. I don't know what to make of this guy's email, except I'm not looking up the hiding place. And not really my bag. Go for it, Brian.

Can you go ahead. I'm not Googling that. I think I'm finding something totally different because this is a 1970s, made by Spire Christian. And it's a comic. Spire Christian comics, yep. Oh, yeah, look at that.

1973, Spire Barber Christian, based on the inspirational book about her internment and a concentration camp. Yeah, this is probably a different thing. I don't think this is the book, yeah. How interesting, yeah, this is... Do I have safe search on? Never. Come on.

here's here i mean you're talking to here my question is back in the day when i would go to a comic book shop they always had all the mainstream comics everywhere and then back up a bind behind the shelf behind the dude was stuff that looked like you know the dirty birdies and i don't even know what they were called but they were like dirty comics and no one ever dared order those because you'd have to talk to a guy to do it and nobody wants to do that right exactly the uh yeah I'll tell you, the only one I ever remember from that area was Crazy Cat. It was like an R-crumb-looking deal. And I just remember really weird, gross nudity.

And I'm not just talking to like, oh, I'm young, nudity is gross. I'm talking about like weirdly drawn. Oh, Fritz the Cat. Fritz the Cat is what I'm thinking of, yes. Oh, Fritz. Yeah, famously Fritz the Cat was a. Dirty. And that was R. Crum, wasn't it?

I thought it was. Maybe it was. Yeah, I think that was. The cat. But it was, I just remember, like, that, uh, that weird R. Crum style of how everything he draws kind of has a, has a level of gross to it. The nudity was no exception. It was just as gross. Oh, Robert Crum, yeah, that was him. Yeah.

Okay. Is he still alive? Hold on. Oh, no, I thought he died. He has to be dead. He has to be dead. He has to be dead. He has to be dead.

He's still alive. Weird. Still alive. Wow, okay. Weird. No, we're thinking of Harvey P. Car died as a American Spunder came out. Oh, you know what? That's, yeah, that's who I'm thinking of is Harvey P. Carr. Anyway, so that was all I knew of that world. And I have to assume that, like, in Reddit alone, it's probably just, like, why would you go?

Nobody goes to comic book stores to get a dirty comic, right? It's all the internet is your dirty comic. Yeah. But the internet provides, as well. what I'm saying you get what you need there right so I guess I'm going to let's see I'm going to I'm going to add the word I may regret this unusual hiding place maybe that's what he's talking oh maybe he I mean his his clarity in the email was not exactly the most stellar I've seen let's see here um he said iOS instead of his for example that's right exactly yeah

Yeah, that could be it. I'm not seeing anything. I'm looking at PDFs and, but this could be, this could be the... All right. Well done. There, LeGrand.

We'll not be reading your comic. Anna Cricketow is a bunch of arrows going up. Is it just the internet is your dirty comic? Is that what you're agreeing with? I think that's what he's saying. Yeah. The internet is your dirty comic. Yeah.

And that's true. All right. Robert Crom, age 77, still lives in Philadelphia. Still hanging out. Great. And now I'm going to get recommendations on Pinterest about this bullshit. Well, I don't know. Pinterest is usually pretty low-key, right? They don't... It is. By the way, yes, Don of X is the series that came out after House of X and Powers of X. And is where you see Professor X's mobile cerebral is walking around Cerebro.

Right. It's just a ball. with an X on it and it bugs me just a ball with an X on it yeah it's not my favorite thing but hold on how come he's walking I miss that too how come he's a mobile dude now how come he's not in his chair oh is he well because he is walking in the

thing I'm reading he's walking around he's by he um you know who knows I don't know comic books man they just I think he was walking around in House of X powers of X and he was walking around before that so whatever happened that got him and round was, um, took place before any of that.

I could see that. Okay. For some reason, my, there we go. My mixer. All I had to do is put this tea down and my mixer decided to go off and be a left ear problem. Anyway, we're fine now. Also, I'm getting used to the slime. Scott, what are you talking about, you would say to that statement?

What are you talking about is what I said? Well, here's what I'm talking about. We had to get a water softener because our plumber said, if you don't, you're going to have problems. Uh, the house is already 10 years old or whatever. you're going to have issues with your pipes if you don't soften that water up, son, he basically said. Oh, really? Okay. And so we got a, because we got, we got the hard water here.

Yeah. And as a kid, that. Good for getting the soap off you in the shower. Oh, yeah, for sure. I like to put the hard water. I like that too. And that's, and that brings me to my point. I don't know if I'm, I'm getting used to the slimy new sensation of soft water,

but I'm not entirely there yet. It feels a little bit like I'm bathing in, in slime. Like you've got a coating A slip and slide coating Are you still using the Nibia showerhead? Yes Or just switch back, okay Been great

Yeah and that one already does Yeah we love ours too But that one already Is your low flow business Right So if you're combining that with the slime Of a water softener Holy cow

You're Yeah you're part amphibian at this point I'm slippery when wet is what I'm saying So Right. I'm a Bon Jovi album from 1987. But yeah, like it's weird. I'm just not used to it. I'm getting used to it, but it's just going to take me a bit here. And everyone else here is loving it, Taylor or Carter and Kim Love it. They're just, oh, yeah, freaking, this is so refreshing and this and that. I'm like, really? Because I feel like I'm in a booger. I feel like I'm showering in a booger. Just a big booger, you know? I feel like I'm in a big booger. Yeah. That's how it feels. So I couldn't do it. I've stayed in hotels where. they have soft water and they and they use um probably have a water softener yeah and i don't think i could do it i don't think uh i hated it then i don't think i don't think i can do it here at home well the reason you want it is because to save your pipes yeah because your pipes get like all

corroded in there and that that flooding we had was a direct result of of hard water buildup and so so i'm gonna i'm i'm that's the only reason we're doing it'll take the pipe damage for behind Alex. I would much rather spend the 50 grand to replace my plumbing than the deal with a little bit of slime. A little bit of slime. No, I understand. Well, maybe not. It does take a while to get used to, though.

So I'm not, you're not wrong, and I don't know how well I'm doing. But anyway, I'll live in a bugger a little longer, let people know how it goes. And, uh, it's my favorite Paul Simon album was the boy in the booger. Oh, isn't that great? That was really good. It's too bad Garfunkel wasn't around for that one. that's right because he's kind of a bugger that guy all right moving on uh we're going to do some news today we've got jury coming up and uh we're going to talk to him about he got a vaccine i guess

i didn't know this oh he did did he yeah he got the j and jay the johnson and johnson oh so he's a one doser he's a one doser uh real deal closer and uh we'll see we'll get i'm thinking i'm just gonna move to a different state because every other state seems everybody else seems to be getting it. Yeah, I'm a little surprised. Plus, he's like 10 years younger than us or something. So I don't know. I don't know how he got lines up until midnight tonight, though, because they say on the 17th here in Colorado is when you can start making appointments for Friday. So I'm treating it like I'm going to a Grateful Dead concert. And I'm staying up for tickets. It's like Black Friday. And I won that big screen LG TV. Yeah. 4K. Yep. You're going to BlizzCon, whether they like it or not. Right. Exactly. Yeah. We're going to snipe those tickets.

Yeah, so that'd be really cool. We've talked about this before, but if you've got an appointment on Friday, I have an appointment on Friday. It would be so cool for us to be, get the other on the same day and compare and contrast our results. Dual jabbers is what we'd have going there. Right, right. Kind of what the show is. It's just dual jab. That's right.

It's an hour and a half of jib jab every day starring two jabbers. Yep, two jabbers, one cup. All right. Moving on. So we're going to do the news now. and we'll do all of this stuff later. In the news is sponsored by you'll find quantity in our corner.

All right, it's the news, and it's brought to you by. But boy, does that corner stink. America's Next Top Podcaster, Episode 3 went live today. You'll hear the results from the challenge where we gave our contestants the challenge to create investigative podcasts, and you can hear those investigative podcasts also on the stream, see what you think,

and then listen to the elimination episode, episode where even though some of it has been, apparently some of it has been taken out because it just got dark. Yeah, it did get dark. A lot of it is still in. I'm glad. I'm glad.

You want to give the, you want that raw meat on the table, man. You don't want to. You need some raw meat. You just don't want all the raw meat. Nobody wants all the raw meat. But it, man, it is a good episode. And somebody that I really wasn't expecting to go home as

early in the competition as they did went home and it was it was a bummer it was a bummer i'll go on the record as a judge on and and having been on that episode i hated that episode i hated it yeah it doesn't mean it's not going to be entertaining and that people aren't going to enjoy it they will yeah it's very entertaining and it's what you tune in well yeah it's part of what you tune in to america's next top podcaster for but uh yeah that's right iichore bobby frank and Bougar. What are you going to do, buddy? He told us that name, not me. I didn't make it up. Yep, yep, exactly. You regret. You'll rue the day. You told us that, Bobby. Roo. Rue. Rue. Mclanahan.

Rue the day. Here's a story about an ape. It's about a monkey. Really an ape. An ape and monkey are not the same. So I'll just say ape. No, they're not. No, they're not. Oh, I think Bobby, by the way, speaking of Bobby, I think our science segment this week is going to be about the 65,000 pounds or gallons of sperm that we're going to go to the moon. Did you hear about that? We'll send a bunch of sperm to the moon. Are we trying to impregnate the moon? I think so. We want moon babies. I don't know what's happening up there, but more on that Thursday. Hey, Andrew, we're going to impregnate the moon. So here's your...

I'm not sure that's a thing that we can do, Maury. I'm not sure that moon will take to it, if you know what I'm saying. All right, go ahead. Anyway. The great apes out there, the big monkeys, the big boys. they had to give some COVID vaccines to some in the San Diego Zoo, the famous San Diego Zoo, because they had an outbreak there of COVID-19 amongst the apes.

Oh, no. Yeah, yeah. Vaccine of the apes. It was a super spreader event, a primate super spreader event. Yeah, I mean, just imagine those guys, they're always pushing their butts up against. Yeah, there you go.

They're always putting their butts up against the windows. Oh, you mean the, oh, you're talking about apes. All right. Apes. Wait, are we still talking about the Trump rally? Now I'm not sure. I don't know what I'm talking about now. So confusing.

Anyway, five bonobos and four orangutans or orangutans. How do you say it? What do you do just normally? Orangutan. I say orangutan. I do too. Look, we're white guys who grew up in white neighborhoods. Well, yeah.

But we also don't, there's no G at the end. So people who pronounce it orangutang, stop it. Stop it. And nobody around... It's also not ying and yang. It's yin and yang. Let's clear that one up while we're at it. It's true.

Oh, that's a good point. How do I say that? You probably say yin yang. Ying yang. Yeah, yeah, I say yin. Oh, well, maybe not. No, I say yin. I said yin, yin, yin.

I say it fast. First time you said it, you said ying yang. Ying yin yin yin, yin, yin, y'n, y'n, you're the... Yin yang. Yeah, that's how I do it. with a yin. I'm sure I do it. I never go ying yang. That's for crazy people. There were times where you were just saying it where it sounded like you were saying ying yang. Well, yeah. I mean, that's what I'm saying. If you run them together, I think they do. Oh, you're trying to say it

to see if that. Yeah, if you say it together, like rapidly, you're going to get accused of the ying and the ying and the yin. But if somebody said to me, yin yang. Yeah. Someone said to me, hey, I guess it's that lie right after the end, yin yang. It almost means it's not like you're saying Which is why probably people say it, because that's what they're hearing. Anyway, the Great Apes, check this out. Nine of these beasts, nine of these big, formidable, beautiful animals have been given experimental COVID vaccine. It's an experiment because animals are different. Their physiology is different, so you've got to be different.

Anyway, they had an outbreak in a troop of guerrillas. Now, did you know that that's what that was called? Yeah, yeah, the collective of gorillas. I didn't know that. I thought it was something else. I didn't know. A troop. Oh, man, I'm sensing a really fun, a fun game sometime.

Not a Babel Royale, but a animal collectives. Yeah, like flock, murder. Yeah, a pod, a herd, herd, all that stuff. I mean, herd, you think of herd from almost everything. Parliament, one of my favorites. Oh, Parliament of Owls. Yeah, Parliament of Owls. It was a great Batman spinoff.

Anyway. That kind of is, actually. They had the thing, right? Like in Gotham City was the... The underground... Oh, the Cordovals, that's right. Cordovals was awesome. That Scott Snyder run on that comic was so good.

Oh, my gosh. They better make... That needs to make it... Well, there's talk that some of that will make it into this movie coming up. Oh, really? It's very good. That's a really cool story.

The Batman movie or the... Batman movie? The Pattinson. Yeah, the Robert, the sexy vampire. Fire by Batman. Not the thing that's coming up this week, not the Snyder cut where he's adding a bunch of stuff. No,

the Snyder cut's good? Is that from the people who saw it when HBO accidentally leaked it last week? Oh, I don't know. I don't know if these are pre-releases or who these people are, but they were like, some of them are critics who just saw advanced screenings, and they're like, I've seen the first one and it was abysmal, and I've seen this, and it's a complete turnaround

and the best DC movie ever made. So I don't know what to make of that. I mean, I need to see it myself. I got to see it myself, but... That's a low bar to get it. Well, no, I take that back. As you say, it's mostly a low bar to get over. But Wonder Woman, first Wonder Woman was really good.

Yeah, it was great. I think that currently held the title. But as far as, you know, yeah, other... Well, if we're talking recent DC movies. Like, I mean, we're talking Nolan movies. They're better than all of them. Oh, well, yeah, if you include the Nolan movies, I guess I'm just thinking of the DC Universe movies.

Everything since, um, was Superman Returns? Man of Steel Right Man of Steel was the first DCU proper I think well Do they even call it that Like do they have their

Do they have like a Do they call it the DCU A figgy thing going Where they're like All right this is our new It seems like it would be pretty Derivative Like you know

They'd be accused of ripping off Marvel yet again What's really frustrating to me Is the comics themselves And they're directing animation stuff is so good. It's so good. All of it is so freaking good. And it's the exact opposite of Marvel, where the animated stuff for Marvel is just, it's borderline unwatchable. It's garbage. Most part. Most of it I hate. And there's a couple of

exceptions, but in the DC stuff, it's all good. Even their worst stuff is pretty good. Like, I don't know why this is so weird over there. It's so freaking weird. Yeah, it looks like they call it the DC extended universe, right? The DC EU. All right. So you have to. spend euros yeah and um uh yeah man of steel batman v superman suicide squad justice league aquaman have you seen aquaman no still i haven't seen it i'm seeing it if i'm gonna watch shazam i haven't seen shazam either i look there there's about four or five comic book movies that are still on this list of stuff like i got to watch ant man and was first and you call yourself a comic book fan i don't think i'm gonna get around you have to be my latex

salesman. I'm not going to watch Dark World. I'm not getting around to it. It's just not going to happen. What? I don't have time. I don't have time. Maybe don't watch. I don't know. All right. I take it back. For a third time. That'd be like 12th time. But here's what I would say. It's not the time. It's the interest.

Dark World looks, I have no interest. Like, where's my interest in that? It is the, it is the source of the the red infinity gem the which one was that the

the red hot gem the red hot gem yeah the one you dark world is not nearly as bad as you're making you're wanting to

well everyone's I have to all I can go off all my friends they all tell me it's the worst MCU movie that sounds bad

well it is but again that's a you know when you think of all the MCU movies being great This is the one that's kind of the least great of the great movies.

I just can't get around to it. I don't know. I didn't think it was that, I don't think it was that bad. I can't believe Taz the Man says Dark World, he enjoyed more than Ragnarok. I thought Ragnarok is one of my favorite Marvel of the MCU movies. Oh, yeah, by far for me. I love that movie. The First Guardians of the Galaxy and, uh...

Yeah, I like all that stuff. Yeah, Free Ranger says Age of Ultron is worse than Dark World. Well, I won't disagree with that because I really disliked it. You didn't like that with it. No, I didn't. I like it for some of the origin stuff we got out of Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver, what the hell we call them in that. Freaking, and I love the concept of Ultron and all that stuff.

Yeah. It's all that stuff. It's all great, but it's just a bad movie. It's not good. Yeah, all right, all right. Skip Dark World, but freaking watch Ant Man and Wasp. and Captain Marvel you've seen? Nope.

Captain Marvel got to watch too. Get to those. At least do those. Yeah, Kim and I were just talking. We're like, we should catch up on the ones we haven't seen. And I said, yeah, we should. Then people stop giving me shit about it. And while you're at it, watch Shazam.

All right. And then Parasite. With Chuck. And then Parasite. And I'll watch the vow. We have a deal. All right. We're done.

Oh, yeah. Someone wants you to watch the vow. Who was that? I know. It was Gabby in an email. I responded to her and said, I'll do it if Scott will do it If he watches Parasite, I'll watch the Val

Yeah, the vow Although now you need to watch Parasite and Minari As like your Korean smothered with kimchi double feature And I assume Minari is Not all Korean, right? It's not all subtitles, it's in America. Right, not all subtitled, there's some English in there But probably

60% subtitles. Okay. Stephen Ewan is actually Vietnam, I want to say? Is the Vietnamese? I think so? I don't think he's Korean. But then...

Korean. Korean American actor, according to what he did you? That last name is unusual Korean. That would be a... I mean, maybe it's a mixed family or something, but... Maybe. Let's see. He was born in Seoul.

His father was an architect in South Korea. His mother was an alien. There we go. Oh, okay. An alien. That makes sense. No, it doesn't say what his... with his mother's um but they really quickly moved to detroit and opened a chain of beauty supply

stores like you do like you do i mean that's what you do in detroit yeah that's what i'd do we'd get in there yeah anyway they gave apes a bunch of shots is what happened they gave these apes well we still haven't even gotten out of the first story yeah i love it it's uh they had coughs runny noses and lethargy and that's how they knew and then they tested them and the point is the reason you want to do this is you don't want another variant jumping from the animal kingdom to us because that's worse. That's how

this all got started. Mutates and exactly. Listen, I saw Planet of the apes. I know how these things start. Yeah, we know how this starts and ends. You know, like, freaking what was the name of the main ape? Granius Simon.

Cecil. Seesle. Caesar. Caesar. Caesar. Caesar. Cecil. Cicel. Hey, I was closer than whatever you said. No, no, no, I'm not laughing at you. I just think it's an amazing name for an ape I'm supposed to get excited about, you know.

Cecil, the ape. Oh, I'm Cicel. I'm going to be starting this revolution with the apes and stuff. Oh, I love that. I love those movies. That's the other reason I'm excited about the new Batman movie because that's that director and he's great. That guy makes great movies. Yeah.

All right. Here's a story about a, it's a Denver connection. Denver connection, literal Denver connection. Yeah, quite the actual connection here. A man peed on his seat and hit a flight attendant on a Denver bound plane after refusing to wear a mask. Wow. You think with the refusal to wear a mask that he's a completely sane and down-to-earth person. But the peeing on a seat and hitting a flight attendant would say otherwise.

Yeah, what's the opposite of a sane and down-to-earth person? An insane Wackadoe, I believe is the clinical term. He's up in the air. A Cannon City, man. Is that? I don't know. Canyon.

Canyon City, yeah. Oh, it says Canon with a with an umlaught over it. Uh-huh, a Tilda. Yeah. So it's pronounced Canyon? Canyon. Oh, I've never seen that before.

And with the, and with the Tilda over it is a, is an Enya. Oh. Not a, not a 90s new age singer. Gotcha. From Ireland. I'm trying to think Well, Pena Boulevard here What's another

What's another word that's got an enia? Help me out, chat room. What's a more common word that's got an Enya in it? Michael Pena. Hispania is a good example. Michael Pena. Senorita. There you go.

And Signor. Oh, I love it when you call me. You don't pronounce it, senor. Hey, senor. Sonor Welcome to Welcome to Raleighbarto's Mexican restaurant Senor and Sonoritas

Yeah, Senorata It's like Peggy Hill saying this Oh, jalapeno, yeah, there you go There's an even better example That N with Little Tilda is pronounced Nia Little Tilda is my favorite animated series on Hulu All right

Any way, Canyon City Canyon City man struck a flight attendant and urinated on a seat. It doesn't tell us what order of that happened. But anyway, on a Denver-bound Alaska Airlines flight after refusing to wear a face mask according to an arrest affidavit,

Landon Pierre Greer, age 24. Oh, you dumb, little punk. You need to freaking get this out of your system, buddy. He's charged with interfering with a flight crew, if convicted, he faces up to 20 years in prison and a $250,000 fine. You dumbass. you're like five years into your legal

status and you're already Fing up so hard So flying from Alaska Or I guess a Denver bound Alaska flight But Alaska Airlines but doesn't say he was coming from Alaska Yeah not sure where he was Seattle there we go Yeah It says it took place on Alaska Airlines flight

1474 from Seattle there it is to Denver Airline staff Asgrier to watch sorry wear a face mask eight times. Eight to ten, it says. This is required by the company. Greer initially ignored the flight attendant, but then struck her arm. The hell. Yeah, no arm striking. What are we doing here?

The U.S. Attorney's Office said in a statement later, two other flight attendants responded to a call button that had been pressed by a passenger or reportedly said, Greer was urinating in his seat area. Yeah, F this guy. Class act. Yeah. One of the flight attendants saw Greer peeing and asked him to sit down. You, I just want to punch him. some of the nuts. Oh, so he stood up to pee?

Yeah, stood up to pee. Like a seat was a toilet. What an a hole. I hope they made him sit in it. Sit in your urine. I think they'd make you do that, right? Because you can't stand up for the flights that they're like, look, you peed. You made your bed.

Now you sit in it. Well, I mean, here's a photo of the guy. He looks like a totally, you know, agreeable individual, this Landon Perry Greer. Tell the drugs hit. According to the affidavit of the flight attendant Then Observed Passenger Greer Here's the quote I love this Quote

Observed Passenger Greer Sitting in his seat with his penis Out of his pants And she told him to put his penis Back in his pants He responded I have to pee Passenger also reported

That Greer urinated on a paper bag She was carrying Oh man Here's some other information About Landon Perry Greer He was 18 years old and his mother discovered items she did not think belong to him and called authorities in February 2015. In the same month, the Canyon City Police Department was investigating a series of local church burglaries in Canyon City.

Church burglar. He's a church burglar. He's a church burglar. Let's see. Is there a picture of him? On the link? There's not. Oh, I put a link in the chat room.

Here, I'll put it in our Discord. Oh, there it is. All right. Cool. There you go. There's a photo of the dude. Oh, yeah. There he is. That looks like a guy that might pee on a thing.

He does look like this looks like a guy that is, the airline was not the first seat that he's peed on. No. He has peed on some seats. Let me tell you what. This man has peed on some seats. Wisconsin mayor in the news. Wisconsin thinking they're Detroit suddenly because this mayor wants a giant robocop statue in their city. Who doesn't? Well, it should be everyone but Detroit shouldn't. You know what I mean? Like, what's the point of us?

Yeah, right, exactly. But this guy really wants them in central Wisconsin City is making a play for a giant Robocop statue after a Detroit museum rejected it. Oh, so they want the rejected statue. The mayor of Stevens Point. We'll take it. We like Robocop. He wants to place the 11-foot statue in front of the city's police station or in a park to honor actor Peter Weller, a Stevens Point native. Oh, well, that kind of makes sense.

Oh, Peter Weller is from Stevens Point. Mm-hmm. He's from Mr. Crazy Neighbor. Dave is from Stevens Point. Oh, no way. That's his hometown. So he and Peter Weller. Peter Weller's probably what, like 25 years, his senior or something, but...

Probably, I mean, he's, yeah, he's about 55, 54, Crazy Neighbor is. And Peter Weller is easily 63, 64. Maybe, maybe more even. Maybe even older. Yeah. I like Peter Weller a lot He's awesome Oh yeah he's 73 wow

Okay I did not realize he's that much older He saw him in last year in a COVID commercial talking about the science Oh trusting the science if I remember correctly Really? That's interesting I liked him in Star Trek Because he's a sign like he's got a Oh is he a science guy

He's a science guy yeah He's got his PhD From UCLA He knows he's gonna make a naked lunch. You know what I'm saying. He was in that. Well, I thought he was a scientist. I guess he's a, he's, his PhD is in Italian Renaissance art history. Oh, wow. I mean, you know, whatever your PhD is, you have a PhD. Good for you. But for some reason I thought that, uh, that he was pitching the science because he

had a science background. Well, he was Robocop. So it's pretty substantial. He was great. He was one of the most redeemable facts or factors in that third Star Trek J.J. Abrams movie. Third, sorry, second. I like the third. But the second one, which was problematic in some ways, had Peter Weller as like a high up in the, in Starfleet. And he was a bad guy, right? He didn't go, but he went bad? Yeah, he was the bad guy. Yeah, he was great. Peter Weller's in the film. He's going to be the bad guy. He's a secret bad guy. That's what he always is, yeah. Unless you're Robocop, then you're the good guy. Maybe I am thinking Dolphron, Lendgren, who's an engineer.

Yeah. Is that true? Hold on. Dolf Lundgren is an engineer. That's amazing. That's great. Does he look at a thing and say, he wants to reverse engineer it?

Does he look at it and say, I'm going to break you? Does he say that? I will break you. That would be great if he did. And then I would fix you. All right. Anyway,

I think I'm finding the, I'm seeing if this is the, the Peter Weller video. No, where is? is it? It was a video that came out last year while we were all in quarantine, but I don't remember this. All right. Well, I won't slow things down. As we learned, when you're on a show, you keep things moving, Scott. Yeah. No, I like that we break a whole bunch of rules all the time on here. Every rule, we can break. We break. Yeah. While we tell the contestants not to, we go ahead and do that here

all the time. It's pretty great. There's a lesson in there somewhere. Anyway, because these guys rejected it was back in 2012 by the way that this was all proposed and it looked like the city was going to do it but the city said no lame lame is it yeah it just seems like a no brainer put a friggin robicop

statue in your city yeah and if I'm the Wisconsin people I would be I want one too okay I started this article thinking ah whatever you guys get to make up your own thing but now I'm kind of for you getting it somebody should get that that statue and look at it and say up or murpy

when they walk by it. That's right. Well, now it'll say, Go Park, go. Yeah. Please drop your rubber. All right. Let's move on to this Texas man.

This is our final story. It's all over the country today. Yeah, we're all over the place. It's fine. King, Denver man, Wisconsin mayor. You know, it makes me wonder if jury, well, we'll ask him today.

But when he gets a shot in California, he's about to move to Texas. He's got to get a second shot in Texas. Well, no, he did J&J, so a single shot. Oh, so that's right. show. We talked about that. Yeah. So my thinking is, if he gets in California,

did he get it quicker than he would have if he was already in Texas, is my question? Or would he have to wait more there? Because I don't know. I don't know why California is getting him so young. Because, you know, 30, what is he, 37, eight, whatever he is? Whatever young, freaking kid age? Just to...

He's younger than 40? For whatever reason, I thought he hit 40. Oh, no. His hair hit 40 like eight years ago. Right? I mean, That's missed me what I'm thinking. Yeah, his hair has accelerated age, age growth. And he himself, I think, is still sub-40. All right, Texas man drove a BMW dealership loaner car to rob a bank

and then tried to use the stolen money to buy the BMW car. Yeah. This is the way you do it. You get a loaner. Nice. Yeah. Get the loaner, go rob a bank, buy it, buy the loaner. Then buy BMW.

you. Yeah. It's the circle of life. Exactly. Let's see. It says here he may, oh, he was sentenced to 20 years in federal prison. Geez, so he's busted. According to court documents, Eric Dionne Warren, age 50, was in the process of finalizing the purchase of a BMW in the summer of 2019. When Warren went to a bank, walked up to the teller, 50-year-old then put a bag, I don't know, they keep telling us he's 50, put a bag from the fast food restaurant that he was carrying and a note to the counter. The note read, this is a effing robber. Play with me and die. Jeez. Jeez.

Like, you need to write an effing robbery on the piece of paper? Right. Or do the play with me and die part, even. It's pretty rough. It says, I want $10,000 and $50 and $100 bills now, and you got one minute or I will kill you, unquote. After showing the teller of the note, Warren pulled out what looked like a handgun and said,

I ain't playing around. I only want $150. I'd like to think he said fitties. Fitties. Fitties. Huddies and Fitties. Just so no one can take him serious. Authority said 15 minutes after the robbery took place, Warren then went back to the dealership in the loaned vehicle. And according to employees, began waving around cash.

He entered the dealership's finance office and attempted to finalize the purchase of a BMW by giving the dealership three grand in cash as a down payment. Well done. Well done. So this is great. So we got the loaner. Is it like a test drive? Like he was going on on a test drive and decided to do this. I think so.

Like when they say loaner, normally what they mean is your other car is in for repair so they give you one to get by. But I think what happened here is he was just like test drive in a car. But don't they have to take somebody with you? I don't know how that works. Sometimes. Sometimes they let you just take the test drive. You leave some sort of collateral, but you can take the car with you as a test drive. A fragment of your soul, a horror crux.

Yeah, I think so, yeah. Wouldn't be your driver's license because you kind of need that in the car. That's true. Well, anyway, good luck to him in his 20 years in the hokey. Pokey. Pokey. Hokey? Hokey. Hokey? Hokey, pokey. The pokey. What am I thinking of the hokey pokey? You're thinking of the hokey pokey. Oh, okay. There's the hokey pokey, which is a dance.

Hanky-panky is the third thing. All right. It all worked out. We're going to take a break when we come back. Mr. Justin Robert Young, as before mentioned, be here. We're going to talk about stuff, so stick around, hang around for that. We've got to do a song, though, before that. Did you bring one? I brought one, and this is one that requires some spelling from you, from all of us.

The new single, Johnny and Johnny, from the band Twin Shadow, is available right now. The first Johnny is spelled with an H. The second Johnny is J-O-N-N-I-E. This is a couple that are talked about in the song, kind of like a Frankie and Johnny Robert Palmer kind of thing, or Jack and Diane, John Mellencamp kind of thing. Anyway, this is a lot of fun. This is Twin Shadow and their brand new single, Johnny and Johnny.

This is worst day of anyone's life. Do not talk to me. I need my jazz. This is the morning stream, and I feel fine. All right, we're back. I don't know what. I just heard there in that... It looked like...

So, I found this on YouTube or somewhere, and it was supposedly like some kind of... Like a Sunday school class. No, it was like a classroom with a bunch of kids. And this kid asked the teacher that question, and his answer was, I'd use a condom. It doesn't make any sense. I don't know if it's edited for something or I don't know.

It probably took a question from one part and an answer from a different part, which is great, which is just brilliant. Yeah. We sign us up. We're here for it. Once again, Twin Shadow, the song you just heard, Johnny and Johnny, brand new single from the band Twin Shadow. Nice. It's like the vaccine, Johnny and Johnny. Oh, Johnny.

Yeah, you got the Johnny and Johnny. just the one time. Johnny and Johnny. Yeah, I'll have to go back for two. I kind of wonder if, well, anyway, we may discuss that as well. But first, we got to play this. These are their stories.

Oh, I'm terrible with names. We are speaking to one Justin Robert Young who lives currently in California where he got poked and then he'll be going soon to Texas where he'll be poked in a very different way. I don't know what that means. Well, you know something that I don't know.

No, I made that up. weapons in Texas. It stays there. That's what it does. You don't talk about it. You get in big trouble if you do. No, that's not true. It is Justin Robert Young, though.

Welcome back to the show, Mr. Politics Times 3. Hey, man. What's going on? How you doing, gang? Good. We're real good. Hey, do you know what episode of A&TP hits the feed today? Do you know which famous, infamous season three episode hits?

I don't know. Is it the one where I screwed up the name? No. It's the one. Spoiler alerts for when I screwed up a name. Oh, yeah, that's right. I think that already came out, right? Wasn't that too?

That one already came out. That was the, oh, no, I think that's about to come out. That's the interview. That's the interview one. Yeah. Yeah. No, this is the investigative, uh, investigative, uh, elimination where one player tried to intervene in the elimination process.

Yeah. And you put them back where they belonged. yeah do you remember it was just a little it's a little heated a little heated um yeah i i man i i i'll say it's so much of it uh of this season for me feels like last season because like we're still we're still doing this season like we literally did an episode last night that won't come out for a couple weeks yeah but uh uh that process feels so long ago to me it does feel like to have we go yeah Because that was the beginning of the house process. Like, everything went so fast where I don't even know.

It'd be actually funny to track this. But at the point that we recorded the first episode, if it wasn't that week, it was maybe a week after I had, you know, made it known on the internet that we were going to move from California at some point. this year to Austin with the idea being fall we started looking in earnest around then and that's all throughout America's next top podcaster

which also happened to be when things wound up happening because like things in the home buying process tend to like kind of build up and pool through the week and then like Monday is when people get back to work. and all of a sudden things are happening. So it just so happened that through this season,

I was in increasingly foul moods up to like the stress level was increasing, increasing. Up like two weeks ago. The ending is just going to be nothing but peace and love and I'm going to love everybody. Like literally, in the episode that comes out in a few weeks we recorded last night, I'm like, you guys all did fantastic. You're all great. True. You're all fantastic.

But, yeah, the beginning of this season, I'm a real nasty cut. Yeah. I kind of like how you can track the home buying process through your... Yeah. It sucks. It's really frustrating and annoying and you know that it's frustrating and annoying because it went as fast and as well as it could for us. Yeah. Like we are like a 1% of a 1% of it going great. But unless you are buying like a family house and you can just sell. sign over the papers at grandmas, it blows. Yeah, it's the worst. I do hate doing it. But I'm glad your stuff's all worked out.

Today we're going to talk a little bit about not so much politics, although I think we hit an interesting milestone the other day. It's not really a political thing to say this, but the CDC announced that there did like four and a half million doses in a day, which was like some record for the pandemic. And that seemed good. Yeah. slightly overinflated in that it was like a day and a half of reporting the the the the more and I think impressive way to say it is that we we averaged probably around three million over three days which is which is fantastic we're vaccinating at a a very good level I don't know how you could say that

a country of our size could do a lot better. The other countries that, you know, are larger than us aren't exactly quite as transparent in terms of how they are doing. So we don't really know how to compare ourselves. But, you know, unsurprisingly, the countries that developed the vaccine, namely the United States and the United Kingdom, are doing very well. And then there's Israel, which is just vaccinating like everybody. Yeah, everyone gets a shot. That's the deal. You serve a mandatory military service and a shot. That's those are the rules if you live in Israel. All right. So here's the, here's the big question I had, though, about you and yours. You got the Johnson and Johnson, the one timer. You got it on Thursday. Yes. Well, I guess first of all, just talk about how that went. And did that thing present you with any side effects? Did you struggle with any of it at all in the days after? How did it go? Well, let's start with how I get this vaccine.

All right, yeah. I get this vaccine. In the butt. In the butt. Nope. In the butt, Bob. I got this vaccine because, and now this is going to be just very awkward because of what you said, for a minute you made this awkward.

After an unsolicited text message from my friend Brett. But, yeah, Brett hits me up. Brett Roundsville, the famous Brett Roundsaville, the fantastic. Brett, the Amtrekker Roundsville. Yeah, he's the best. He hits me up and he says, there is a FEMA vaccination pop-up that will be there today and tomorrow. There's an outside chance you could get one today.

there is a high likelihood you could get one tomorrow. Wow. And so I'm like, oh, wow, that's great. And it's Johnson and Johnson, which was something that I was kind of hoping for once they approved it, mostly because I, you know,

if we got, if Ashley or I had gotten the Pfizer or the Moderna with the two-week booster, we're right on the edge of when we're moving. So it's like if anything, had to get rescheduled past that. It would have been a thing. And then we got to figure out, like, can we find another of the same? And it was just a stressful idea.

But the idea of the one shot Johnson Johnson was very, very appealing. It was happening 10 minutes away from our house. And is this a situation where it was like surplus that was going to go bad? They had more than more, okay. This was unqualified from FEMA. They're just shots in arms. they had a couple hundred doses per day they were there for three days uh i found out on day two and that was that so i i get this text at like 1120 i wind up uh you know they're they're saying

that they're only open until noon uh i wind up getting in line at like 1150 Ashley's like you're never going to get it today so i'm not going to go okay Spoiler alert, I get it. It was first come, first serve, right? You're just in a line. First come first serve, but we do find out that they're going to be there tomorrow or the next day, Friday. Yeah. Now, the process is really easy.

I got my card. I got my shot. You know, I had side effects. Like, there was definitely. a fog probably almost like for my money immediately although i also hadn't eaten lunch yet um but like there there was definitely it it felt like i was about to get sick and and i based on talking with other people who got the johnson and johnson vaccine i got very mild side effects very mild side of that's good which now of course i'm going to use is absolutely

proof that I would have totally survived COVID without you know. Right. That's what we do. That's what we do. Well, that's good, though. I'm glad you didn't have anything severe happen. I've talked to people on all three who had very. It just varies. Nobody's the same. No. Some people have real bad three, four day major, basically a flu thing. And it's real bad with fever and everything. And then there's others who are like, yeah, I was a little tired after. And then we got, we have a listener who says, look, if you just run 30 minutes before you get it, and then run 30 minutes after you get it. You'll never get anything. And I never had a single symptom of whatever. And I'm like, well, maybe it was that, but I feel like I don't have

a really good case study to look at to see if your thing worked or not. So, yeah, I don't know. I run 30 minutes every day and I'm not doing that. Get out of here. All right, Jackie Joyner, Cursey. Congratulations. Yeah, if you run 30 minutes before and after anything, it's probably going to be better. Yeah, no, I, I, I, I was running a little hot. I ran a slight fever, but, but it wasn't bad. Ashley, on the other hand, did not get quite as lucky. She, eh, she goes the next morning.

And now she understands that, like, all right, this is a major opportunity. They're definitely open. They, that vaccination center opens at nine. Nine a.m. We get there at 5.30. We believe, based on what I had talked to the guys there the day before, that there are 300 doses. Guess what spot in line? And we know the exact spot in line because she got a sticker because they came out in the line and gave stickers out.

301 All right 301 Scott you got to guess I mean that would be the truly most crazy version of this story

but I'll say 299 250 oh 250 at 530 in the morning and she I picked her up at 1230 in the afternoon

So she was not only there for a while, but also she got the side effects a lot worse than I did, like chills and a high fever that lasted over a couple days. But to be honest, it's like that's the happiest I've ever seen her sick. Like she was thrilled, thrilled to be sick because like even in some weird psychosomatic way, she was like excited that that uh it was working look it's working it's working now yeah that's awesome

like a thematic that's actually just physical yeah it's just a physical thing so we have ours mine schedule for friday brian's aiming for a friday schedule if he can get the midnight ticket thing uh going yep which is so how did yeah so the the advice that would have for anybody here in california is that uh along with the big uh mega vaccination sites apparently there are these FEMA detachments that are just going to neighborhoods and they are just running these clinics where it's like they had when I was there it was like I think 700 doses on Thursday they had 500 doses on Friday when Ashley went. So if you can find whatever, there's got to be a Twitter tracking these. There's got to be a website tracking these. Like here's here's my big a piece of

advice for everybody that is listening right now because I feel like I'm speaking to exactly this audience. If you can hunt for end game opening night tickets, you can find a vaccine. Like we have all spent our lives. We are nerds. We have spent our lives finding rare things on the internet and then standing in line for them. Congratulations. You've been training your whole life to get a vaccine tomorrow. Like, don't wait. Don't wait. And I know that there are a lot of, you know, kind of rules out there in terms of, you know, when things are going to be there.

Look, there are CVSs right now that are vaccinating everybody, that they are allowed to vaccinate. And then they've got leftover doses that are. going to go bad. Yeah. Like that is just a thing. You can find them if you want this. And I would encourage you to want this because all you need to do is look at are, you know, the COVID rates in the UK and the U.S. where we are steadily vaccinating people compared to the EU, some of the countries in the EU,

where not only have they been slower, but now they paused one of their vaccines for, I think, scientifically, dubious reasons their COVID rates are going back up. Yeah. Like that's, that's, that's, if you want that proof,

that's that proof. Like, these things work. They work throughout history. They're working right now. If you are hesitant about it, I can understand. I think you do catch more flies with honey the vinegar.

I don't want to get into a moralistic or, or a shame. thing. I think there's plenty of people out there doing that. All I would say is, I want this thing done as soon as possible, mitigated, as soon as possible. That's why I was excited to do it. And I think that you guys can and should, again, leverage the skills you have learned as over a lifetime of nerddom. Find a thing on the internet and wait in line for it. yeah like that that's i guess it answers my major question is how how you arranged it for us it was just hey we're letting this sage group in now and it hit my range and i went sweet uh sign me up

and we signed up as quick as we could and by the time we started it the forum it was five days later once we finished the forum in other words you know you have to haul ass because these are filling up right so we ended up getting it for friday was supposed to originally think would be today, actually. But Friday, I get the first thing and then the schedule for the next thing. It's the Pfizer I'm getting, which is supposed to be the least problematic of the double-dosers in terms of side effects. So we'll see. I don't know.

Again, everybody's different. Yeah. I did get an email yesterday from, because I really want to, reinforce Justin's advice. Go get the thing. And let's all contribute to lower rates and eradication. Let's do it. Yep. But I got this email the other day from somebody who said, I don't know why they still listen to the show, but somebody so hates me so much. And they wrote and said, hey, I heard

you getting your shot. Just so you know, some lady died of the Moderna vaccine in Utah, like somehow there's some, the fact that she's in Utah. Oh, well, that means everybody will die from the modern of vaccine. Oh, yeah, but only in Utah, apparently. Yeah, that's right. It's a bad Utah variant of the vaccine. He says, not that I'd lose any sleep. The world could use a few less, you know, like he's just a total a hole about this whole thing. Do not listen to those people, don't let the world try to sneak in here and go, look, look,

look, I get vaccine hesitancy, I do. I get that we, we, it's very, very weird that we have spent a year totally uprooting our entire existence out of

caution, right? And then we're going to tell everybody double-time take a vaccine that had one-fifth the normal cycle of testing, right? Yeah. Like, I can understand that. Now, I would say that the true story within

that larger framework kind of explains a lot of it, including how long vaccine testing normally goes and whether or not it necessarily needs to, especially for things that are kind of set up. I think that there's also rightful curiosity at the very least of the fact that the vaccine that you're getting, Scott, is functionally different than the one that I got. What I got is the Jonathan Johnson Johnson vaccine is a traditional vaccine, meaning it's a bit of the virus that your body is adjusting and creating antibodies to. But the Moderna and the Pfizer vaccine are for the first time ever. They are medical miracles.

They are MRI vaccines that doesn't even concern itself with what the virus is in the cellular interactions. It only mitigates against this spike that pokes into your cell. So it takes away the spike. It doesn't care what's inside the spike. Right. Right. Yeah. Like these are these are two.

functionally different things and again we've never had an MRI vaccine part of the reason why or an MRI vaccine for this kind of thing the reason why is because normally the regulation takes so long and at that point by the time that the regulation is

is kind of done the active threat is kind of over this was such a gigantic issue that everything went a lot faster now that being said I'm not here

to convince those that that refuse to be convinced uh via condos that's that's that's your that's your thing that's cool

uh again I don't think I need to add to the chorus of screeching voices about you know the greater good I think that that everybody kind of knows these arguments right what I will say is I don't think it's arguable that it works at this point.

All I would appeal to is beyond politics, beyond morals, beyond, you know, who we want to paint as the good guy and the bad guy. Look at what's happening in the United States and the UK. Look at what's happening in Italy, France, and Germany right now. Yeah. Look at those case rates.

Look at those hospitalization rates. that's a slow vaccine rollout. This is a faster vaccine rollout. Right. So, I mean, I know what team I'm excited I'm on. And I would, and that's all I would, that's all I would say is, is if you have the free time and the inclination to want to find one, even if you are not in whatever age group. that is being serviced right now, there are avenues for you to find it.

I was lucky. I did not hunt for this thing. I got hit up with a friend's text, and I just jumped into action because that was the case. But then again, even if you are hunting, you only got to be right once. Right. Luck favors the bold, as they say.

That's right. So be willing to get in there and get that line going. it's ironic to hear on a political segment we are literally saying put all your politics aside and we're kind of saying do your research and I hate when people say that but but you know go go get it freaking get it there's nothing wrong getting it the reason why I say put your politics aside on this is because you know I was watching a focus group online the other day and it was with a bunch of vaccine hesitant people Republicans largely

and the reason why they were part of like the thing that they were bringing up was that they felt it had become a a that when doctors were talking they were talking from a

political angle or when politicians were talking they were co-opting doctors for political purposes right and I can understand that. I can, I can, and I don't think that that, look, I would consider myself somebody who is just a, my, my sole purpose in life is to help us get to as close to 70% of America vaccinated as possible.

That is the technical, uh, number for herd immunity. I don't know if we're going to get there. We're not at herd immunity on the measles. So I don't think that it needs to get there for the world to go back to a place that's closer to 2019. But I'm saying let's push that number as high as we can. And if part of that is let's downshift out of the super heightened political rhetoric that we have kind of been in on this subject. this subject alone then

I'm happy to do it and I am I am thrilled to do it because that's my only goal is let's get these numbers as high as we can because again the proof is in the pudding these vaccines seem to be resistant

to the variance and that's what's spreading through Europe right now yeah yeah yeah yeah it's just a matter of time before they're here well they're I mean they're they are here but it But again, it's like, oh, this is the, I thought there was a new one that, um, Italy. Right, but our vaccines are resistant to these new variants you're saying, Justin.

I mean, uh, uh, so far, the one that's ripping through Europe is the UK variant that's affecting every European country except the UK. Yeah. So, right. Right. Uh, and, and part of that is because they've been vaccinating. Right. Right. Right. Well, like, like, like the rate, the rates in the UK, if I can pull up the, uh, the Bloomberg. There's a new Italian variant that made them reshut everything down, but maybe that's just the UK one re-ripping through. It's called Canoli 19, and it's coming soon.

Yeah, in the U.S. 21% of the population has at least one shot in the United Kingdom, 36.6% of the population has had at least one shot. And they have a think like a two-week head start on us and a smaller population. But it's like if you look at France, 7%, Spain, 8%, Italy, 7%, Germany, 7%. And they just shut down the AstraZeneca vaccine that was developed in England that I think the majority of the English vaccine recipients have gotten. uh because there were blood clots yeah in the in i think the netherlands like seven blood clots and they've shut it down in like all the major european countries when it's not even statistically above what you would expect for naturally occurring blood clots yeah i don't like that

yeah that's that's not good to pause that whole thing over unless i mean unless they have data that says otherwise that seems statistically more than that there's data to suggest that getting the vaccine makes you more immune to blood clots statistically fewer people have gotten it

with the vaccine than would on a statistical average which is crazy to me it is it is crazy that they are pausing this

and that's that's all I'm saying man is that like uh uh just just watch watch those rates because they're already turning around the the COVID and the hospitalization rates in Europe are already kind of going up and you're right Brian they are locking stuff down again in Italy um but it looks like it is just a re it's just the um the UK variant going crazy oh no no I have no idea I'm not I'm not a variant tracker to be to be honest with you like I am I am uh uh uh Oh, man, I was going to introduce you as variant tracker, Justin Robert Young, every time you're on the show. I thought you were starting a new podcast called Variance, Variants, Variants.

Yeah, I'm, I'm sniffing the ground and I'm like, you know, rubbing the consistency of the leaves. VX3. I'm looking forward to the VX3 show. Let me know if I can ever be great. Well, I'm glad you got it. I'm glad we're getting it. I'm glad Brian has a chance to get it tomorrow. And everyone out there should freaking get it and muscle through whatever. side effects you might get because hot damn. To me, I'm excited mostly because it just feels like progress. Feels like the first piece of real progress. Yeah. For me personally, but also

just in general, like, okay, this is not done. We're not done, but this is like a major step. So I can only do my part, which is do my shot, right? That's all I can do. I think, yeah, this is the reason why we're

watching a lot of like lockdown stuff kind of be relaxed right now is because I feel like emotionally the country's kind of out of resolve past the vaccine. Yeah. Like I don't know what would need to happen

after we all get vaccinated if this thing ripped through again that would repair our soul. Like I feel like this is that the goal was all right, totally upend humanity

for as long as it takes to get to the vaccine. We did it. Let's land the plane and now we rebuild. And I think that there's an emotional capacity to that. Like that that is

on a on a mass level. Yeah. Well, we're in a weird crossroads in terms of like just I don't know, this feeling of, I feel positive about it and also really tentative about it. Like, I feel like we're just at a point where like, all right, can we just do this part? Can we not have any wars break out for a minute?

Can we, you know, like all the normal international intrigue that happens around us, can all that just pause for a second? And let's, and let's just see if we can get over this hump. And then is it really a hump? Is it a smaller hump to a bigger hump? is there a downhill from this will i ever go to vegas again like i got questions you know some of them are personal like that and some of them are vast and uncontrollable and things beyond my control i was actually thinking about because i still have this 50 dollar jet suite uh voucher that i haven't used in a year uh that i was like uh i was

like god damn like you know i will be fully vac i will have antibodies before i leave it's like like, did I just like go to Vegas for a night? Like I'm not going to have any furniture in my apartment. Like should we just like, should we just go to Vegas for a night? Like while it's still super easy and fairly cheap on the West Coast. Yeah. Plus it's, you know, still kind of emptyish there compared to what a normal Vegas time is. Oh, no. Have you seen this stuff from last weekend?

I've been seeing videos of, uh, beaches, Vegas, Disney, like, the Flood gates have reopened. Oh, well, I hope then I hope I hope everyone, go get your vaccines, everybody. Exactly. Holy shit. All right. Well, this has been an enlightening conversation and I can't wait to report back on how crappy I feel on Friday. Hopefully it doesn't do

anything to me. I might try them. No, I think, I think you'll be great and good luck a bit getting, getting yours as well. I'm treating it like I'm buying end game tickets, man. That's it. PS5. That's right. Just go. Just just that was like the funny

I was sitting in that line and I'm like you want to know what? It's so funny that all the hype beasts are going to be vaccinated like all all the sneaker heads are all going to be the first ones vaccinated. Yep, that's right. So true.

Yeah, but also Brian, don't don't treat it like PS5. You won't get it for another six months. You got to, you got it. Oh, damn. It's got to be like a concert or a movie ticket. That's the focus. All right.

have the wrong date on here. Awesome. Brian, he says, I have listened to the morning stream since the beginning and enjoy it very much. March 16th is my 52nd birthday and every year I like to listen to birthday by the Beatles. It always makes me smile and feel good, even though another year has slipped by. When I was in my 20s, I took guitar lessons and birthday was one of the first songs that I learned to play. I would love to see if you can find a unique cover of birthday for my birthday this year. Good luck. And is it too early for a fish sandwich? No. But first, you have to do this. Happy birthday to you.

Okay. We had to do that. That was a deal. And then the fish sandwich is right here. Hey, two are I getting a fish sandwich? There you go. Nailed it. Nice. Signed John in Michigan. All right. This is a more recent cover of birthday that I've been happy to hear. this is a guy that has come up recently because a new cover of oh shoot is the song higher the Van Halen song higher that's got Sammy Hagar's vocals get higher and higher I can't remember the name of the song is it just higher

it might just be called higher anyway Sammy Hagar covered birthday by the Beatles as part of a tribute to Paul McCartney that came out in 2014 and it's great and we're going to play it right now. Here is Sammy Hagar and birthday. Oh, it's a, the song is dreams. Dreams. That's right. Yeah, it's a bad song. That's a bad song. No, no offense. It's just a terrible song. It's just not a van.
